SPIED: BMW's Next-Gen 3-Series Interior Gets SEEN

Wow is all I can say after seeing this. A Hungarian named Andras Deak may have just spied some of the coolest and most important prototypes that BMW is currently developing. On top of that, he also saw the next-generation BMW 3-Series and he got some intriguing shots of the interior.

This guy did some grade "A" work here!

Even more interesting than the 3-Series mule were the other cars the 3'er was with. According to Carscoop, Deak says that all of the cars were plugged into something which looked like an electric charger.

Although we can't be conclusive, it seems that BMW is taking its green effort VERY seriously if its volume players are all being plugged in.

Carscoop reader Andras from Hungary was vacationing in Obertauern, Austria when he spotted this convoy of BMWs comprising of both masked prototypes and normal production cars, including a sedan in full body cladding. Check out Andras' photos and story after the jump...

Andras Deak's Scoop:

"I am currently in Obertauern, Austria for my holidays and discovered a small parking place dedicated to BMW. I walked there to check the cars and took some pictures.

There were 4 "cooling boxes" for cars. At the parking area I recognized a heavily camouflaged next-gen BMW 3-Series (possibly a hybrid version), the brand new X3 with some light camouflage (also possible hybrid version) and several 5-Series... Note that all the cars were plugged into something which looked like an electric charger to me.. Maybe a plug-in hybrid?

The interior of the next-gen 3-Series looks like all the new BMWs these days. It looked like a small 7-Series from the inside. The navigation screen is huge. I could see several fingerprints on the screen (maybe touchscreen?), but also an iDrive controller..."

Looks more like an episode of Hoarders.

I remember jumping into any series BMW and being able to tell what car I was in. Doesn't seem to be the case anymore...can imagine someone shopping for a 5 series and deciding: "this doesn't look that much different and I can pay less for a 3".

No those are actual shots of the interior and it is as I expected- a mini 5 series.

Cool find. This interior really ups the quality of the new F30 over the current car........
