The Electric M3 Will Be Priced In the 'Same Ballpark' As The Gas One

• The electric and gas BMW M3 should fall into the same price ballpark.
• BMW thinks a drive in the electric M3 can win over some skeptics, get them to pick the EV.
• The gas M3 will live on for buyers who still don’t want an EV.

BMW will unveil a hot version of its i3 sedan—the electric M3—next year. We don’t know what it’s going to be called or all the specifics yet. But we do know it will have a motor powering each wheel and, as one BMW engineer told us, "performance levels you've never seen in a BMW M production car." And apparently it'll cost about the same as a gas-powered M3 too.
