The Bavarian company BMW is working on a new 8-Series coupe, which will be officially presented at the end of this decade. The luxury car will try to compete with the Mercedes-Benz S-Class Coupe and the Bentley Continental GT models. According to a report from Autocar, the BMW 8 Series nameplate will be resurrected in 2020.

Presumably, the concept of a new flagship BMW 8-Series coupe will be presented in 2018. The serial version of the luxurious BMW will appear on the market in 2020. According to the British edition, the new BMW 8-Series model will have two different layouts – 2-door and 4-door coupe (like the BMW 6-Series Gran Coupe). In addition, the management of the Bavarian brand is discussing the prospects of cabriolet release. However, the final decision is still pending.
The release of a new flagship BMW 8-Series coupe has a tremendous prospective. The Bavarian company estimated that the Mercedes-Benz earns on sales of luxury S-Class models up to 1 billion euros. This is significantly higher than the profit from sales of the BMW 7-Series. Moreover, these cars are extremely popular in the US and China markets.
