AWD will overcome the added weight regardless in most cases.

OK so they basically did (again) a good job here with adding "only" 50Kg in the AWD variant.
If I wanted the AT I definetely would have gone with the AWD. I mean, you can literally switch to 2WD.
Amazing work BMW, amazing work.
(and I know I know, M5 and M8 had it already but still)
