Can the new 3 Series Sport not perform launch control?

The new 3 Series Sport can perform launch control. BMW 3 Series launch control method: Long press the traction control button (the button above the Sport/ECO mode selector near the gearshift) until DSC deactivation is indicated. Then, press the brake pedal with your left foot while pressing the accelerator with your right foot. When the RPM reaches 3000, fully depress the accelerator while simultaneously releasing the brake. BMW 3 Series starting precautions: Ensure smooth starts. For normal starts, maintain proper driving posture, keep eyes on the road ahead and both sides, and avoid jerking, stalling, or surging. Confirm all electronic stability systems are disabled as they will prevent launch control like a teacher monitoring classroom behavior. When pressing both pedals, the vehicle will indicate launch control activation. Pay attention to gear selection when starting. Choose appropriate gears based on road conditions: use 1st or 2nd gear on flat, solid surfaces; always use 1st gear in extreme cold, loose soil, or uphill conditions; 1st gear is also mandatory for snowy/muddy roads, along with clearing wheel tracks or applying sand/gravel under tires.
