2012 BMW 3-Series F30 Winter Testing

This model car is a 3.0-litre twin turbo 335i which today makes 225kW (306hp) and 400Nm in standard form. Those figures will certainly increase. Some possible engines being mentioned include with a new four-cylinder petrol turbo (shared with Peugeot/Citroën) and a compact 6-cylinder twin turbo M3. Even a hybrid has been speculated. Production of the 2012 BMW 3 Series begins in 2011 while the first M3 model, probably a coupe, will appear in 2012.
