New 2021 BMW M3 Competition Package Specs – The new BMW 3-series on the market for a little under a year now, and a new 4-series Coupe on the road, it’s time for BMW M to roll out the latest version of the icons-the M3 and M4. We are not 100-percent sure what the car will look like, but we know a lot about them. Here’s what we’ve learned so far about G80 and G82.

Like its predecessor, the new M3 and M4 will be powered by a 3.0-liter twin-turbo inline-six. This is not the same machine, though. Instead, they will get the new BMW M S58 engine, which makes its debut in X3 and X4 M. This machine is based on the usual BMW B58 straight-six which has been around since 2015, mainly powering the new M340i and fifth-gen Toyota Supra. Our colleague in the car and driver showed that S58 had a bigger hole and a shorter stroke than B58, for more revs.

In the standard X3 and X4 M, the engine makes 473 horsepower and 442 lb-ft torque, while in competition, it makes 503 HP and the same amount of torque. We hope the characters to be similar in M3 and M4.

This competition will offer a little more power than the standard version, while CS will bring the greater focus of tracks and various weight-saving measures. CSL will bring back the multilevel BMW signboard to replace the old GTS model. Imagine the monster hardcore tracks, with coil-overs, more power, more Aero, sticky tires and less weight. BMW might just offer an M4 CSL-instead of M3.

Last year, the head of BMW R&D Klaus Frolich promises R&T that the next M3 and M4 will offer manual transmission options. The clearer picture appeared a few months later when Britain’s Car magazine reported that BMW had a Rear-drive, manual-transmission version of M3 and the next M4 in the pipeline. The magazine said this model is called “Pure, ” Although the name is not final.

This is the entry-level version of the M3 and M4, expected to bring the lowest price tag of the model range. Of course, the significance of the back-drive manually-only version M3 and M4 means the rest of the lineup will be different.

In the same interview,  it says the next M3 and M4 will get a four-wheel-drive system like that in the new M5 and M8. The system offers a torque separation that fully varies between the front and rear axles, and can even remove the front shaft entirely for Drift and burnouts.

It will mark the first time M3 and M4 will be offered with four wheels driven, but unlike with any M car equipped with the system, it will be optional.

Currently, all new BMW M cars, storing M2 and still-in-production M4, use eight-speed torque-converter Automatika. It is in contrast to the dual-clutch gearbox of its predecessor. While it is easy to assume the next M3 and M4 will go torque-converter, too, there is a possibility that may not occur.

Cars and drivers reported that the seven-speed dual-clutch from Exit M3 and the M4 might stick around for a new model. Frank Van Meel told us in 2017 that the BMW M embrace of traditional cars doesn’t mean it’s leaving DCTs direct.

Starting with the E36 generation and continuing with the last two generations of the M3, BMW has offered an iconic M car in three different body styles. As the latter, there will almost certainly be an M3 Sedan, plus an M4 Coupe and convertible. Recent Spy Video’s upcoming 4-Series convertible reveals that BMW has thrown out the folding Hardtop for a soft-top traditional cloth. That means the next M4 ‘ Vert will likely be much lighter than its predecessor.

Autocar magazine reported that BMW will also make the M4 Gran Coupe as a more stylish alternative to the M3, but we are not 100 percent sure of it. BMW does not offer the M version of the 4-series Gran Coupe with previous generations.

As you would expect, BMW has tested the M3 and M4 in the Nürburgring, giving us an early look at the car. And listen. The car has a record of the machine muted, but one that is still clearly straight-six. Blame the lack of volume of new European noise regulation, and hope that the engine noise will be enhanced by car speakers.

2021 BMW M3 Concept

Last month, BMW revealed the concept of 4, which previews the 4th-generation Series. It has enough large kidney Grille, which you may notice. Spy photos and videos of both the M3 and the upcoming M4 show that the Grill like this is the possibility for a couple. It’s hard to tell definitively by camouflage, but don’t be surprised if M3 and M4 take inspiration designs from concept 4.

There’s still a lot we don’t know about M3 and M4 like prices, number performance, dimensions, and more. We also don’t know when it will arrive. We heard there was a possibility that one or both would be revealed in the last month of the Frankfurt Motor Show, but obviously, that hasn’t happened yet. A reveal some time next year seems like the most likely scenario.
