2021 BMW M3 and M4 Competition xDrive revealed: Hot mid-sizers gain all-wheel drive

The 2021 BMW M3 and M4 Competition xDrive have been revealed – bringing a long-awaited all-wheel-drive system to the brand's high-performance mid-size cars – ahead of their local launches expected later this year. Powering the flagship M3 and M4 is the same 375kW/650Nm 3.0-litre twin-turbocharged 'S58' inline-six as the rear-drive Competition variants launched in local BMW showrooms in recent months, paired to an eight-speed torque-converter automatic transmission.
