Its called an M340 as its what BMW call their "M Performance" model. Its not just a 3 series with a bigger engine. There are other subtle mods to the car over a "normal" 3 series M Sport model/line.

Here in UK we have a M140i (and M240i). This is an "M Performance" model that has things like subtle suspension changes over the normal M Sport and is NOT fitted with run flat tyres. Comes with Michelin Pilot Super Sports. Also no front fog lights - like M cars. And one or two other body style changes also I think.

I assume the M340i will follow the same theme as the M140i.
