A few days ago, some overseas media exposed a set of road test spy photos of the new BMW 8 Series open-top coupe. As a redesigned model, the new car mainly has made small adjustments to the appearance details, and it is expected that the vehicle machine and power system will also be optimized to a certain extent, and the overall change will not be too large.
In terms of appearance, the new car is mainly camouflaged on the front and rear of the car, from the contour point of view, the flat shape of the "double kidney" grille is basically consistent with the current model, the headlights still maintain a sharp shape, but the internal light group has obvious adjustments, two multi-angle LED daytime running lights are arranged closer, and the lamp beads are added on the outside. At the same time, from the perspective of the camouflage arrangement, the new car will adopt a multi-segment air intake opening design, and the bumper shape should also be adjusted.
The side of the test car was completely covered with camouflage, and details such as the vents behind the front fenders and the folding line at the doors were consistent with the current model. However, the test car is equipped with multi-spoke blackened wheels, which should appear in the list of options for the new model. The new car still maintains the elegant and smooth body lines of the current model, and the layout of the two doors and the open-top structure also highlight its personality positioning.
In terms of the rear, the main changes of the new car are concentrated on the tail lights, although its overall shape also maintains the narrow and long style of the current model, but the internal light group is obviously adjusted to a multi-layer design, which is expected to be more refined after lighting. The bumpers of the new car also retain horizontal reflective trim strips on both sides, and adopt a bilateral two-out exhaust layout, but the design of the bottom diffuser position may be changed.
In terms of interior, foreign media have previously exposed the interior spy photos of the new 8 series, and it is expected that the convertible version will also use the design. Overall, the new car has not significantly adjusted the interior, only increased the size of the floating central control screen, and is expected to continue to be equipped with the iDrive 7 car system.
In terms of power, the new car is expected to continue to be equipped with 3.0T and 4.4T turbocharged engines, and diesel versions will also be available. However, in order to meet the latest emission regulations, the new car may make certain adjustments to the power parameters and exhaust system.
