A new report on BMW Blog says that the car will be revealed in October while the global market launch is expected around March 2016.

The two-door compact sports car gets the trademark kidney grille flanked by LED headlights with round LED DRLs. The front bumper houses big air intakes and wide radiator grille. The front fenders feature air vents along with muscular wheel arches and the rear gets LED tail lights, quad exhausts and a central diffuser.

This engine will be mated to either a 6-speed manual or a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. Top speed would be restricted to 250 km/h and the 0-100 km/h sprint could take just 4.5 seconds.
