The drivetrain consists of an eight-speed automatic gearbox and xDrive all-wheel-drive system with a selectable rear-drive mode.
The factory specs say the wagon can reach 62 miles per hour (100 kilometers per hour) in 3.6 seconds. The standard top speed is 155 mph (249 kph), and the M Driver's Package raises the maximum velocity to 174 mph (280 kph).
This video suggests a driver might be able to go even faster in the M3 Touring. At its fastest in this clip, the speedometer shows 179 mph (288 kph). Even the GPS shows the car going 177 mph (285 kph).
