Performance

The BMW 3 Series has three different powertrain configurations. Each is available with either rear-wheel or all-wheel drive and uses a quick-shifting eight-speed automatic transmission to put the power down. The standard BMW 3 Series is the 330i, which uses a turbocharged four-cylinder producing 255 horsepower and 295 pound-feet of torque. The hybrid 330e uses a similar engine but combines it with a hybrid battery and motor setup. This clever powertrain produces 288 horsepower and 310 pound-feet of torque and allows the BMW 330e to travel around 20 miles using only electricity.

The range-topping BMW M340i and M340i xDrive come with a turbocharged inline six-cylinder under the hood. It produces 382 horsepower and 369 pound-feet of torque, allowing the M340i xDrive to attain a zero to 60 mph time of just 4.1 seconds.

Exterior and Interior Design

The outside of the BMW 3 Series is upscale and restrained, presenting classic BMW design details like kidney grilles and individual headlights. Sag Harbor area shoppers will love standard sporty equipment like 18-inch wheels, LED lighting, and a moonroof that add a luxurious touch to the BMW 3 Series. An optional M Sport Package adds Shadowline exterior trim, 19-inch wheels, and unique bodywork that separates an M Sport BMW 3 Series from everything else on the road.

Inside, the BMW 3 Series gets a beautiful new curved display and features standard Sensafin upholstery. High-quality materials like aluminum and carbon fiber populate the cabin, and optional leather upholstery is available in five different colors.
