In case you weren’t aware, BMW has been running a YouTube series to slowly unveil what we assume will be the first-ever all-electric BMW M3. In the very first episode back in December 2024, it confirmed that its prototypes were using four electric motors to create massive power.
We now know that the power figure is around 1,000hp, and in this latest episode, we get to hear said prototype for the very first time.

Anyone else convinced they’re just playing an audio file from The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift? That is some bonkers fake turbo whoosh on full throttle. Anyway, have a listen below and let us know what you think in the comments...
