I’m obviously just asking, speculating and having some fun with this. None of us know what they’re doing, but I’ll retort with this. When the G87 was still in camo undergoing testing, there was also what looked like an F87 EV testing so it’s not unheard of for BMW to use old models to test. The G80 will be in production until 2027, plenty of time in its lifecycle for other variants should they materialize. Maybe the M2 is just a support car which then raises another question; why bring a high powered RWD M car in the middle of winter in Norway, even if it’s sporting winter tires?
