BMW has officially unveiled today the third generation M6, in both coupe and convertible versions. The M6 badge has been firstly used back in 1987 and since then the model has evolved into a powerful, athletic, focused, luxurious and efficient sports car. On the US market the M6 Coupe will be the last to arrive and will go on sale in the late Summer of 2012 as a 2013 model.
As many rumors suggest it previously, the new M6 has dropped its V10 engine in favor of a new, 4.4-liter V8 equipped with with M TwinPower Turbo Technology . And despite its lower capacity the new V8 develops a total of 560 HP (an increase of 5 HP over the previous model) and a peak torque of 500 lb-ft. The engine is mated to a newly developed 7-speed double-clutch transmission designed to handle the high torque and high revving nature of the engine.
The new M6 Coupe will be immediately recognized as an elegant and sporty 6-Series. But it gets the usual M styling design cues that make it look more sporty and powerful. These elements include wider air intakes, stunningly contoured headlight units, the newly designed M kidney grille, which bears an "M6" badge and powerful 19-inch M light-alloy wheels.
