Interesting stuff here. I’d love to see a new M1 :tup: > **[BMW 3 Series review | Auto Express](https://www.autoexpress.co.uk/bmw/3-series)** > > The BMW 3 Series offers fine performance, driving dynamics, technology and refinement, but electric rivals are catching up > The boss of BMW’s M Division, Dr Friedrich Nitschke, has confirmed that a raft of new models wearing the famous badge is on the way – with the M2 to be joined by a powerful M3 and a successor to the M1 supercar. > > “Our pace of development must accelerate,” he told Auto Express in an exclusive interview. “We can build more cars, and we can build a wider range of cars.” > > The new flagship 3 Series is due in 2014, and will feature a fresh 3.3-litre six-cylinder engine. This is set to get three turbos – one powered by electricity, rather than the exhaust gases – and is rumoured to offer 450bhp. A mix of steel and ultra-light carbon fibre-reinforced plastic in the body will help deliver huge pace. ---

I thought they already determined electric turbos couldn’t hold psi. Maybe its an electric pump to draw cold fresh air from a remote location. ---
