M3 Engine concept
BMW M will continue to develop BMW
engines for the performance-oriented,
yet responsible driver. That is why value
is placed on an engine design that
guarantees maximum thrust over a
wide range of engine speeds.
This is done by using high-grade mate-
rials and optimum components. The
engine thereby produces higher engine
speeds than can be achieved with
conventional engines.
Combined with appropriate transmis-
sion ratios and a performance-oriented
engine electronics system, the torque
from this so-called "high-speed aspi-
rated engine" is abundant throughout
the entire engine speed range – from
1,000 to a max. 8,000 per minute.
In practice, this means improved accel-
eration and more spontaneous
response throughout the engine speed
range, thus providing even more driving
pleasure.
