The prototype sedan, captured by CarSpyMedia, is expected to debut as the electric BMW M3 within three years.

With one motor for each wheel, the performance-oriented vehicle is anticipated to deliver up to 1 MW, or 1,361 horsepower, and provide four-wheel drive capability, offering the best handling of any BMW M model to date.

When the electric M3 hits the market, it will have a significant advantage against powerful rivals like the Porsche Taycan GT, thanks to its four-motor special drive system.
