The 2024 BMW M3 Saloon and Touring – only in Performance guise in the UK- gets a power boost and minor updates. Costs from £82,420.
For the UK, we only get the ‘Performance’ models, which means 4WD and a boost in power to 523bhp from a bit of ‘Chipping’ by BMW, with the additional power delivering 0-62mph times of 3.5 seconds for the Saloon and 3.6 seconds for the Touring, and also cutting 0-124mph times by half a second to 11.8 seconds for the Saloon and 12.4 seconds for the Touring. Despite power increasing, torque remains the same at 479lb/ft from the M3’s 3.0-litre straight six.
Trying to spot the visual changes for 2024 will take some doing, but there is a new set of LED lights, and new alloys in 19″ at the front and 20″ at the back.
Inside there’s a tiny bit more newness going on, with a new three-spoke M Steering Wheel (optionally in Alcantara), BMW’s latest 8.5 OS and ‘sophisticated’ materials.
Production of the 2024 M3 starts alongside that of the updated 3 Series, with both the Saloon – costing from £82,420 – and the Touring at £84,240 are now on sale with first UK deliveries due in late summer.
