Eighteen thousand.
Which unfortunately will not make it to production

However that is wheel torque not motor torque, which is misleading.

That interior is a non starter for me too. Too basic and model 3 like. I would rather go 0-60 in 9 seconds than to live with that interior.

Keep in mind, that this is not entirely, how the cars will look. The weird rear end will look normal, cause the lights will sit lower due to the missing active aero fans in the production version.
In the end, this is still a concept car of a concept car.
But yeah, the interior is hit or miss. I like the idea and I'm eager to see it live.

I guess I'll be stuck keeping a E/F model running til I die, or maybe a G15. No way I ever drive a car with a rear end or interior that fugly.

Unfortunately for me (subjective) BMW design in and out is just not for me with these new models coming. I think the two BMW’s I have right now might be my last.

This is not the M3 EV though. Just a Neue Klasse prototype using the new technology.

I agree 100%. good looking sports car front end with an suv crossover rear end. looks like absolute garbage and ruins the entire car for me.

my first and last 2 BMWs will be the M340i pure ICE and M550i pure ICE. EVs are like copy and paste, anybody can make cool ones.

With the new LCI headlights currently on the m3 makes sense they were getting us ready for what this future M3 would look like

True. And we all knew years ago what this neue klasse look was going to be since the spy photos have been around for a long time. I’m getting one more G82 before they end production and I’m going to keep that one for a long time (unless I’m forced to a bigger car which will then put me into the M5, RS6 Avant, AMG GT63, Panamera decision).

It’s just not quite the same without engine/exhaust noise. Sounds like a furious electric eraser.
