And thanks to an optimization by AC Schnitzer, it becomes an even more serious contender for the smallest "real" M.

As expected, the focus is on the previous top version or the model with the dynamic M sports package ex works.
Rich increase in performance
The performance boost for the M240i comes with a 3-year guarantee, corresponding certificates and increases the performance of the supercharged 3-liter B58 in-line 6-cylinder to a whopping level 420 hp and 600 Nm. A worthy sound thanks AC Schnitzer sports rear silencer made of stainless steel is also guaranteed. The system ends in two carbon-coated tailpipes on each side. And for interested parties who only care about the looks, AC Schnitzer has individual ones for the four-cylinder 2-series tailpipes in different versions in the range. A special sports suspension for the M240i can be combined with factory adaptive damping to obtain a ride height reduction of up to 25mm, improve appearance and optimize road holding.
The alternatively available one offers the same depth Sport spring package. Previously only available for 6 cylinders, it is now also being developed for the 2-series with four cylinders. Of course, AC Schnitzer can also put the M240i on a new one on request wheelset. You have the choice between the AC1 and AC4 rims, which are manufactured using the flow-forming process. Both available in two different finishes and measure 8,5×20 inches. The tires are 245/30R20 at the front and 255/30R20 at the rear. The AC1 is also optionally available in 8,5×19 inches.
