So, does this mean anyone can start slapping M badges on any BMW they choose?

So they are sticking M badges on everything they can, much like Mercedes and AMG?

The M badge has always been a great marketing tool. BMW is just taking advantage of it now.

If it allows them to stay competitive and keep making actual M2/3/4/5's then sure, what do I care really.
Maybe in a few years the base models will also become M Performance models, and then we can all argue about what makes a real M Performance car: "An M330i is not a real M Performance car, only an M340i is", LOL! Just makes all the actual old M cars that much cooler |

In the future, when everything is electric, only internal combustion engine will be M

Not true. The timeline being covered here is only through early 2021. The G26 4 Series Gran Coupe will not launch until the the second half on 2021 (though the press reveal may come as early as the second quarter).

Yes it's market introductions. Official launch comes earlier. This reiterates the launch to the market.
