BMW has announced the 2022 2-Series Coupe will be unveiled at the Goodwood Festival of Speed on July 8th.

The company is keeping details under wraps, but noted this will be their first world premiere at Goodwood. BMW went on to say the coupe will be unveiled at 9:00 a.m. local time and race up the hill 40 minutes later in the First Glance category.

It will be connected to an eight-speed automatic transmission, which sends power to an all-wheel drive system with an M sports rear differential.
