iRacing announced that the BMW M Hybrid V8 will receive its Evo package as part of the 2026 Season 3 release. Check out the preview video, showcasing the car in action at the German Hockenheim Ring and the Belgian Spa-Francorchamps circuit.
iRacers who already own the original iRacing BMW M Hybrid V8 will receive the upgraded car as a free automatic update.
Racing under the premier Le Mans Daytona h (LMDh) regulations, the M Hybrid V8 Evo competes for overall victories in the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship (GTP class) and the FIA World Endurance Championship (Hypercar class).
The BMW M Hybrid V8 Evo is the updated, second-generation iteration of BMW’s top-tier prototype endurance racing car, introducing development “joker” updates permitted under the sport’s strict five-year homologation rules.
It’s powered by a BMW P66/3 4.0-liter twin-turbocharged V8 engine, and a rear-mounted 50Kw MGU supplied by Bosch. This powertrain delivers 671bhp (500 kW) and 650 Nm torque, capped by LMDh regulations.
