SCOOP! 2014 BMW M3 CAUGHT TESTING




Brenda Priddy & Co. have this time succeeded capturing the next generation BMW M3 sedan. Thanks to their shutterbugs, we are able to bring you the first heavily disguised images of the 2014 BMW M3. Now, the new BMW M3 is going to be a totally different brute when compared with the present generation. The E90 BMW M3 boasts a thumping V8 under its bulging hood. The new M3 though is rumoured to go back to its old ways.

An in-line six-cylinder configuration might make return to the BMW M3 this time either with one or two turbochargers. Whatever may be the configuration of the powerplant under the bonnet, don’t expect power figures under 450 bhp and stratospheric amounts of torque to pulverize your spine the moment to step on the power pedal. Now, the next generation of the BMW M3 will be based on the upcoming standard 3 Series sedan.

Also, it is believed that the new BMW M3 will get a few touches from the recently unveiled i-brand cars from BMW. This would include new “angle eye” LED daytime running lamps and keeping with the design tradition, the twin-kidney grille will be more upright. That said, being an M3 the car will also have few winglets jutting out from the body surface for extra bit of downforce which will be crucial.

The test mules pictured here featured black 19 inch rims. If you look closely you might notice the subtle design cues that BMW designers have adopted from the i-brand cars showcased earlier. The twin-kidney grille has been pulled back towards each of its ends which gives the car a more hunkered down look similar to the BMW i8 Concept seem before. The new 3-Series might debut later this year with the M3 rolling off in 2013-14.
