BMW has launched the 2021 BMW M340i in India, priced at Rs 62.90 lakh. This is the first locally-manufactured M Performance model from the brand and one which BMW claims is also the quickest locally manufactured performance car in India. Bookings for the M340i have begun and the model is available for delivery after June 2021, with all prior units sold.

The BMW M340i is powered by the M-tuned B58 3.0-litre inline-six turbo-petrol making 387PS and 500 Nm. The M340i pairs this with BMW's xDrive AWD system, a segment-first in India, and an 8-speed ZF torque-convertor automatic. Other mechanical upgrades over the standard 3 Series are the M Sport exhaust unit, an active rear differential that controls power distribution to each wheel, a revised suspension with stiffer bearings, springs and ant-rollbars and a 10mm lowered ride height, variable-ratio steering, upgraded brakes, and the BMW performance stability control system.
