Bmw Electric M3 Vs Gasoline M3

BMW M boss Frank van Meel praises the electric M3 but assures enthusiasts a next. The 2027 BMW M3 will mark a paradigm shift for the legendary sports sedan, which will be built on a new platform and will offer both EV and gas powertrains.

Mike Reichelt, will be offered with an inline six-cylinder gasoline engine, and as an all-electric vehicle, possibly with four electric motors. Despite the differences in powertrains, both versions of the new M3, expected within two years, will look the same. SpyPix.

For the first time, BMW is offering the M3 with both a turbocharged inline‑6 petrol engine and a full-electric variant, delivering cutting-edge choice while staying true to M's heritage. That means the electric M3's power will be applied through the brand's new "Heart of Joy" performance control unit, which processes info such as road conditions up to 10 times faster than existing modules. This "superbrain" of sorts combines "high-precision handling, perfect traction and smooth operation," according to Reichelt.

The BMW M3 is going electric after 2026 and it could have more than 700 horsepower on tap. Here's what we know about it. BMW's new G84 M3 offers a choice between electric and petrol engines, showcasing powerful performance and eco-friendly technology.
