BMW’s M2 Dakar and M3 Touring GT3 Evo are April Fool’s Day pranks

BMW joined in on the April 1st fun and played a prank on its fans. The Bavarian automaker made them believe that the company had two new vehicles coming soon: a BMW M2 Dakar and a racing car, the M3 Touring Evo. The “little lie” was posted on BMW’s social media.

The M2 Dakar has everything you want in an off-roader: raised suspension, wider fender flares, new bumpers with better approach and departure angles, and knobby tires. In addition, it also has a roof rack for the spare tire, auxiliary lighting for those dark trails, and skid plates to protect the 473-horsepower inline-six engine.

Meanwhile, the M3 Touring Evo is a wagon featuring a race-inspired body kit with extra air vents, a rear diffuser, and a massive roof-mounted wing at the back. The “new model” also has vents on the front fenders and intakes on the rear doors for added sportiness.

Despite all the luxurious and dazzling details, neither of these cars is real. Who knows, maybe in the future!
