BMW has published another teaser picture of the all-new 3 Series. The mid-class sedan will be officially unveiled on October 2 during the 2018 Paris Motor Show. We already know that the new generation BMW 3 Series will be 55 kilograms lighter, with a center of gravity 10 mm lower and perfectly balanced.
In terms of the engine portfolio, one important feature is a thoroughly revised 4-cylinder gasoline engine. It is the most powerful 4-cylinder engine ever to be fitted in a BMW series production model. Yet its fuel consumption figures are still some 5 per cent below those of the predecessor engine: one contributing factor being the further developed 8-speed Steptronic transmission.
The key feature in terms of suspension development in the new BMW 3 Series Sedan is its damping system. The first ever progressive dampers to be fitted in a BMW model function continuously and progressively in relation to suspension travel.
Stay tuned for more info.
