What does the 'M' stand for in the BMW X8 M model?

I've been researching the new BMW X8 M model and I'm curious about what the 'M' stands for. I've seen some people say it stands for 'motorsport' but others have said it signifies 'performance'. Can you clarify?

The 'M' in BMW's performance models stands for 'motorsport'. It's a nod to the brand's racing heritage and the M division's focus on creating track-worthy vehicles.
