The BMW brand has long been associated with speed, performance, and excellence. The good news is that it's preparing to join the Rocket League pitch. In particular, the BMW M240i arrives in the game starting tomorrow, November 4. Don’t take too long to decide since it’s available for a limited period.
In real life, the BMW M240i comes with iconic stylings and power with the 3.0-liter TwinPower Turbo 6-cylinder engine. For the game, this vehicle is equipped with a torching rocket boost and a Dominus hitbox. This combination should be enough to let you go airborne to give those assists and goals.
The BMW M240i is priced at 1,100 Credits and comes with:
- BMW M240i Wheels. Cannot be used by other cars.
- Signature Thundernight Metallic Decal
- United In Rivalry Animated Decal. Changes color when going supersonic.

In addition, the BMW M240i is customizable with other Rocket League items. However, it’s important to note that licensed customization items can’t be used by the BMW M240i.
