| Video Discription | For the latest BMW M340i pricing and information: https://www.kbb.com/bmw/3-series/ This is the BMW M340i and guys, I’m gonna say it right now, I like this a whole lot more than I thought I would. Let’s talk about why. The 3-Series acts as the workhorse of the BMW lineup. The base model, the 330i, comes standard with a 2-liter turbocharged ending (255 horsepower) and an 8-speed automatic transmission. No more manuals anywhere on the 3 until you’re talking M3, which will get to later. BMW also offers a plug-in hybrid in the 330e which also gets that 2-liter without the turbo (181 hp) plus an electric motor (101 hp) that’s good for a total of 288 horses and a 12-kWh battery that yields 22 miles on pure electric range. Okay, that’s great if you’re looking for Bavarian efficiency. This, the M340i is at the top of what I’ll call the “normal” 3-Series stack. This gets a 3.0-liter turbo straight 6 that makes 382 horsepower and comes with a 48-volt mild hybrid that is specifically for torque fill when you’re looking for power either off the line or a quick bump when you’re already at speed and say, passing someone. VO: And hey, yo, folks, this guy delivers the promise of that premise. Acceleration happens right at tip in. Juicy. Fat. Exciting. It’s there. Bam. This is quick and I like it. Just one note I also have X-Drive, which is BMW’s all-wheel drive system and that helps put the power down with some extra grip at every corner. The BMW’s chassis feels sublime. It’s responsive and compliant but with the right dash of tautness. I seriously don’t remember driving a BMW 3-Series that’s felt this good before. The suspension does a great job in different modes, well, that’s thanks to an adaptive M Sport suspension that’s got electronically controlled dampers and gives you a buttery smooth ride that’s still sporty. I’m not feeling a ton of unpleasant road imperfections under me. Even when hitting bumps that are bigger than they look. That suspension will cost you an additional $550 though. But more worth it than the $200 M 50 year badging we have on this car. Two ways that road comes inside when you’re driving. The first, noise. It’s nice and quiet in here. There’s not a lot to distract, and the engine sounds pleasing when you’re in sport mode. Are they piping that into the cabin a bit. Maybe, but it’s not bothersome. Second, in the seat of your pants. The seats here are not exactly plush The only other thing I’ll mention is the transmission. Shifts are so smooth they’re not even noticeable. If you’re not going to have the option of a manual, then make the transmission and good one that delivers power judiciously and selects gears well and this one does. You’ve also got paddles if you’re looking for some control over the situation. All that and fuel economy isn’t as wallet busting as some other performance vehicles, except maybe when it comes to the high-performance M3. (M340i X-Drive MPG: 23 city/32 hwy; 330i MPG: 25 city/34 hwy; M3 MPG: 16 city/23 hwy) Come inside and I’m again, pleased. Not too much screen but not too little. They’ve struck a nice balance with buttons for key functions. Apple Carplay and Android Auto are both standard but one gripe, connecting them isn’t always a successful situation. It took me a couple of times. Wireless charging is an option (graphic: $200) but the head up display on the massive digital gauge cluster comes standard as well as the moonroof and power front seats. The Driving Assistance Package ($700) will get you advanced driver assistance features including land departure warnings and assistance that frankly isn’t the smoothest in my opinion. Base price on the 330i starts at $43,800. That 330e we talked about earlier will cost you $44,900. This M340i I’m driving with all the packages you could possibly want comes in at $68,470 (base price: $56,400) which feels like a veritable bargain to the base price of the M3 ($74,300), which gets a twin-turbo on the 6-cylinder 3-liter (473 hp/406 lb-ft torque) and a manual transmission – and you can go up to the MC Competition from there. If you’re not as stoked about the BMW as I am, there are certainly other options including the Mercedes Benz C-Class, the Audi Q4, Volvo S60, yes, they still make it, the gorgeous Alfa Romeo Guilia or the Genesis G70, which the last time I compared it with the 3 Series in my book it won. Again, color me floored. There’s not a lot that didn’t please me with the M340i from the why it looks to the way it drives. If BMW had lost any mojo with the previous generation 3 Series, I’d consider it found. Check it out for yourself. I think you’ll also be pleasantly surprised. 00:00 2023 BMW M340i 0:30 Powertrain Options 1:33 Driving Impressions 4:48 Fuel Economy 4:55 Exterior 5:30 Interior 6:43 Price 7:28 Competitors [bPnXrmnd70I] |
