2016 BMW 3 Series

BMW added the acclaimed petrol version of its 3 Series, the 330i, to their Indian portfolio in May this year. It goes without saying that it caters to the petrol-head crowd who like the smoothness and refinement that’s associated with a gasoline motor. Let’s dive into the looks now.

The F30 generation 3 Series was introduced in 2012 in India and continued BMW’s tradition of outstanding performance and great dynamics. But with an impressive new Mercedes-Benz C-Class to fight off, an all-new Audi A4 arriving later this year and a fresh and desirable newcomer on the scene which goes by the name of Jaguar XE, the 3 Series needs to stay fresh in order to overcome its rivals.

2015 marks 40 years of the BMW 3 Series, with the original E21 3 Series premiering back in 1975. To celebrate the premium compact sedan’s existence, BMW launched the facelifted model earlier this year. Featuring discreet design updates and new engine options, the 3 Series facelift competes with the all-new Audi A4 and the Jaguar XE and is headed for the Indian market.
