A camouflaged prototype of the all-electric BMW M3, codenamed ZA0, has been seen testing in California, showing a central hood vent carried over from the M Concept Neue Klasse. BMW is expected to reveal the car in early 2027, with production starting at Plant Munich the same year.


Right, so BMW has bolted a central hood vent onto an electric car and we’re meant to call that a performance statement? Electric motors don’t breathe, love. They don’t overheat in the way a V8 does. So who exactly is that vent cooling? Nobody has asked, because the photos are all camouflage and nobody in this thread seems to mind.
