LCI BMW M2 Engine?

Is there any confirmation about what engine will be on the LCI M2?

Will retain the N55 or will be upgraded to the new B58?

That's the S71 v12 tri-turbo hybrid electric drivetrain making 2200 hp and 2000 lb/ft of torque. It will also be offered in 37 different colors and full merino leather in the interior ....

No joke: The U.S. spec sheet was released this morning: N55 all the way.

You'll have to look at the doc on a large screen. So far, this is all that's available.

Ask your dealer, he can get you one.

Also, the N55 has been a know fact for a while, don't see why people keep insisting otherwise. Don't you think BMW would've made a big fuss if they switched engines? They managed to write a whole press release for the LCI, which amounts to nothing more than fancier headlights.....
