A lot of auto online publications want a piece of the action behind the wheels of the new BMW M3, and Motor Trend is no exception as it also took the sports car out for some tests.

The journalists from Motor Trend also filmed the drive test, as they wanted to know how it felt driving such an amazing sports car.

We are talking here about some muscle being put on the M3 Sedan, as the model now sports a 3.0-liter TwinPower Turbo six-cylinder inline unit, which outputs a total of 431 horsepower and 550 Nm of torque.

The engine of the new BMW M3 is sending the power to the rear wheels, being hooked to a seven-speed dual clutch transmission.

Interesting enough, the same 3.0-liter engine is also found on the BMW M4 Coupe, making the two sports car rather equal in terms of performance.

Talking about performance, the BMW M3 Sedan is able to sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in just 4.1seconds, at the top speed of 250 km/h.
