AWD now showing in German configurators for €4K

mbanck · 10-26-2020, 02:15 AM

People on motor-talk.de report that they saw the AWD version in the dealer configurators with a 4000 EUR (excluding VAT) markup over the RWD version, see e.g. (in german) https://www.motor-talk.de/forum/bmw-...6#post60292018

This has not been independently confirmed so far I think.

Sounds about right

makes sense... In Canada for being a brand new generation the RWD car is priced very competitively vs the competition which are all older. Guess they are making it in back in the AWD versions that will occupy the majority (?) of order fills this gen

The G8C M3/4 went through a major price hike in Canada. Speccing a M4C to my liking (not fully loaded) comes to ~35% more than what I paid for my 2015 DCT M4 back in 2014

its crazy with car prices ... MB for 2021 model years basically hiked prices on SUV by 5k for no reason and with no additional equipment, and i did not realize how easily it is to spec a X5 north of 100k in Canada, time changes!

Either their old fx hedges rolled off or more likely they are just trying to claw back some revenues any way they can.

suppose that for ~100k cad well equipped, closest competition don't look as appealing as G80/2

I was hoping AWD would cost $3k or less in the US market... I know different markets have different pricing structures but $4k is more likely now IMO

I thought it was like $2500 or $3500 in the us market to begin with?

$4k euros is like $4.7k USD so lets hope its not that...

Pricing has not been released yet for the G8X M xDrive, but they charge +$2k for xDrive on the M340i. I sure hope the G8X M xDrive is not double that!

Theres definitely a lot more going on than in the M340i xDrive so I would think it would be more but hopefully not double. I am stuck between getting on the list for a C8 and buying a winter car and an AWD G80 and that increase in xDrive price might be the nail in the coffin lol

AWD electric motor c8 will be made available and could double as a winter?

Looks like German pricing in euros is about 10% higher than US prices in dollars. So my guess is that we’ll see closer to $3.5k for M-Xdrive here.

I think a 3000-3500 upcharge for awd is probable for the US and Canada markets, you would think it would be lower for the larger volume markets

Agree with this.

That it could haha im assuming that won't be coming for years though and im not the most patient person

BMW is definitely catching a break with Chevy wanting a 5k nonrefundable deposit despite having absolutely no idea whats going on with allocations
I think the awd package being under $4000 for the G80 will probably be the deciding factor for me...no idea if they'll throw in some kind of high performance all season tires though I've argued with far too many people about the g80 front end to start all over from scratch and argue about the c8 rear end haha
