8.6/10The all new BMW M3 is perhaps one of the best designed M series cars you can find in the market at the moment. BMW has always had a signature way of styling their cars; however, this year, they have changed it up a bit. Although they have stuck to their signature style of the kidney grille, they have elongated it to make the car look a lot sportier as well as muscular. Not only that but the LED headlights and taillights have also changed, making the car look a lot more streamlined and clean. Along with that, there have been certain changes in the bonnet, the bumpers and the overall width of the car, making it wider and longer. All in all, every change in the car is made to give it a cleaner and more adaptable look.

Detailed Comparision - |
At the auto expo this year, BMW yet again announced the new rendition of the BMW M3 car for 2021. The new 2021 BMW M3 comes with a few changes in its aesthetics while also keeping in mind the original form and power of the older versions. This 5-seater sedan this year comes in only in two petrol variants, namely the Standard and Competition models, which makes this car even more special.
This year, both car variants come with a turbocharged 3-litre engine that can produce as much as 480 BHP of power for the standard one and up to 521 HP for the competition. Along with that high power, the car also can produce a maximum torque of 550 Nm in the standard model and 650 Nm in the Competition model. While these numbers are very impressive, this is only the beginning. The car also keeps in mind the everyday users and comes with certain conveniences generally seen in a sedan like a huge boot space of 495 Litres, along with foldable seats, that further increases this number to a whopping 1,500 Litres. However, with such a powerful engine, every car manufacturer often compromises on mileage. That said, in this segment, this car has one of the best mileages at 10.75 KM/L.
The interior of this car is specially made to be comfortable so that the everyday riders do not have any problem in long drives, as well as city rides. The cabin is also made with very close attention to detail, making the whole feel very premium and exquisite. With well-placed controls and an easily manoeuvrable steering wheel, there is no way you will be disappointed with the ride quality of this car. It also gets air conditioning vents at the rear set along with a foldable hand rest in the middle.
Along with that, the suspension of the new BMW M3 has also been exchanged for stiffer ones this time. The premium leather seats really provide a luxurious interior. This further helps grip any surface better and also absorbs more jerks on the road, in turn giving the driver a seamless and comfortable ride.
When it comes to aesthetics, BMW somehow gets it right every time. The novel BMW grilles have been elongated this time around to give it a more muscular yet futuristic and smoother look. Although this is the most noticeable difference from the prior BMW M3s, other unique touches include the heavy structure of the front bumper, rising up to a bonnet that has new lines, giving it a much more sporty look.
What sets this car apart from all its competitors is the fact that BMW has managed to perfectly balance the sporty feel and look of this car with comfort and elegance. With the turbo charged engine, there is no doubt that this car performs like a beast. However, they have subdued that for everyday users by adding premium quality interiors, a poised and elegant look and luxurious material used for the cabin. Any customer buying this car will surely get the best of both worlds.
