Unfortunately. Because this might result in the EV not maximising interior space like it could as the platform still needs to reserve room for an ICE. 🙄

@ Well I am a BMW owner and come from a a BMW family. Hence I have driven a lot of BMW‘s over time, including 750i, 8 series, M3 E30, 5 series, 3 series. Let me tell you, the electric i4 looks like a typical BMW sedan and drives like a typical BMW sedan. And f*ck noise. Nobody needs that.
I also like to see the changes to the rear end. Having a defined bumper makes it look more muscular. But now the tail light/trunk lid section is giving me a strong 2005ish VW Jetta vibes. I would like to see maybe more angle to that section or possibly have the trunk lid have a longer integrated wing that flows with the body line seamlessly. Wish I could draw like you do then I could show what I mean. Enjoy the videos thanks
Looks promising. Seems like there's a way to design modern cars without exaggeration and generic features. Edit: It also seems like BMW is communicating better. They emotionally prepare the customers for the changes to come and emphasize their perks that aren't engine related. Mercedes almost seemed like they tried to hide their 4 cylinder strategy and pretend nothing has changed while halving their engines...
0:10 to me this is one of the best designs BMW has produced in a long time... but it's electric so it's irrelevant to me for at least another 5+ years...
I'm glad they will have the option for electric alongside combustion. I rather have a choice than have a heavy hybrid combining the two like the new M5.
I wanted the G M3 because of how diffrent colors look on the body BT THE FRONT BUMPERRR IS soo bad I just can't get over it and there is NO REPLACEMENT NOTHING I looked for it
10:17 Who told you the Ioniq 5 has a great range. It actually has a pretty bad drag coefficient and a large cross section, resulting in inferior aerodynamics.
That black M3 rendering looks a lot better than the base white one. STILL, I wish neither had a hood that would dip down right in the middle at the front of the car. Keep it up and out BMW... Stop dping goofy sh*t eoth the kidneys. I don't need those high hog nostrils sticking up on the front of the car!
Nah at this point i have given up on BMW. Untill and unless they dont release something significant like how they did for Z4, then it wont pick my interest. Their designs are horrible to look at and they are getting more expensive with each model. Its just absurd.
@@avigator The Genesis magma program are not fully EV. The GV80 magma and G80 magma are both high performance vehicles with internal combustion engines. And they look better that most of BMW’s current line up
Too much front overhang, front wheels too close to the front door cut-line, and windshield line extends well forward of the front wheel axle. The Neue Klasse design, unfortunately, exhibits FWD proportions, which I view as ugly (see Alfa Romeo Brera Concept vs., the production Brera). FWD proportions have ruined many otherwise great designs. I’m not sold on Neue Klasse until I see one in the flesh.
they didn't say they'd never do electric. they said they'd do it when the technology was good enough to do it without compromises. so we're here already
The i5 M50 is trash. So poorly planned that it has no frunk. Like at all. The drive modes are a confusing mess, and the throttle calibration is too rough to have any fun with passengers. Seriously they'll just vomit. Not smooth at all. Back to back weeks in an i5 and a Lucid Air made the choice easy. I seriously can't give BMW a single advantage. I tried because we had expected to remain BMW customers for life. Nope.
Regulations and norms are a thing. They can't just keep making huge ICE and do their thing. You have to abide by the laws and regulations and adhere to the norms. It is what it is.
The ICE option is actually bad news. Because this might result in the EV not maximising interior space like it could as the platform still needs to reserve room for a spacious combustion engine. 😡
RIP BMW if the new 3 series is base on the neue klasse concept. Hopefully the automotive industry can escape this second malaise era with ugly "future" cars, and stupid electric powertrains before too long.
@@mcsike7264 you know, at some point us as a race will have to realize that the EV craze is just downright stupid. It's not to do with the environment anyways, EVs are worse for the environment than gas cars, and certainly making us throw out a bunch of old cars so we can replace them with new microwaves isn't very good for the environment either. Plus, you might say "EVs have better tech than gas cars, that makes daily driving better" if they had better tech, you wouldn't need to give us incentives or force us to buy them.

The Neue Klasse, has potential. But I think this M3 prototype looks too blocky. I generally like blocky cars, but this one will most likely lack details, making it look like an empty hollow block.
Not hard to go up from zero. They're taking existing market share from cars using an established infrastructure though. Altogether an expensive and inconvenient process for political reasons.
The issue is that the current M3 has 500+ hp, awd and just under 4000lbs curb weight. The model 3 performance has similar stats but is 30k less. The model 3 is already a better daily, they need to offer more for the money.
They should call it an M3i or i3M, and keep the M3 name for gasoline variants
iM3
m3i i if its i3m they will think its an m version of the bmw i3
i3 M

To be clear, there’s both an ICE and EV M3.

There's a short dash-axle ratio and the A-pillar projects ahead of the front center cap. Very FWD-like proportions

Comments like that are moronic. What Skoda? A lot of cars resemble some Skoda models and Skoda makes some good cars as of last 10 years.
Why do people act like Skoda didnt copy BMW to begin with?
Wtf os this a Lincoln?
Haha yeah I see what you mean
insult to the M3 nameplate, just call it EM3 or something else
So the kidneys are officially out for M cars? Current gen has caskets and now we're going to have wings?
I know im not close minded, i know im open to change, but these are just plain and simply, ugly.
Was Lincoln in the 2010s ahead of their time?

The circular lights on the mercedes are horendous are you trippin?
13:21 that thing is disgusting! :D
R.I.P.
Stop, they are making both an electrified version and a ICE as well, both on separate chassis

Why does it need a grill?
It has E36 vibes which is awesome.
The back looks like a Peugeot 508. I mean, good looking Peugeot but that is a BMW.
There will be a new generation of ICE M3. It’s already confirmed.
I like how you pronounce Neue Klasse exactly like we germans do. Grüße aus Deutschland!!!
isnt that the color changing car
m3 grill change = win
Can you do a video on the Renault 5 Turbo 3E ?
that thing is so obviously an economy car with a ridiculous body kit just look at the tail lights vs the actual width of the vehicle its a 1ft+ gap
I'm glad they will have the option for electric alongside combustion. I rather have a choice than have a heavy hybrid combining the two like the new M5.
The new m5 is actually a good car and most likely the m3 will be a hybrid due to EU regulations

Just look at the fiasco over at Mercedes woth the c63...not selling lol
Wow another 5000lb bmw ..... Exciting...
i wont judge until i see and heard it.
I think it will look amazing! Although it’s a shame it will be electric.
It’s not classically good looking, but still quite good. I just don’t want the pretend engine noises or infotainment gimmicks.
The proportions are extremely bad, it looks like the M1 or a sedan 1 series.
The battery tech is still not there. Mediocre range. Poor infrastructure.

Neue klasse looks great. But it will have the same problem as the 5er. Looks front wheel drive. Wahy to much body over the wheels
Holy crap that looks hideous. 340i is probably the last good looking BMW 3 series RIP
