Produót Planning & Strategy BMW Dealer Bulletin The New M3 M DKG Drivelogic Transmission (M DKG). BMW’s commitrnenL ror developing new technology in M cars has helped make the M cars legendary. The introduction of the new M3 with its high revving 4,0 liter VS has created a strong “buzz” among BMW M3 enthusiasts the world over.

This 7-speed M Dual Clutch transm!ssion uses two transmission structures In one large housing. First, third, fifth and seventh gears are grouped in one structure while second, fourth and sixth ore grouped in the other structure. When upahilLing UI downshifting, the system switches between the two structures so that when one gear Is being disengaged, the next gear is already in position. With this design, shifts are exceedingly faster and very smooth.

Drivelogic offers the driver 1 ‘I shift modes, 6 in manual mode, and 5 in automatic mode n you can tailor gear use to your qwn driving needs. In addition to its superior performance on the road, the M DKG Drivelogic transmission offers a range of functions for even more convenience.

The M DKG Drivelogic transmission will be an available option on the M3 Coupe and Sedan with a retail price of $2,700. The 6-speed manual transmission will continue to be standard on the M3 Coupe and Sedan. l.irnitd Marnh tO Miy prnd”ntinn nf thp M IDKC flrivlnoin trancmiccinh will hp availahiA in thA MS cohipA nniy Production of the transmission for the M3 Sedan will start in June.
