Now that the\u00a0Tesla Model 3<\/a>\u00a0is here, you\u2019d figure more and more premium brands would be jumping on the mid-size electric sedan scene. Fortunately, BMW is doing just that, by introducing an entirely electric 3 Series.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, it\u2019s only coming to the Chinese market. Some new spy photos have emerged, showing off this new BMW 3 Series electric, only further tempting us with something we can\u2019t have. (We don\u2019t own the spy photos but they can be seen\u00a0here<\/a>)<\/p>\n

In these photos, we see a G20-gen 3 Series doing some camouflaged testing on the road. It\u2019s been awhile since we\u2019ve see a G20 wrapped in camo, which tells us that this is a new model. The badges on the car say that it\u2019s an \u201cElectric Test Vehicle\u201d, which isn\u2019t uncommon to see, as all EVs test mules get that badge.<\/p>\n

Admittedly, that sign can be for plug-in hybrids as well. However, considering the fact that we\u2019ve already seen the new 3 Series plug-in \u2014\u00a0the 330e<\/a>\u00a0\u2014 this is unlikely to be it. It also has no exhaust pipes at all. So it stands to reason that this test mule is an all-electric 3er.<\/p>\n

From what we\u2019ve been told, the BMW 3 Series electric is going to be a Chinese-market only car. In these photos, it seems as if it\u2019s testing somewhere in Europe, judging by the license plates. However this could just be for testing. After all, we\u2019ve heard directly from BMW that the 3 Series electric won\u2019t be coming to most markets, with most of the world getting the\u00a0BMW i4<\/a>\u00a0instead.<\/p>\n

According to\u00a0Autocar<\/a>, BMW design chief Domagoj Dukec recently told them \u201celectrification is still at the point where some people doubt if they should go for it or not, and it\u2019s still a little more expensive. So electric cars need more emotion, and we believe an electrified i4 makes more sense than an electric 3 Series.\u201d<\/p>\n

So if you want an all-electric BMW sedan, you\u2019re going to have to wait for the i4. Considering it will pack over 500 horsepower and all-wheel drive, that doesn\u2019t sound like too much of a compromise.<\/p>\n
