G60

There’s a V8 up front, again, though it’s a different engine to the F90’s, being the S58 unit that arrived with the X5 M/X6 M. The gearbox houses an electric motor (drawing from an 18.6kWh battery, weighing around 220kg, under the floor), and the V8 and e-motor can work independently, driving through the transmission and xDrive all-wheel drive (in electric-only mode this is a 195bhp EV with 206lb ft, an 87mph top end and an official range of 43 miles) for a bombastic turn of straight-line speed: 0-62mph in 3.5sec and 189.5mph from a system capable of 717bhp and 738lb ft (it could cook up more torque but that’d break the gearbox).
