"A new chapter in the fascinating history of high performance sports cars from BMW M GmbH is beginning," BMW Group India President Philipp von Sahr told reporters at Greater Noida.

The cars deliver superior performance with a newly developed six cylinder engine and light weight design, he added.

The company, which slipped behind German rivals Audi and Mercedes in the Indian market last year, is looking to recover ground by investing in the brand and new launches.

BMW India, which is wholly-owned subsidiary of the Germany's BMW Group, currently produces various vehicles at its Chennai facility including the 1 Series, 3 Series, X1 and X3.
