Actually, we would never use an i on an M, even though it would be electric. Because an M3 had a four-cylinder, six-cylinder, eight-cylinder engine; naturally aspirated, turbocharged ones. Now it\u2019s even got an xDrive, but it\u00a0<em>always<\/em> remained an M3.\u201d He went on that M is not about the powertrain but rather about \u201ca promise, it\u2019s about motorsports, it\u2019s about emotion.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The M boss ruled out an electric\/hybrid supercar, although he admitted that BMW\u2019s performance division is \u201calways dreaming about a car like that.\u201d The closest we have gotten in recent years was with the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bmwblog.com\/2020\/08\/07\/bmw-vision-m-next-is-officially-dead-due-to-cost\/\">M Vision Next concept<\/a> but that never materialized into a production model. For now, a flagship sports car is \u201cin our hearts, it\u2019s in our mind,\u201d said van Meel.<\/p>\n<p>In the meantime, the first fully fledged M car with an all-electric powertrain is rumored to arrive in 2027. It\u2019s allegedly codenamed \u201cZA0\u201d and could have somewhere in the region of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bmwblog.com\/2023\/09\/13\/electric-bmw-m3-in-2027-codename-za0\/\">700 horsepower<\/a>.
