AC Schnitzer reveals the latest ACS3 model based on the new F30 BMW 328i. The N20, 245 horsepower unit, was upgraded to now produce 295 horsepower. The torque was also increased by 60Nm to 410Nm. Due to the increase in power, the AC Schnitzer ACS3 now springs to 100 km/h in just 5.7 seconds, two tenths faster than the “standard” 328i.
