近日谍照记者再次拍到了宝马8系，这次拍到的车型采用了新的伪装并不是让人迷惑的标准黑白云纹伪装。大灯部分的伪装减少，可以看到前脸底部与上次谍照相比的一些变化。另外，这款车可能是MSport车型，当时它被装在一辆挂车上——它采用了时尚的轮圈，内部的硕大刹车盘清晰可见，车尾可见非常小的扰流唇。这是否意味着宝马即将发布8系车了呢？或许并不是。宝马仍需要对量产版进行一些调整。宝马注册了很多与8系有关的车辆名称，其中包括M8，除了轿跑车，还将有敞篷版本，未来还将有GranCoupe四门轿跑车版本。至于该车动力系统，至今也没有最新的消息，因此先前的传言应该还适用。该车将采用数字玻璃座舱和最新的辅助驾驶系统及自动功能。动力系统包括V8引擎，这台取自M5的4.4升双涡轮引擎功率达到600马力，但未来还将增加混动版和6.6升V12引擎。新车将于明年一季度发布，而混动和M版本则将于2019年发布。

BMW 8 Series Spied Wearing Different Camo

BMW has been caught again with its forthcoming 8 Series, this time sporting a fresh camouflage wrap that isn’t quite as bewildering as the standard white-on-black swirl. There also appears to be a bit less covering around the headlights, and we see some changes on the lower fascia as compared to the last round of spy photos and video. We also see what could be an M Sport model loaded on a car hauler – it’s wearing a set of snazzy wheels with massive brake rotors clearly visible behind them, along with what appears to be a very slight spoiler lip on the backside.

Does all this mean BMW is getting closer to an 8 Series reveal? Probably not; if anything it seems BMW may still be working out the kinks and fine-tuning some of the design details for the production model. The automaker has trademarked numerous nameplates relating to the 8 Series – including M8 – and we know a convertible version will join the big coupe. There’s also the possibility of a four-door Gran Coupe version of what will ultimately become BMW’s flagship model.

We’ve heard nothing new on equipment or engines, so previous rumors still apply. That means the new 8 Series will likely have a full-on digital glass cockpit with the latest driving assists and autonomous functions. Power will almost certainly include a V8 with forced induction – the 600-horsepower 4.4 biturbo mill from the M5 being a likely candidate – but hybrid models and a 6.6-liter V12 to pay homage to the original 8 Series are certainly not out of the question.

The new 8 Series should be revealed sometime in the first quarter of 2018, with other variants such as hybrid or M models coming for 2019.
