Le han preguntado al jefe de BMW M, Frank van Meel, el por qué un SUV en vez de un coupe para hacer el primer M aparte de la gama normal de BMW. Simple y llanamente: la gente quiere ahora un SUV
«When we did the M1, every car company that wanted to say ‘I have something special’ built a sports car — that was the segment everyone wanted to enter,”
“If you look today at the biggest, most important, and fastest-growing segment, it’s clearly the SUV segment. And, in comparison to other manufacturers, we were still lacking this ultimate expressive luxury flagship at the top of M.»
