M3 + family car practicality = the new 2023 BMW M3 Touring. Full review this way, by Keith_Adams___ 🚀
, the M3 Touring’s maximum power and torque figures of 503bhp and 479lb ft no longer have the wow factor they might have done once upon a time. But for an ICE car that you can throw your stepladders in the back, that’s still mighty impressive. And you won’t be tethered to your home’s wallbox, or hobbled by the need to public charge.you specify the M Sport Pro Package, and that’s enough to keep you more than amused.
BMW’s done a great job with the M3 Touring’s soundtrack, too. Yes, it’s digitally augmented, but the straight-six wail is present and correct, with the electronically controlled exhaust flaps adding to the drama when they open up. It’s just a shame that it sounds like a garage compressor when you fire it up from cold, and there’s no option to quieten things right down for those early-morning getaways. In that, you can’t beat an EV or PHEV.The first thing to consider is this car’s portliness.
M Drift Analyser are not really going to be a thing on the North Coast 500, let alone the B660. Because ultimately, it might be billed as a compact executive car, but the M3 Touring feels a tad too large for comfortable squirting down B-roads at velocity. Besides, as good as it is, the transition from neutrality to oversteer is lightning fast, with a tiny window of opportunity, especially in damp and cold conditions.
Fuel consumption? We averaged 22.3mpg in testing, which included much low-speed driving to keep the averages realistic.The new 2023 BMW M3 Touring Competition confidently, effortlessly saunters in and settles down at the head of the estate car class. The Audi RS4 Avant, as appealing as it is, does not have the steering or brakes to live with the M3 Touring, so let’s move on.
