The 2026 BMW M3, part of the sixth generation introduced in 2020, is a high-performance sports sedan priding itself on both luxury and speed. Enthusiasts will appreciate the available 3.0-liter M TwinPower Turbo inline-6 engine that delivers up to 510 horsepower. The M3 comes with an 8-speed M Steptronic transmission with Drivelogic, and the standard rear-wheel drive delivers a traditional sports-car feel, while BMW's xDrive models offer all-wheel drive. Available in M3, M3 Competition, and M3 CS trims, the car features a 12.3-inch instrument cluster and 10.25-inch center display, offering both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility. BMW ensures safety with its Active Guard system, which includes frontal collision warning and city collision mitigation. For 2026, BMW has made minor tweaks to the M3, including updates to the infotainment system.
