New BMW M4 and M3 to feature a “Smokey Burnout” feature

According to TopGear UK, the new BMW M3 and BMW M4 will come with a new feature called “Smokey Burnout”.

The seven-speed double clutch (DCT) transmission features the Smokey Burnout function. Both cars pack a 3.0-liter straight-six engine producing 431bhp with a 7,600rpm redline, and a whopping 406lb ft.

Both M3 and M4 are are as expected rear-wheel-drive, and that extra power moves less weight: both are roughly 80kg lighter than their predecessors, with the M4 weighing in at 1500kg, and the M3 sedan just 23kg heavier. Both will do 0-62mph in 4.3 seconds (4.1s with the DCT ‘box) and run on to a limited 155mph.

In the UK, the prices for the M3 sedan start at £56,175, while the M4 Coupe starts at £56,653.
