The forthcoming BMW M3 is set to offer buyers a significant choice in powertrains, with options for both the classic internal combustion engine and a new electric variant.
This move is part of BMW’s broader initiative to introduce the Neue Klasse platform, which emphasizes flexibility in propulsion methods.
The platform is expected to underpin a range of models, providing a scalable architecture that can accommodate various powertrain configurations.
The introduction of electric power in the M3 aligns with BMW’s commitment to electrification and reducing carbon emissions, without compromising on the high-performance standards associated with the M3 nameplate.
Combustion-engined M3 will draw heavily on today’s car, but with styling influence from the Neue Klasse
Electric M3 is unlikely to use ‘iM3’ name
