Now entering its fifth generation, the BMW 3 Series is once again pushing up the benchmark. As an extremely successful auto for the last 30 years, the new 3 Series impresses the user with a range of innovative and tangible advances to the engine, suspension and motoring comfort. The design language of the 3 Series reflects its independent, confident image as a dynamic and elegant sports limousine. The new BMW is entering the market with three petrol engines and one diesel. All four of these power units offer a significant increase in output, performance, motoring refinement, and economy. All models come standard with manual six-speed transmission or, as an option, six-speed automatic.
