The 2024 BMW M3 offers two powertrain versions in the Malaysian market. The standard version is equipped with a 3.0-litre inline-six twin-turbocharged engine, which can deliver a maximum power of 473 horsepower (353 kilowatts). Both versions are paired with an 8-speed M Steptronic transmission and come standard with a rear-wheel-drive system (M xDrive all-wheel drive is optional). Not only does it meet the Euro 7 emissions standard, but its high-revving engine sound and precise throttle response also carry on the driving pleasure of the M family. For Malaysian car enthusiasts, if they choose the Competition version, its 0 - 100km/h acceleration time of 4.1 seconds (rear-wheel-drive version) is more than enough to meet the needs of local mountain roads or track days. And after installing the M Driver's Package, the top speed can be unlocked to 290km/h. While competitors in the same class, such as the Mercedes - AMG C 63 S, have switched to hybrid power, the M3 still adheres to a pure petrol - powered setup, which is quite appealing to consumers who prefer traditional performance cars. Moreover, BMW Malaysia offers a 5 - year unlimited - mileage warranty, providing both performance and after - sales support.
