I've heard that the 750i is likely to be replaced by a B58-based PHEV while the M760i will be replaced by an N63-based PHEV (same drivetrain that will power the middle X8 model). Top G70 model will be i7 BEV.

All three BMW X8 variants will be plug-in hybrids: base model with B58 PHEV drivetrain, middle model with N63 PHEV drivetrain, and X8 M with new S68 PHEV drivetrain.
