From the F series to the G series, the majority of the cars in the same config have had their weight move about 2% further to the front.
Obviously the G20 isn't out yet so I don't have weight figures for them, but if you look at G12 and G30 vs F02 and F10:
car type lbs %front %rear lbs f lbs r
740Li f02 4432 49.8 50.2 2207 2225
740Li g12 4195 51.4 48.6 2156 2039
528i f10 3814 49.4 50.6 1884 1930
530i g30 3746 51.5 48.5 1929 1817
So one chassis went up by 1.6% to the front and the other by 2.1%.
If we look at the current F30 and G80:
340i rwd 3704 51.2 48.8 1896 1808
340i xdrive 3858 52.8 47.2 2037 1821
m3 dct 3630 51.9 48.1 1884 1746
You'd imagine that a G80 M3 with an auto would be around 53% even without xdrive. With xdrive it should be closer to 55%.
FWIW this is the F90 M5
m5 f90 4370 54.7 45.3 2390 1980
