BMW always knows what we want. It has studied its customers and throughout the six generations of its existence, it has observed the evolutions happening within communities and the overall market. BMW has never been hesitant to rewrite an automotive story. When it decides what it decides, it takes initiative, and guess what? We always love it! The car brand has just teased something more magnificent coming in 2027, taking its legacy and goals to a whole new level. As the world of cars is gearing up for electrification, what better way to set the tone as one of the world’s admired car brands?
Boldness, power, and breakthroughs are part of BMW’s upcoming project
BMW is planning its biggest move. It’s major because they have kept this top secret for years and now have decided to unveil it. We are talking of an unveiling featuring 1,300 horsepower, a drastic overhaul, and an unconventional fuel source. BMW is a vehicle not only designed for speed and performance, but the brand also connects with its drivers so that they get the best of both worlds.
It is about time, because in 2018, a 2019 model of the current 3 Series was debuted, and then a minor development was made in 2022 that included a new iDrive 8 infotainment system and a variety of different front fascia angles. Therefore, when BMW was quiet and it seemed like nothing was happening, behind the scenes, they were working on something exciting, and now we anticipate a power-packed development.
The 2027 Electric M3 is powered by the Neue Klasse Platform, BMW’s secret weapon
In case you have not figured it out yet, it is called the Neue Klasse. This will not be another ordinary make, but the aesthetic will focus on both sustainability and exclusive performance; we are talking of 1,300 hp and 100% of this fuel, electric fuel. The Neue Klasse Platform is expected to power a new generation of the 3 Series vehicles. As it is pure electric, it supports pure batteries, and even the charging pace is faster.
In terms of its look, not much will change, as BMW still wants to maintain a “BMW look” or brand. However, in contrast to the existing model’s deeper, narrower design, it will have a narrow grille with small, pointed headlights at the corners. Further down, there should be noticeable, mostly rectangular vertical vents on the bottom fascia. Vertical and horizontal symmetry take the place of the current car’s numerous angles and body lines.
The fuel is all electric, yet it’s also a BMW M3
The 100% pure fuel is not what you are thinking of, such as hydrogen, synthetic fuel, ammonia, biofuel, or all these fuel options that automakers are trying out these days; it is pure electric batteries. This means BMW wants to maintain its rule and concept of going electric, not only because it is trending but also because its beauty, power, and boldness should come with sustainability.
Frank Weber, member of the Board of Management of BMW AG, responsible for Development, said:
“The Heart of Joy enables us to take driving pleasure not just to the next level, but another one beyond that.”
BMW’s secret project for 2027 is a manifestation of what the future looks like. We might be going crazy over this new development, but this is just a highlight or a symptom of the greater inventions that BMW is working towards. We know, since its first launch in 1986, when the first BMW M3 E30 was created as a homologation model for entry into the DTM German Touring Car Championship racing, every other model that followed spoke volumes, and that is why today, if BMW does a small thing like breathing, we are all attentive to see and hear what wonders it has next.
