Get a sneak peek at the BMW X3 M and X4 M

BMW hasn't released any numbers just yet, but we imagine these things can hustle.

Cars are Andrew's jam, as is strawberry. After spending years as a regular ol' car fanatic, he started working his way through the echelons of the automotive industry, starting out as social-media director of a small European-focused garage outside of Chicago. From there, he moved to the editorial side, penning several written features in Total 911 Magazine before becoming a full-time auto writer, first for a local Chicago outlet and then for CNET Cars.

BMW on Monday unveiled thinly camouflaged prototype versions of the upcoming X3 M and X4 M performance SUVs.

The cars, which made their debut at this past weekend's DTM race at the Nurburgring, will get a proper debut sans camouflage in the future.

For now, though, consider it a warning that these utes are coming, and they're probably angry.

We do know the cars will get their power from a turbocharged I6 gas engine built for high revs.

We don't know, however, how much power these two will put out.

For context, the SUVs' prime competitor, the Mercedes-AMG GLC63, puts out between 469 and 503 horsepower.

It's safe to assume that the X3 M and X4 M will have outputs similar to (or higher than) the GLC63.

The front end has a new bumper with larger air intakes, whereas the rear end makes space for four tailpipes.

The main differentiator between the X3 M and the X4 M will likely be the cargo area, which is sacrificed slightly in the name of style on X4 variants.
