With the disappearance of the V8 in the BMW M3 we are wondering how BMW is going to make the new M3 a desirable car. The real purists swear by the six-in-line engine but the rumor was spread that the BMW M3 would perform less with this engine. Now, rumors are spread that this won’t influence the performance of the car!
With the disappearance of the V8, a lot of weight will be saved, it will decrease with 136 kilograms. The power of the six-in-line will have a maximum of 450 bhp, but the amount of torque will be really high because of the turbo(s). Up to 135 Nm of torque will be added which makes the acceleration just a bit faster. Combine this with the sporty exterior of the car and you know that the men in Affalterbach and Ingolstadt have a lot of work to do to match a car like this!
