Kicking off a race team is exciting, and the BMW M2 Racing is a solid pick for a starter race car, especially for entering grassroots or customer racing series. Why? Starting at about $112,000, it’s an affordable entry into professional racing compared to GT4 or GT3 cars, which can run over $200,000.
BMW’s new HypersonX sound system makes a lively, all-around sound experience for their Neue Klasse electric vehicles.

Can a $56,000 Tesla Model 3 Performance take down a $120,000 BMW M3 CS in a U-Drag racing showdown? Edmunds Cars wanted to find out, so they pit both sedans against each other in a battle for the ages, or so we’d like to think.
Neue Klasse is set to get the all-new BMW Panoramic iDrive at the end of this year, an AI hub of sorts that merges four central elements into a unique display and operating concept. Put simply, it can transform the entire windshield into an interactive display.
