They are. This is a four-door Coupe, or Gran Coupe in BMW parlance. Note that, unlike a BMW sedan, it will seat just four, and it will share most of its styling with the 6 series Coupe.

So does mean they're going to make a 3-series coupe alongside a 4-series coupe and 4 series sedan?!
No. What they are going to do is this:

1 series - hatchbacks of all sorts, including a GT
2 series - coupe, cabriolet, gran coupe

3 series - sedan, touring, GT
4 series - coupe, cabriolet, gran coupe

5 series - sedan, touring, GT
6 series - coupe, cabriolet, gran coupe

7 series - sedans

It's actually fairly straightforward and orthogonal.
