BMW insiders reveal that the rumored BMW 3 Series GT will come to market in March 2013. The same source says that the car will be more attractive and sleeker lines than its predecessor, the 5 Series GT. However, it will keep the bulky look but will offer more legroom for passengers.

Internally the 3GT is referred as the “Progressive Activity Coupe.” BMW calls this prototype “Progressive Activity Coupe” because of the way the roof slopes down at the rear, but instead of a larger glass area as in a Touring, there is an additional quarter light and a wrap around tailgate. The rear end is a combination of Touring and a Shooting Brake.

BMW sees the 3 Series Gran Turismo as “the alternative to alternatives, a style conscious car with the dynamic prowess to match its looks.”

The BMW 3 Series GT will inherit the motoring options from the recently unveiled 3 Series Sedan.
