Recently, we got some spy shots of the BMW 8-Series. The car shown is in convertible form, and is still under heavy camouflage. The Bavarian Gran Tourer has been in production since 2018 and now, three years later, it’s time for a refresh. The spy shots show us an 8-Series Convertible, running tests under heavy camouflage and, right away, we can spot a few noticeable changes.

We recently got some spy footage of a BMW 8-Series Convertible and despite the camouflage, we get a pretty good idea of how the revised version of the 8-Series would look like. The lower portion is dominated by air inlets and the grille is expected to be slightly different. The headlights don’t seem to be touched at first glance, but a careful look reveals they are slightly slimmer than the current G15.

There are some changes to the rear too, although not as substantial. We see new LED patterns on the taillights and a slight change to the bumper. And then, there’s the fake exhaust tips, each of them hiding smaller dual exhaust pipes (sigh).

The footage includes some interior shots as well. They reveal a slight change on the inside. This new design for the infotainment screen is expected to be accompanied by software updates. This means that the facelifted G15 model will not get the divisive big screen we are starting to see in the brand’s electric vehicles.

There might be some engine updates as well, although it is too early to tell. We will get more details as the official introduction gets near. We expect this to happen sometime in 2022.
