Latest Update on 3 Series

The new-generation BMW 3 Series went on sale in India on August 21, 2019, and it’s the seventh-generation model of the car. The new 3 Series based on an all-new platform, packing in more powerful engines and better driveability than its predecessor. BMW offers the car in three variants - Sport, Luxury Line, M Sport and two powertrain options - BMW 330i petrol and the BMW 320d diesel. While the base and mid-spec variants are powered by the diesel engine, the top-spec M Sport variant gets the petrol mill.

The new-gen BMW 3 Series is based on the CLAR platform, sharing its underpinnings with the likes of the 5 Series and the flagship 7 series. Visually, the car takes inspiration from the all-new BMW 8 Series sporting the more prominent kidney grilles, sharp-looking LED headlamps with L-shaped daytime running lights. BMW also offers optional laser headlamps. The front bumper also gets a new design, and while the lower-spec models come with more sculpted panel area, the top-end M Sport trim gets large air intakes with horizontal LED foglamps.

Another interesting feature is self-levelling hub caps on the wheels, much like Rolls-Royce cars. At the rear, the car gets new wraparound taillights similar to the new 5 Series that add to a wider appearance on the sedan. While the BMW 320d is equipped with 17-inch light-alloy wheels, the 330i comes with a set of 18-inch light-alloy wheels. In term of dimensions, the new BMW 3 Series is 76 mm longer than its predecessor at 4,709 mm, 16 mm wider at 1,827 mm, and just 1 mm taller at 1,442 mm. Furthermore, the car also comes with 41 mm longer wheelbase at 2,851 mm.

Inside the car gets a more spacious and newly designed cabin, with a driver-focused cockpit. The instrument panel gets a more modern look, while the dashboard features horizontal lines with high-quality electroplated trim strips and contours extending onto the doors. There is also an all-digital instrument console with a HUD on offer, along with memory seats, electric sunroof, keyless entry, 8.8-inch touchscreen infotainment system with navigation and BMW's Intelligent Personal Assistant.

The BMW 330i is powered by a 1998 cc four-cylinder petrol engine that is tuned to churn out a maximum of 255 bhp at 5000 rpm and develops a peak torque of 400 Nm between 1550 - 4400 rpm. The diesel option, BMW 320d, on the other hand, is powered by 1995 cc four-cylinder oil burner that is tuned to churn out 188 bhp at 4000 rpm and develops a peak torque of 400 Nm between 1,750 - 2,500 rpm. Both the engines come mated to eight-speed Steptronic Sport Automatic transmission. India will only get the rear-wheel-drive version of the sedan, however, globally, BMW also sells the xDrive all-wheel-drive version.

Final Verdict on 3 Series

The prices are competitive enough and BMW will like to believe that the lack of a credible rival at this stage will help it capture the compact premium sedan market. The premium car buyer in India will like that it retains its traditional strengths and yet gives a bit more by way of luxury and comfort, giving it a more all-rounder appeal than before. Expect to see a few of these on the roads - could have been more - had the automobile market not been badly hammered down as it were.
