BMW M3 COMPETITION SALOON– PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS.
Driving dynamics and design features of the BMW M3 Competition Saloon.
The BMW M3 Competition Saloon shows how much motorsport is possible with a BMW 3 Series Saloon. The top model of the BMW 3 Series Saloon M models features a 510-hp high-performance BMW M TwinPower Turbo inline 6-cylinder petrol engine and numerous drive and chassis technologies adapted from motorsport. Interaction with the optional all-wheel drive M xDrive with Active M Differential means that the driver of this unique sports saloon can always expect the supreme level of typical M driving dynamics. Powerful proportions and the distinctive 3-box design visually emphasise the athletic character of the vehicle. Expressive M design elements such as the carbon roof with fins or the continuous black sills set striking motorsport accents on the exterior. With its many M features, the interior of the BMW M3 Competition Saloon has an athletically elegant appearance and is consistently driver-oriented.
- Dynamics
- Design
BMW M TwinPower Turbo inline 6-cylinder petrol engine.
The BMW M TwinPower Turbo inline 6-cylinder petrol engine features superior power delivery and the striking characteristic M engine sound. Two mono-scroll turbochargers, direct High-Precision Injection, fully variable valve control and variable camshaft control ensure outstanding performance.
8-speed M Steptronic with Drivelogic.
The 8-speed M Steptronic transmission with Drivelogic offers numerous shifting options. You can shift manually using the gear lever or the gearshift paddles on the steering wheel, or select one of three automatic programmes using Drivelogic.
M xDrive.
M xDrive with Active M Differential guarantees maximum traction and driving dynamics for everyday driving, as well as at the racetrack. The optional M specific technology combines the typical agility of a rear-wheel drive with the control of an all-wheel drive. You can choose between the drive variants 4WD, 4WD Sport and – in DSC-off mode – 2WD.
M Compound brake, Red high-gloss.
Thanks to the use of various materials, M Compound brakes achieve outstanding deceleration values, are extremely stable and weigh less. The brake calipers in Red high-gloss with M lettering lend this high-performance brake system a distinctly sporty appearance.
M Carbon ceramic brake.
The M Carbon ceramic brake delivers braking power more directly. It contributes to a lower vehicle weight, which has a positive impact on agility, dynamics and acceleration. The technical equipment is visible through carbon-ceramic brake discs and calipers in the colour Gold matt with M lettering on the front and rear axle on the outside. Due to specific material properties, increased operating noise may occur during braking, e.g. in case of prolonged, low load or in wet conditions shortly before vehicle standstill. The design-related noise can be avoided by braking the brake dry in case of wetness or loading the brake more heavily after a long, low braking load. The influence of wetness and road salt cause brake effectiveness to correspond to that of a conventional brake system. This reduced braking power can be compensated for with a greater pressure on the pedal. The functional noises have no influence on the performance, operational safety and stability of the brake.
M Sport exhaust system.
The M Sport exhaust system delivers a dynamic sound that can be modified via the integrated exhaust valve mechanism. The SPORT and SPORT+ programmes, which can be selected via the SETUP button, are accentuated by an even more intense engine sound, while the comfort-oriented programme prioritises more discreet engine acoustics.
Front design.
The front of BMW M3 Competition Saloon is characterised by the expressive M kidney grille in a reduced interpretation for maximum dynamic effect. In a frameless design for the first time ever, the completely black kidney grille with horizontal M typical double louvres permits the maximum throughput of cooling air for the high-revving M power unit. Together with the narrow headlights leading towards the kidney grille, the central air inlet with its large trapezoidal design highlights the athletic character of the vehicle.
Side design.
With its crisply defined proportions and distinctive four-door 3-box design – front, passenger compartment and rear are formally and recognisably separated – the silhouette of the BMW M3 Competition Saloon creates an agile and nimble effect. The black carbon roof and the aerodynamically optimised sill area inspired by motorsport press the silhouette of the vehicle even closer to the road both optically and physically. Together with the M gills featuring model logo and the striking M forged wheels with M Compound brake, the dynamically designed exterior mirrors in typical M double-slat design create additional sporting highlights.
19"/20" M forged wheels Double-spoke style 825 M Orbit Grey matt with mixed tyres.
19"/20" M forged wheels Double-spoke style 825 M Bicolour Orbit Grey matt with mixed tyres, gloss-lathed rim/rim flange, wheel size front 9.5J x 19 with 275/35 R19 tyres, wheel size rear 10.5J x 20 with 285/30 R20 tyres.
CFRP roof.
As part of BMW's intelligent lightweight construction, the carbon roof made of carbon fibre reinforced plastic (CFRP) helps to reduce the car's mass, and shifts the car's centre of gravity lower. This leads to an increase in agility and dynamics when taking a bend, accelerating and braking.
Rear design.
The rear of the BMW M3 Competition Saloon systematically continues the sporty and agile appearance of the side section. Alongside the muscular wheel arches, the broad track width of the M specific axles produces a powerful stance that impressively underlines the performance-oriented ambitions of the sports saloon. Two pairs of typical M twin tailpipes in black chrome and a discreet spoiler in black high-gloss underline the exclusive motorsport character of the vehicle.
M Sport seats.
The multi-adjustable M Sport seats with bucket seat character and partly integrated headrest provide excellent lateral support for you and your front passenger. In addition, the backrest width can be individually adjusted. Their special design with illuminated M3 logo highlights the vehicle's athletic capabilities.
M leather steering wheel.
The M leather steering wheel with its contoured thumb rests provides a direct, athletic steering experience and maximum control. The integrated multifunction enables the operation of various multimedia and assistance systems. The red M1/M2 buttons can be used to access two preset M Drive configurations.

BMW M340i xDRIVE AND BMW M340d xDRIVE SALOON – PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS.
Driving dynamics and design features of the BMW M340i xDrive and BMW M340d xDrive Saloon.
The BMW M340i xDrive and BMW M340d xDrive Saloon exhibit a distinctly sporty character – both visually and technically – while being eminently suitable for everyday use. Striking accents in Cerium Grey metallic alongside the BMW double kidney grille in mesh design and sporty interior features underline the dynamic character of the vehicle. Powerful and efficient BMW M TwinPower Turbo engines with up to 374 hp interacting with precisely tuned chassis components such as the Adaptive M suspension guarantee sporty sheer driving pleasure and optimum handling.

BMW M TwinPower Turbo 6-cylinder engines.

M sport differential.
The M sport differential optimises traction and driving stability. Traction is optimised with the help of an electronically operated device that reduces the difference in revolution speed between the rear wheels.
8-speed Steptronic Sport transmission.
The 8-speed Steptronic Sport transmission offers incredibly sporty gear changes. Whether automatic or manual using gearshift paddles or gear lever – for comfortable coasting or dynamic driving. In SPORT mode and with the gear lever in the left-hand S/M position, the gear shifts are configured for the best performance.
M Sport brake.
The M Sport brake has four-piston fixed callipers at the front and single-piston floating callipers at the rear in red with the M designation and features large brake discs to ensure an outstanding braking performance.
Variable sport steering.
The Variable sport steering with Servotronic creates a direct and agile steering response and ensures that less physical effort is required to turn the wheel. It reacts to the angle of the steering wheel with varying steering ratios. This improves handling when driving more dynamically and reduces the effort needed to steer when parking and turning.
Adaptive M suspension.
The 10 millimetre lowered Adaptive M suspension can be electrically adjusted at any time to suit the road and driving conditions. Drivers can also adjust the suspension characteristics via the Driving Experience Control to enable their preferred driving style at the time – from comfortable to athletic with agile handling.
Mild hybrid technology.
Mild hybrid technology is used to recover braking energy and supports the combustion engine during acceleration with electric power. This reduces fuel consumption and emissions while giving you a dynamic advantage. The mild hybrid technology also makes the Automatic Start/Stop function faster and more comfortable. Currently available for BMW M340d xDrive Saloon.
M Aerodynamic package.
The M Aerodynamic package with M-specific front apron, rear apron and side skirts in body colour and a diffuser insert in Dark Shadow metallic conveys pure dynamics and sportiness. The components not only sharpen the appearance, but also optimize the aerodynamic properties of the vehicle.
19" M light alloy wheels Double-spoke style 792 M Bicolour.

Exclusive tailpipe trims.
Exclusively for the M340i xDrive and M340d xDrive Saloon: left and right tailpipes in free form and in the colour Cerium Grey. In this way, the tailpipes make a visual statement and emphasise the sportiness of the M340i xDrive and M340d xDrive Saloon.
Sport seats & M seat belts.
The Sport seats for driver and front passenger feature optimum support and various adjustment options, including backrest width. The M seat belts with belt tensioner and belt force limiter boast an exquisite woven highlight in the classic M colours.
M Leather steering wheel.
The M Leather steering wheel including multifunction buttons, an M badge and an integrated driver-side airbag is featured in three-spoke design. With a steering wheel rim in leather 'Walknappa' Black with black stitching and contoured thumb rests, it provides a direct, athletic steering experience.
