There are markets for this type of M-performance car instead of Full M car. Like Mercedes 43 AMG. Always some half ass buyers can't quite afford real M car but still want all the M badges they can get and some performance. BMW is just following the trend. This is business, no manufacturer is stupid enough to "avoid" making money. Another example is X4/6 GLC/GLE coupe, etc SAV Coupe. Looks fxxking ridiculous to me. Personally think these drivers are idiots. But if u are in auto manufacturers' shoes, u will have no second thought but get into that market right away. Because money.
