BMW has quietly upped the worth of its 2 Sequence Coupe, together with the M2, in keeping with the corporate’s web site. The automotive is between $1,600 and $2,750 costlier than earlier than, relying on trim.
Mid-model-year costs are pretty uncommon within the automotive business. Often, manufacturers wait till the subsequent mannequin 12 months to make modifications, add options, or improve pricing. BMW didn’t instantly reply for touch upon the worth improve when reached by Motor1.

There are seemingly no modifications to the two Sequence or the M2 to clarify the brand new pricing, not less than in keeping with BMW’s web site. However now we have a robust concept: tariffs. The Trump administration applied a blanket 25-percent tariff on all autos constructed exterior of the US beginning April 2. The US-market 2 Sequence coupe, together with the M2, is assembled at BMW’s plant in San Luis Potosi, Mexico. So it is totally topic to the tariffs.
It was solely a matter of time earlier than tariffs started affecting pricing on foreign-built fashions. BMW is among the many most uncovered to tariffs, as lots of its fashions and components are constructed completely exterior of the US. The corporate instructed the media in March it could “worth defend” all fashions till Could 1. After that, the corporate stated it plans to “reassess” its method. If we needed to guess, this worth improve will solely apply to automobiles delivered after Could 1.
BMW is not the one producer to make modifications to its lineup in response to tariffs. Ferrari elevated costs on a few of its automobiles to fight tariff expenses. Ford enacted an employee-pricing-for-all scheme in an effort to extend money stream and generate gross sales. Volvo canceled gross sales of its China-made S90 sedan for the US. Jeep paused manufacturing of its Compass and Wagoneer S in Mexico. Different automakers, like Audi, Lotus, Jaguar-Land Rover, and Volkswagen, have paused US shipments altogether.
None of BMW’s different fashions have seemingly been affected simply but. We suspect it is solely a matter of time, although. Automotive costs are anticipated to rise by round $3,600 on common as a result of tariffs. Costs for automobiles made within the US could also be much less affected, however contemplating uncooked supplies are nonetheless sourced from abroad, they don’t seem to be completely immune.
