BMW unleashes its design prowess with a striking shooting brake concept. Will this head-turning concept become a reality? BMW
The new concept is basically a modern update of the beloved Z3 M Coupé, which was in production from 1997 to 2002 and known, affectionately, as the “clown shoe” because of its dramatic proportions. Follow-ups to the beloved model called the Z4 M Coupé and the Zagato Coupé arrived in 2006 and 2012, but they were fastbacks not shooting brakes. The new concept falls very clearly into the latter category.
The concept may be more of a design showcase than anything else, but it also sounds pretty capable. The vehicle is powered by the same turbocharged 3.0-liter inline-six found in the European-spec Z4,. The mill in that version of the roadster is connected to an eight-speed automatic gearbox and can produce up to 340 hp. That means the shooting brake won’t just look good, it will also be fun to drive as well.
that the two-door could one day go into production as a low-volume model. When reached for comment on Monday, a representative for the automaker toldthat while there are no plans to put the concept into production right now, the brand “might take a closer look at it” if there turns out to be strong demand. That’s enough to keep hope alive for now.
