BMW M3 Touring: At a glance
The BMW M3 Touring will bear a more aggressive look than the standard model. It will have a sloping roofline, a vertically-oriented kidney grille, a muscular bonnet, large air dams, and quad exhaust pipes. On the sides, the estate will be flanked by ORVMs, flared wheel arches, blacked-out B-pillars, and alloy wheels. For lighting, it will get sleek adjustable headlamps.
Power and performance
BMW M3 Touring is expected to draw power from an S58 twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter, in-line engine, that also powers the M3 and M4 cars. The mill makes 480hp of maximum power and 600Nm of peak torque. Transmission duties should be handled by a 7-speed automatic gearbox.

However, it should get a luxurious cabin with adjustable leather seats, automatic climate control, and a multifunctional power steering wheel. The estate will pack a touchscreen infotainment system with support for the latest connectivity options. There should be multiple airbags, ABS with EBD, and other standard safety features.
What about the pricing?
The BMW M3 Touring will make its global debut in 2022, but it is unclear if it will make its way to India. If it does, it should be more expensive than M3 sedan which carries a price-tag of Rs. 1.3 crore.
