Based on the recently redesigned 3-series sedan, the new BMW M3 aims to resurrect the nameplate's storied driver engagement. BMW shows its commitment to that sentiment by continuing to provide a manual transmission, at least on the regular model. An eight-speed automatic is mandatory on the more powerful M3 Competition. Behind their prominent and polarizing grille is a familiar twin-turbo 3.0-liter inline-six that makes between 473 and 503 horsepower. The latter is reserved for the aforementioned Competition model, which will be offered with all-wheel drive for the first time. Likewise, the 2021 M3 Competition further highlights the sports sedan's performance potential with track-ready hardware that challenges rivals such as the Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio and Mercedes-AMG C63.

As with the new M4 coupe, M3 sedan features a twin-turbo 3.0-liter inline-six. The normal version sends 473 horsepower and 406 pound-feet of torque to the rear wheels. A six-speed manual is the only transmission offered. The M3 Competition's engine is even more powerful, generating 503 horses and 479 pound-feet, but it's only offered with the eight-speed automatic. Rear-wheel drive is standard, but the Competition will eventually be offered with all-wheel drive, too. Every M3 also features adaptive dampers and adjustable brake-pedal feel.
