The BMW Group presented a new concept at the annual design exhibition held on Lake Como in Italy. It was called Speedtop and has a body in the style of a three-door station wagon. In fact, this is a development of last year's Skytop, but if a year ago the group needed time to decide on the start of production, then in the case of the Speedtop, the prospects have already been announced. The car is promised to be released in a small series and it will not be affordable.
BMW calls the Speedtop the design quintessence of Bavarian station wagons, although the concept has only three doors. The new model has virtually the entire lower part of the body in common with the 2024 project: the Speedtop has familiar lighting equipment, a radiator grille, a hood with a longitudinal stamping and muscular rear arches.
The roof, developed specifically for the Speedtop, received the same stamping that is used on the hood. The hard top made it possible to form rear side windows, which the Skytop did not have, but they are not intended for passengers, since the concept does not have a rear sofa. Instead, a pair of niches for luggage bags were created, a set of which is included with the concept. The three-door also has a full-fledged trunk, divided into two floors. Among other differences are 14-spoke wheels developed specifically for the Speedtop.
The interior of the car, including the cargo compartment, is finished with the most expensive materials from the BMW range in a combination of brown, echoing the body color, and cream tones. There were no changes in the architecture, as in 2024 - the concept's interior is completely copied from the production BMW 8-series.
Judging by the official announcement, the engine was also borrowed from the same model. BMW does not directly talk about the power unit of the station wagon, only stating the most powerful V8 in the portfolio. Accordingly, with a high degree of probability we are talking about the 4.4-liter V8 from the M8 Competition, developing 625 hp and 750 Nm.
BMW promises to build 70 production copies of the Speedtop, orders for which are already open. The price is not named, but, according to some reports, it will exceed 500 thousand euros.
