Why is the BMW M2's acceleration slower than other M models?

I recently test drove the BMW M2 and noticed that its acceleration felt slower compared to other M models. Is this a known issue or just a personal impression?

The BMW M2 does have a slightly slower acceleration due to its smaller engine size compared to other M models. However, it makes up for it in the overall driving experience and handling. Don't let the slow start discourage you from considering the M2.

I've experienced the same thing while test driving the M2. However, after speaking with some BMW enthusiasts, their advice was to consider adding some aftermarket modifications to improve its acceleration.

The M2 has a more balanced power delivery compared to other M models, making it feel slightly slower in acceleration but more controllable and enjoyable in daily driving. It's all about personal preference and what you value in a car.
