Interior photos of the 2026 BMW M Concept Neue Klasse add a cabin view to the concept BMW is using to preview its upcoming electric M3.
That EV performance sedan will be based on the 2027 i3 sedan, which is scheduled to go on sale in the United States this fall.
BMW unveiled the concept earlier at the 24 Hours of Le Mans as a near-production look at the electric M3, also referred to as the iM3.
Previous reports said the concept uses quad motors, an 800-volt architecture and a 100 kWh battery, with output estimated at 700 to 1,000 hp.
