BMW tests 3-Series Gran Turismo

BMW is developing a medium-sized Gran Turismo, which will repeat the 5-Series GT form factor, while there will be less in size. Will this car be called 3-Series GT, or will it come as a new model remains unclear. But it is already clear how he will look.

We managed to get the latest spy photos of the new model. We can say that the novelty is a mixture of a long sedan, not quite a hatchback and not quite a station wagon.

The heart of the medium-sized Gran Turismo will be the same engines as the new BMW 3-Series 2012-atmospheric and turbocharged four-six-cylinder power plants. BMW also works on new three-cylinder engines, but their appearance in 3-Series is not planned in the coming years.

According to our information, the new 3-Series Gran Turismo will appear very soon. We assume that the novelty will debut at the end of 2012 or at the beginning of 2013.

Most likely, 3-Series GT will appear in all markets. In the United States, this model should replace the 3r station wagon by analogy with 5-Series.
