According to Jörg Bartels, the M performance car sales boss; BMW are constantly looking through the model ranges to see which vehicles fit their strategy and can therefore be developed into a performance car (M Sport). 

“I will say again what the boss of BMW M has stated in the past – all BMWs are eligible for an M model. We will see how Audi and Mercedes go with that.” This is what Bartels had to say about the concept of a BMW X1M.
