New BMW 3 Series G50 sales set to begin in the first quarter of 2027

The design of the eighth-generation petrol-powered 3 Series draws on the electric i3 Neue Klasse. RBC showcased the car’s revised styling in a photo gallery with images credited to BMW Group.

The range-topping version will be the M350 xDrive, with a claimed output of 443 hp. According to the announced specifications, it will accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in 4.1 seconds. A “Drift” mode that redirects power to the rear wheels has also been announced for the car.

According to RBC, sales of the new 3 Series are scheduled to begin in the first quarter of 2027. The BMW G50 is expected to arrive in Russia in the spring through parallel import channels.
