Scoop: Best Spy Shots Yet of New BMW 3-Series GT
After snooping around in Germany, our spies were able to snag some photos that offer us our best look to date at the upcoming BMW 3-Series Gran Turismo or GT for short. The prototype has dropped all of its heavy camouflage affording us a much clearer view of the car that will soon become the third addition to the sixth generation of the 3-Series after the F30 sedan and Touring.
This is the first new body style to be added to BMW's highly successful 3-Series range since the "Compact" of the 1990s, which was a three-door hatchback.
The 3 GT is a life-style orientated model sporting a five-door liftback body and a longer wheelbase than the sedan for improved passenger space.
The shape of the car is far less awkward and more elegant than the larger and taller 5-Series GT, though it doesn't appear to be as sporty looking as its chief rival, the Audi A5 Sportback.
