Same reason as for LCI differences. See for example here (from this dedicated thread):

Was wondering if you see any LCI timetables being moved forward or backward given the chip shortages and knock on effects to production/deliveries? |

As the 8 series are receiving their light updates in 3/22, will they receive the new engines like S68 that X5/6s are getting with their LCI?

Well,Well,Well,Well.
Yes that is an X1M. To accompany the X1 xDriveM35i With everyone distracted by The IAA mobility. Super sleuth Wilco Blok caught these on the move. I reached out and the car they were "seriously considering" has moved forward to production status. It makes sense when compact performance SUVs are popular with the GLA 45 AMG and Audi RSQ3 and Sportback models and the VW T-Roc R. Makes perfect sense for the X1M to join in the fun. Engine still should be a four cylinder turbo mated to awd BMW xDrive. No specifics yet but that should filter in the next few days but expect close to or around 400PS? Competition model?

Great information and very much appreciated.
To the OP I noticed that you had heard/seen very feint reference to a G42 M245i but that mention has been removed during your latest update. Is there any reason for this or perhaps an update for the LCI in 04/25? Also the comment that the drivetrain/suspension in the G87 M2 as being the same as the G82 M4. Does that mean that the M2 will have the same power outputs as the M4 or detuned? Thanks. |

Makes sense as the M240i is just the RWD version of the M240iX rather than the all new M2 so presumably easier to add to the production line. Also the UK official on sale date of the G42 is late January 2022 so gives some time to see and test drive a M240iX before ordering a MY23 M240i whereas it's going to be even longer to see/drive an M2. The added wait and cost makes me more likely to go with the M240i but just interested to know how much HP daylight there's going to be between the B58 and S58 in the M2. I'm also currently driving a MK8 Golf R and, software issues aside, I'm missing a 6 cylinder coupe more than I thought I would and want to get back into one ASAP.

It's a bit of a shame in my opinion that the G31 is available as a 530e only whereas the G30 is available in 545e as well.
It'd be nice to see a more powerful PHEV option for G61 as well as BEV options for the touring.
