Each BMW NeueClassic model embodies the dynamics and styling of the originals, but with the benefit of meeting current safety and emission standards, level 2+ self-driving capabilities, and the latest ID9 iDrive (via a hidden heads-up display) system. Even the sound system has been reimagined with Bowers & Wilkins, making that 80s playlist sound better than ever.
A variety of technologies went into recreating the BMW NeueClassic E30 M3’s engine block.
The 2025 BMW NeueClassic E30 M3 EVO was revealed as the first fully-functional showcase of BMW’s skill with advanced manufacturing.
The stunning 2025 BMW NeueClassic E30 M3 EVO shown was built “to showcase the remarkable capabilities and flexibility of BMW’s continued advancement in manufacturing techniques… BMW has long been at the forefront of additive manufacturing. And today we showcase those advancements, as well as celebrating the 50 Years of the 3 Series, by presenting a vision of the future that honors the past. As BMW current design emboldens the future with its Neue Klasse of vehicles, we honor our past with BMW NeueClassic.”
“We have been building toward this for over 30 years,” stated Heinrich Hoffmeister, newly appointed CEO of BMW NeueClassic GmbH. “Enthusiasts no longer have to choose between driving their classic BMW or enjoying all the functionality of a modern BMW. They can now have both in the same car! I love my original E30 M3 but it is not ideal for long drives. With the BMW NeueClassic M3, I have the all the features of a modern BMW, making long drives far more enjoyable. And now, clients can get the classic design, dynamic feel, and ultimate driving experience of a classic BMW—optimized with all the modern safety, technology, and convenience features possible. It is a perfect combination!”
