New BMW 8 Series Concept Leaks Ahead Of Official Debut
The new BMW 8 Series was scheduled to be unveiled later today at the Concorso d'Eleganza Villa d'Este in Lake Como, but has been leaked online. The new grand tourer from BMW is a hark back to the original 8 Series from the 90s. The new 8 Series will be a super-coupe of sorts with a power engine under the hood, a big boot and luxurious interiors. Although the car that has been leaked is just a concept, the actual version of the 8 Series will be unveiled next year as a production model.
Highlights
- New 8 Series Concept resurrects the 8 Series badge
- Will be the new flagship offering from BMW in the Grand Tourer body style
- Production version to be available next year with at least a V8 engine
The new BMW 8 Series was scheduled to be unveiled later today at the Villa d'Este Concours d'Eegance in Lake Como, but has been leaked online.

Although the car that has been leaked is just a concept, the actual version of the 8 Series will be unveiled next year as a production model.
Judging from the design, the 8 Series promises to be a STUNNER! In fact, knowing BMW, most of what you see in the concept version of the 8’er will most probably make it to the production model with the exception of a few selective trinkets. The new 8 Series gets a large and bold kidney grille with an updated approach to the vertical slats. The headlights will be a set of slender LED or lazer units that get inbuilt LED daytime running lights. The new 8 Series, just like the original is much sharper and angular around the front of the car with sloping bonnet and a front bumper with huge vents. The wheel arches are very wide and get inbuilt vents too along with a set of massive alloy wheels and contrast coloured brake callipers.
Around the rear, there is a bit of i8 thrown into the mix with the new design language. The rear bumper, like the front, has two massive vents and a set of very distinctive tail lamps. The car also gets a dual exhaust tips that seem to be finished in aluminium. Although not much else is known about the car just yet, expect the new 8 Series to get a V8 that powers the M5 or a V12 engine that powers the range topping 760i with maybe even more power. Although the original 8 Series never had a M version, we expect BMW to have one to take on the likes of the S63 AMG coupe.
