Always Competition and therefore always 510 hp
For the first time in M3 history, there is a BMW M3 Touring. That car was presented in June and now it is also known what it should cost. The starting price of the first BMW M3 Touring ever remains just under 140 mille.
€138,967. That is the minimum amount BMW wants to receive for the BMW M3 Touring. Incidentally, there is no ‘regular’ M version, the BMW M3 Touring is always executed as Competition xDrive and that means: always four-wheel drive and a 510 hp and 650 Nm strong six-cylinder engine. The M3 Sedan costs €136,413 as a Competition and so the price difference between the sedan and Touring is relatively minimal.
With its 510 hp, the BMW M3 Competition xDrive Touring speeds up to 100 km/h in 3.6 seconds. From the outside you can recognize the M3 Touring by its four exhaust pipes, heavy bumper work, huge wheels, side skirts and firmly knocked out wheel arches. Those who want to further dress up the appearance of their M3 Touring can opt for the M Carbon package, in which BMW has put all kinds of extras made of carbon fiber. Also on the option list: carbon ceramic brakes and track tires. BMW is not kidding.
As in the M3 Competition in the sedan form, the full power of the M3 Competition Touring is also sent to the rear wheels. This means that you can also cross it and take your luggage or pet with you. Make sure that everything is firmly in place. The luggage compartment measures 500 liters and with the rear seats folded is 1,510 liters, so enough space for everything to fly from hot to her.
