New BMW M3 & M4 teased on video

New BMW M3 & M4 teased on video (M4 Concept pictured)

The new BMW M3 and M4 – effectively an M3 Coupe – are due for a debut at the Detroit Auto Show next month, and BMW are starting the tease with a new video. The video shows nothing of real note, just the outline of the M3 and M4 picked out by moving lights. Which seems a bit daft when we already have a pretty good idea of what’s on offer.

The BMW M4 Concept – revealed back in August – showed us what to expect, and the production version of the M4 is unlikely to stray far from the concept.

Under the bonnet of both the new M3 and M4 you’ll find the same 3.0 litre twin-turbo petrol engine with 424bhp – 10bhp more than the old M3′s 4.0 litre – which, together with a drop in weight, should see the new ‘Ms’ scoot to 62mph in around 4.5 seconds.

Although the public debut for the new M3 and M4 is scheduled for next month, we’re expecting BMW to reveal them before that – perhaps as soon as this week – although they are not likely to be in BMW showrooms until summer 2014.
