Station wagons have
fallen victim to SUVs’ popularity way before saloons did – and yet, certain
carmakers haven’t shied away from building ridiculously quick versions of what
would otherwise be regular family cars with a somewhat boring-looking rear
section.
Whether it’s the
Audi RS4/RS6 Avant combo, or the AMG-powered C63 or E63 Wagon, you’re
definitely not short on power and noise with any of those four. And in the end,
you’re still left with a very practical and reasonably roomy car.
The fact that BMW
has yet to build a Touring version of its M3 sedan is not without reason. Until
recently, or at least until somebody in charge decides otherwise, an M3 Touring
simply didn’t gel with the automaker’s image.
If the M3 Touring
would end up looking anything like this render by Aksyonov Nikita, we reckon
buyers will be reasonably happy, especially since in reality, it would have
even wider fenders to accommodate the M3’s tracks. Anyway, while an M3 Touring
might not be on the picture, the upcoming Sedan will be powered by a twin-turbo
3.0-liter inline-six with a maximum output of around 474 HP.
