G87 M2 gearbox choice will 99.99% be the one the G80 M3 / G82 M4:
- LS58 6-speed manual gearbox;
- M8HP76 M 8-speed auto gearbox (aka "ZF8" | ZF = Zahnradfabrik Friedrichshafen = Cogwheel Factory Friedrichshafen).
M-DCT (made by Magna PT, formerly known as "Getrag" | "PT" = powertrain | "Getr" refers to "Getriebe" = transmission) is discontinued from July 2021 onwards.
ZF and Magna PT (Getrag) are competitors.
