2019 BMW X3 M
BMW X3 M SUV test mule went on
testing on the Nürburgring track and paparazzi managed to capture spy
shots.
Much of
the vehicle is covered in a camouflage, but the overall design and many details
are still noticeable. You can notice that it won’t receive significant changes
on the outside. The 2019 BMW X3 M is wider than the regular model. It is also
lower, but has larger wheels, for better handling. It has larger intakes on the
front, and four exhaust tips at the back. Don’t expect massive changes of the interior.
BMW said to be powered
by a 3.0L inline-6 petrol engine, paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch
transmission, that will be delivering 425 horsepower and 406 lb-ft of torque,
or even more. That should be good for the top speed of 155 miles per hour. Also
expect the xDrive all-wheel-drive system.
The X3 M is not so
far from its debut, so expect it to arrive on one of the upcoming auto shows.
The base model will be released next year, so this improved M variant will go
on sale by the end of 2018. When it goes on sale, it will be a direct
competitor to these models: Mercedes-AMG GLC63, Jaguar F-Pace SVR, Porsche
Macan Turbo, and Audi RS Q5. As for the price, expect no less than US$ 60,000 for
this high-performance SUV.
