The 2022 BMW M8 is the Bavarian automaker's flagship luxury performance car, equipped with a 617-horsepower twin-turbo 4.4-liter V8 and sport-tuned all-wheel-drive system that put it up there with some of the quickest cars on the market. Not only is it quick, the M8 is supremely comfortable thanks to an adaptive suspension setup that goes from racetrack stiff to boulevard cruiser soft at the push of a button.

Based on the revived 8 Series first introduced in 2019, the BMW M8 is available as a coupe, convertible and four-door Gran Coupe (reviewed separately). The two-door models compete with the Porsche 911 Turbo, Bentley Continental GT, Aston Martin DB11 and other six-figure grand tourers. How does it stack up against such lofty company?

Which M8 does MatoCar recommend?

The BMW M8 returns for 2022 with just one trim level: the Competition, so the choice is made for you. But with that model's 17 extra horsepower, throaty M Sport exhaust system, more aggressive suspension tuning and dedicated Track mode, it's probably the best version of this high-performance luxury car.

The 2022 BMW M8 comes as either a coupe or convertible. (The four-door Gran Coupe is reviewed separately.) The M8 was previously available in two trim levels, but BMW has chosen to only bring back the higher-performance Competition model.
