Performance and Engine Specifications
The high-revving V8 engine presents a compelling blend of razor-sharp responses, a feverish appetite for revs and sustained power delivery across an extraordinarily wide rev band. The M TwinPower Turbo technology of the 4.4-litre unit includes a pair of turbochargers – positioned in the “V” between the cylinder banks and boasting optimised efficiency – and indirect charge air cooling, plus a direct fuel injection system working with maximum pressure of 350 bar. Another technological highlight is the cross-bank exhaust manifolds.
The engine in the M8 models is designed to deliver exceptional performance. The standard M8 Coupe and Convertible come with a 4.4-liter V8 engine that produces 600 horsepower and 553 lb-ft of torque. The M8 Competition models take it a step further, offering 617 horsepower and the same torque. This allows the M8 Competition Coupe to accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in just 3.0 seconds, while the Convertible does it in 3.1 seconds. The standard models are only slightly behind, with the Coupe reaching 60 mph in 3.1 seconds and the Convertible in 3.2 seconds.

The M xDrive all-wheel-drive system is standard, providing optimal traction and handling.
