The car was rumoured to be in the making for a quite a while now and this is the first time that a prototype of the upcoming BMW M3 has been spotted testing. The next-gen BMW M3 is likely to be introduced sometime in the second half of 2019, considering the fact the current-gen F80 model will reach the end of its production in October 2018.

The current BMW M3, the F80 model, has been in the market since 2014 and over the past three years the car has received some considerable facelifts, it's now finally ready to receive a generation upgrade as well. As you can see the test mule seen in these images is heavily camouflaged and we also can only see the rear section of the car so it's too soon to comment on the styling and other changes made to the car. Having said that, there are some noticeable design changes, like the roofline is now not coupe-like, as seen in the current one and more sedan-like. Also, the new M3 will be built on the company's modular CLAR platform and will feature more aluminium and high-strength steel in its construction to keep the weight down.
