2027 BMW M3 EV 4-motor specs: Quad-Motor Power and Simulated Shifting
BMW teases the 2027 M3 EV featuring a quad-motor setup and simulated gear shifting. Learn how it compares to Tesla and Lucid's tri-motor performance.
Forget three motors; BMW is going for four. The German automaker just teased its upcoming all-electric M-series performance sedan, promising technical specifications that aim to redefine the electric performance landscape when it arrives in 2027.
The 2027 BMW M3 EV 4-motor specs and Drivetrain Innovation
According to The Verge, the new M3 will feature a quad-motor setup, a rarity even in the high-end EV world where tri-motor configurations like the Tesla Model S Plaid and Lucid Air Sapphire are currently the benchmark. BMW claims this 4-motor arrangement allows for total control of each wheel, enabling the car to decouple the front axle for a pure rear-wheel-drive experience or engage all wheels for maximum traction.
Bringing the Soul Back with Simulated Gear Shifting
One of the most anticipated features is the simulated gear shifting. As EVs often face criticism for lacking mechanical soul, BMW is integrating software to mimic the feel of a traditional gearbox. While pricing remains unannounced, this move signals a shift toward emotional engagement rather than just raw 0-60 mph times.
