M3 Touring arrives on the market this semester

According to some media, BMW's long-awaited M3 Touring sports station wagon could be unveiled as early as next month.

The M3 Touring will be powered by a 3.0-litre, six-cylinder, twin-turbocharged engine with 375 kW / 510 hp and 650 Nm of torque in the Competition edition.

The engine will apparently be paired with an 8-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission, with xDrive all-wheel drive.

The braking system with 380mm front and 370mm rear discs takes care of stopping, while the optional carbon-ceramic brakes have 400mm front and 380mm rear discs.

The wheels are 18 and 19 inches, respectively 19 and 20 inches in the Competition version.

The car will also have the most advanced traction and stability control systems.

The package for the new M3 Touring will also include the M aero body kit (modified front bumper with larger air vents, wider fenders, set of more striking sills, rear diffuser, rear spoiler...), hood with air vents, suspension, sports exhaust, sports seats and steering wheel...
