New details are starting to emerge about the 2014 BMW M3 as Auto Express recently sat down for an interview with Dr Friedrich Nitschke - the managing director of M GmbH.
The executive was reluctant to discuss specifics, but said the next-generation M3 would have a "bigger focus on very low fuel consumption." That's a tad vague, but the magazine says the car will feature a tri-turbocharged 3.3-liter six-cylinder engine with approximately 450 hp (336 kW / 456 PS). Additionally, we can expect aggressive styling and a lightweight body that adopts carbon fiber-reinforced plastic (CFRP) components.
Besides talking about the M3, Nitschke revealed a Z4 M is "something we could do easily" and an M1 revival is possible. More interestingly, Auto Express says a 1-Series M CSL is under development and could draw inspiration from the tii concept.
