The BMW M3 will someday go electric, and thanks to a trademark application made at the European Union Intellectual Property Office (and another identical application at the German Patent and Trade Mark Office), we can now confirm what that car's name is likely to be: iM3.
Trademark fillings for the iM3 name have been found. But it also looks like an iM3 and M3 might be on sale at the same time
If they’re planning on selling both at the same time, it’s still plausible. People who buy EV’s dont really care much about track performance anyways, as long as it has some impressive straight line acceleration that will be good enough for the EV crowd.
The ICE is for the enthusiast, the EV is for the guy who wants a daily driver thats not as boring as Tesla.
Maybe, but realistically, how many M cars actually get tracked? There isn’t much info out there but I’d highly doubt it’s more than 25%; and even that’s generous
