The new BMW 8 Series Convertible

The new BMW 8 Series Convertible is the obvious choice when it comes to four-person sports car luxury. Elegant and flamboyant, it takes journeys from everyday to extraordinary.

Step inside the BMW 8 Series Convertible for thrilling luxury. Multifunctional seats crafted from Merino Leather are concealed beneath a signature fabric roof that retracts in just 15 seconds. Transform the driving atmosphere with ambient interior lighting, immersive harman/kardon loudspeaker, wind deflector technology, and innovative seat vents that pump hot air through the headrests to keep necks warm when the top’s down.

BMW convertibles have a strong performance pedigree, and the new 8 Series Convertible doesn’t disappoint. The athletic M850i xDrive model rockets to 60mph in under 4 seconds, powered by a TwinPower Turbo 8-cylinder engine at 530bhp.

With speed comes stability, and the new BMW 8 Series Convertible integrates BMW Motorsport-inspired suspension, rear-wheel steering and rollover protection systems. Control it all from the M Sport steering wheel, coupled with the latest BMW iDrive infotainment system that features two large touch displays, attention-free controls, heads-up display and voice command response.

The shape of the new 8 Series Convertible shares its essential DNA with the 8 Series Coupé, so expect sleek lines and muscular haunches complemented by sharp detailing, from wraparound headlights to symmetrical twin exhausts. The 20-inch alloy wheels pack a punch without monopolising the low profile of the new BMW 8 Series Convertible: in fact, with the top down you’ll barely realise it ever had a roof at all.
