New BMW M3 Touring Features
Discover the latest offers and finance deals on the BMW M3 Touring, which effortlessly bridges the gap between breathtaking performance and excellent practicality.
Based on the BMW 3 Series, the M3 Touring introduces a huge dose of motorsport pedigree alongside an engineering masterclass from the BMW M division.
For those who do not need the practicality that is on offer in the M3 Touring, there is the M3 Competition, which is the same car underneath, but delivered as a handsome saloon instead.
Engines and Performance
The BMW M3 has always offered excellent high performance, and this latest G81 (that is the internal chassis code given by BMW M) is not lacking in textbook power or punch.
Its heart comes in the form of the racing-inspired, BMW M TwinPower Turbo inline 6-cylinder petrol engine, which produces a colossal 522bhp; the same found in the M3 Competition.
And if you were wondering about performance, the Touring is suitably M, with 0 to 62mph happening in a rapid 3.6 seconds, along with BMW xDrive all-wheel drive for enhanced grip all year round.
And if you thought all that performance means that practicality is actually dented, there is a massive 500-litre boot at your disposal, which increases to a colossal 1,510 litres with the rear seats folded.
Chassis and Handling
Like all BMW M models, the M3 Touring is another driver-focused masterclass, with the Touring mimicking the dynamic ability of its saloon sibling.
Focused fine-tuning has been carried out as part of intensive testing on multiple racetracks, country roads, and urban routes.
With an increased high torsional stiffness applied to the body and chassis mountings, this ultra-practical M3 Touring is blessed with even greater agility, dynamics, and precision.
There is even enhanced and unique bracing elements in the underfloor and load compartment to keep the motorsport inspired performance available when you want it.
Furthermore, adaptive M suspension complemented with electronically controlled shock absorbers, which are joined by M Servotronic steering with a variable ratio, come as standard on the BMW M3 Touring, further enhancing the car's handling and dynamic ability.
Technology and Drive Modes
As a bona fide driver's car, the cockpit is a superb place to spend time behind the wheel. A 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster is joined by an infotainment screen of 14.9 inches.
The infotainment system utilises BMW's Operating System 8.5, which makes for rapid navigation of the menus and features on offer.
BMW Live Cockpit Plus including BMW Maps navigation system, ambient lighting, and hi-fi speaker system ensure the M3 Touring is a joy to live with, no matter the drive.
Technology is further implemented to keep you safe thanks to Front Collision Warning, Speed Limit Display with no-overtaking indicator, Lane Departure Warning and Park Distance Control, all coming as standard.
As for 'Drive Modes' the clever DSC system includes wheel slip limitation integration. This is joined by M Dynamic Mode, with M Traction Control function as standard.
