Performance

The new M3 Sedan offers improved handling and steering because of its lowered chassis and optimized downforce.

With the front bumper redesigned, the aerodynamics of the car contributes to its road stability, improving grip and agility while cornering at high speeds.

Also, the Active M Differential system optimizes traction distribution between the front and rear wheels, maintaining stability even under harsh road conditions.

Exterior

M3’s exterior has been reworked to include a lither bonnet and a new power dome. The front bumper receives new double grills. From the back, the rear is similar to current models while the side receives more fluent lines.

The body itself has been lowered while the headlights have been extended to reach around the side.

Interior

The interior of the new M3 is typical for a luxury sports car. Covered in a grey and black theme, the controls and placement of the air intakes give it an executive look.

The steering wheel features more controls while the door on the driver’s side hosts a more generous panel. A glossy LCD display has been placed on the right side of the driver that controls the navigation system.
