2012 BMW 3-Series Rendering With CS Concept Design Cues
2012 BMW 3-Series Rendering With CS Concept Design Cues
Wednesday, May 23, 2007
Over the years the 3-Series has become the car that defines the term "sport sedan” and the benchmark for every luxury car maker from Alfa Romeo to Volvo. Also it’s the best selling car in BMW’s range. That’s the sole reason why the Bavarians have been so tentative with the styling of all 3-Series models. Either you like them or not, design-wise, the latest 5-Series and 7-Series sedans performed a major styling departure from their predecessors. And between us, the current 3-Series sedan is undoubtedly the most boringly styled car in BMW’s range. Take out the Hofmeister kink, the BMW kidney grille and this could a Mitsubishi.
But that’s about to change in the 6th-gen 3 Series that’s expected to pop-up in the automotive scene in 2011-2012. The info we’ve got coincides with Automotorundsport’s latest CGI of the future 3-Series that draws its inspiration from the impressive CS Concept. AMS’s 3-Series rendering actually looks quite sportier and sexier than the 5.1-meter long concept thanks to the cars more compact dimensions. Maybe it’s a bit too early for any final conclusions concerning the design-road BMW's taking for the next 3-Series, but dreaming never hurt anybody.
