BMW M8 ute and Gran Coupe – so much want for a fast pickup truck

Our mouths collectively dropped when BMW revealed images of the BMW Concept 8 Series, late last week.

Prepare to drop your mouths even further with this awesome rendering of what could one day be the world’s fastest ute. That’s pickup truck for our international readers.

This brilliant concept was designed by X-Tomi Design and shows a Commodore-style ute with a single piece side.

While there are no details so far on the new coupe, the original 8 Series sported a stonking V12 in one of its configurations. Given BMW currently has a V12 in its 7 Series line up, we’re salivating at the thought of it living under the bonnet of this thing.

A ute has never been mentioned, of course – and, sure, is unlikely to ever happen – but, we can only dream!

X-Tomi Design also threw together a rendering of a potential M8 Gran Coupe, which looks equally as stunning. Let’s hope the final 8 Series production vehicle doesn’t lose any of the visual appeal of its concept design.

What do you think of the design? Would you like to see a BMW M8 ute?
