    BMW M3 Competition Touring with M xDrive:
    Fuel consumption in l/100 km (combined): 10.4-10.1 (WLTP);
    CO2 emissions in g/km (combined): 235-229 (WLTP).
    Official data on fuel consumption, CO2 emissions, electric consumption and electric range were determined in accordance with the mandatory measurement procedure and comply with Regulation (EU) 715/2007 valid at the time of type approval. In case of a range, figures in the WLTP take into account any optional equipment. For vehicles type-approved after 01.01.2021 only WLTP values officially exist. For more information on the WLTP measurement procedures, see www.bmw.com/wltp.
    For more information on the official fuel consumption and official specific CO2 emissions of new passenger cars, see the ‘Guide to Fuel Consumption, CO2 Emissions, and Electricity Consumption of New Passenger Cars’, which is available free of charge at all sales outlets, from Deutsche Automobil Treuhand GmbH (DAT), Hellmuth-Hirth-Str. 1, 73760 Ostfildern-Scharnhausen, and at www.dat.de/co2/.

    The higher mechanical and thermal loads involved when driving on racing tracks lead to increased wear. This wear is not covered by the warranty. When driving on a racing track, gradually increase the duration of the load.
    Before and after driving on a racing track, have the vehicle checked at an authorized Service Partner or another qualified Service Partner or a specialist workshop.
    The standard brake pads and the wear indicator are not designed for racing track operation.
    Further information and advice can be obtained from an authorized Service Partner or another qualified Service Partner or a specialist workshop.
    Check out the other videos in the BMW M How-To Series and be sure to leave us your feedback in the comments below.
    The BMW Driver's Guide app specifically describes the equipment and functions included in the vehicle. The Owner's Handbook is available as an app in many countries. You will find further information on the Internet at: www.bmw.com/bmw_drivers_guide
