The BMW M3 (imported) is a coupe under the BMW brand, and the M3 is front-engine rear-wheel drive. Here is the relevant content introduction: 1. The so-called front-engine rear-wheel drive means the engine is placed at the front. The power generated by the engine needs to be transmitted to the rear wheels through the driveshaft, so the power loss is greater than that of front-wheel drive vehicles. However, due to the rearward shift of the powertrain, it can accommodate larger power units, which is why the 496-horsepower Mercedes C63S also adopts this layout. 2. The front wheels are responsible for steering, while the rear wheels are responsible for driving, so rear-wheel drive vehicles also have better handling. At the same time, when cornering at high speeds, rear-wheel drive vehicles are prone to oversteer, which is what we commonly refer to as drifting. The rear-wheel drive of the BMW M3 is sufficient and can adapt to most road conditions.
