One of the average sedans of the D-segment most desired is BMW Serie 3. The Bavarian model has been around for a few years now and, as we have mentioned on a few occasions, its generational relief It will arrive in dealerships next year. 2019. At the moment, the brand has not shown official images or data of the new model, but it is clearly the vehicle behind the image above.
Posted in the famous BMW Blog, in this teaser image we see the next generation of the saloon model. Unlike other advances, and although a sheet tries to protect a good part of the vehicle's design, the truth is that we can see many frontal features, such as its lighting or the brand's traditional kidneys.
It seems that the new BMW 3 Series will continue to use a continuity design compared to the predecessor generation, something it has been doing since practically the first iteration of Series 3. Of course, the kidneys gain centimeters in the horizontal plane and lose in height, thus seeking a greater sense of visual width. The design of the optics, although similar to the current ones, is thinner and longer.
They comment on BMW Blog that the unit of the image could be the sports version M40i, which would be on a lower step compared to the BMW M3 that will take several more months to be known. The BMW M340i, in theory, for this generation should be around 360 hp and take the 3.0-liter inline six-cylinder engine with supercharging.
We don't know when it will finally be revealed. this new model. bearing the Paris Salon just around the corner, it is easy to think that the Bavarian brand will use this stage for its debut. However, in a recent statement, BMW advanced the models that it would carry there, and the new 3 Series was not among them.
Perhaps they prefer to let this quote pass to show it a few days or weeks later or, on the other hand, they may reveal it there without reporting it beforehand in order to surprise all the media. Of course, after seeing this image, it would no longer be such a surprise...
