The compact sedan 3 Series is BMW’s representative model. This model represents the BMW brand and has always maintained its position as the strongest in its segment. Therefore, the new information about the 3 Series is essential information not only for general consumers but also for various manufacturers.

At the same time, overseas, a BMW was spotted test driving on a track with a portion of the front camouflage covering, raising the curiosity of many people. What kind of vehicle is the mysterious BMW that was captured?

High-performance sedan based on the 3-Series

This time, the vehicle captured was about to be released by Alpina, a German automobile manufacturer of the BMW Group and a company that produces high-performance versions of BMW. The main feature of Alpina’s vehicle, called B3, is that it is tuned to a vehicle with a completely different performance based on the BMW 3 Series.

The vehicle is characterized by modifying details like the kidney grille and wheels based on the G body. The most prominent feature of the exterior is that the front and rear bumpers are decorated to be more luxurious and sporty. As for the interior, the Alpina emblem was used to decorate the steering, and points were given here and there to differentiate it from BMW’s 3 Series.

It looks like an ordinary sedan but performs like an M3

The vehicle captured this time has a 3.0L twin-turbo in-line 6-cylinder engine that produces 488 horsepower. It takes only 3.6 seconds to reach 100 km/h (62 mph) from a standstill, and the maximum speed can be up to 305 km/h (190 mph). In contrast to its monotonous appearance, it delivers performance comparable to the high-performance division M3. Because of these features, some call it BMW’s top model.

Along with Alpina’s high-performance BMW and B3 models, BMW’s 3 Series facelift model, which will be released in the second half of the year, was also highlighted. The most significant feature is that the Iconic Glow on the front grill is also installed in the 3 Series. Other changes are expected to be non-visible, such as improvements to the wheels and interior and the use of high-quality materials.
