For the 2025 model year BMW gave the G87 M2 a mid-cycle update, raising the S58 3.0-liter twin-turbo inline-six to 473 hp. The six-speed manual remains the standard, no-cost gearbox and keeps the M2 firmly rear-wheel drive, sending 406 lb-ft to the rear axle through an Active M Differential (the eight-speed automatic gets a higher 442 lb-ft and is quicker). BMW quotes 0-60 mph in 4.1 seconds for the manual and a 177-mph top speed with the optional M Driver's Package. As the entry point to BMW M's coupe range, the stick-shift M2 is pitched squarely at the driving enthusiast and the track-day crowd.

BMW's claimed 0-60 mph for the 2025 manual is 4.1 s (0.1 s quicker than the launch car); the 8-speed automatic is quicker at 3.9 s. No independently instrumented test of the facelift manual was located, so the manufacturer claim is preferred. Read on the Wikipedia G87 update section, which transcribes BMW's stated figure.
