Fair point. So we will leave it at that. We'll find out after 2027 what was the final decision.

Could you imagine a 4300lb M3 that was an EV, awd, automatic only, and with a B series engine? What a time to be alive.

Dated or not, the hybrid will be a big boat M3.

I am trying to understand how "dated" is a negative here.

Cocooned in a cabin full of tech emitting monsterous levels of radition, surrounded by awkward screen UIs where convenient buttons once dominated, and dealing with 4,500 lbs in a hairpin corner while lugging a useless battery around.

"Progress" they claim.

There is also the B58 3.0 liter which already has the 48 volt mild-hybrid integration, and it’s used, successfully, across various M Performance BMW models.

From a business standpoint, the B58 could make sense, as it’s widely used in models like the M240i, M340i, Z4 M40i, and Toyota Supra. A 48-volt mild-hybrid B58 would also be more cost-effective, but this decision could frustrate hardcore M enthusiasts. The last time BMW placed a non-M engine in an M car—the N55 in the F87 M2—it sparked considerable debate, despite the engine’s solid performance.

Choosing the B58 might make financial sense, but it could be seen as a step backward by purists. If BMW goes with the S58, they will need to ensure the engine is Euro 7-compliant, and luckily there is plenty of time to get the engine ready for a 2027-2028 M3 launch. Either way, BMW has a challenge on its hands as it balances emissions compliance with the expectations of M3 enthusiasts."

I hope you are right.
if it has a B engine it won't be called an M3

As long as it's not a hideous looking vehicle, I'll certainly be looking into it. By that time, I'll likely have driven a F8x type car for like 12 years straight. I'm not really against electrification etc., I'm just against horrible looking cars.
