If you ask the head of development at BMW’s M division, he doesn’t know whether a gasoline engine or an electric car is better when it comes to performance. Whether the answer is deliberately diplomatic or he really means it, we will never know.
In a new interview, Alexander Karajlović promises BMW M customers driving pleasure with all drive systems.
– I don’t know what is the best – he told Auto Motor Sport.
For enthusiasts of the BMW 3 Series, a fascinating shift in performance engineering is on the horizon as the brand prepares to offer two distinct, high-performance M variants. The upcoming lineup will feature an ambitious all-electric model, which is projected to deliver an astonishing output exceeding 1,000 horsepower, marking a new era of electrified speed.
Simultaneously, purists can look forward to a traditional internal combustion version that stays true to its roots, expected to retain the beloved, high-revving six-cylinder engine while delivering a robust 550 horsepower. By providing these two unique paths, BMW is aiming to cater to both the future-focused electric vehicle market and the traditional driving experience, ensuring that the legacy of M-performance remains adaptable and engaging regardless of the powertrain technology under the hood.
