2025 BMW Series 3 with more tech

These days, the Bavarian carmaker is very active. At the Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este we saw the unique and exotic concept car Skytop, and now after the redesigned M3, the improved BMW Series 3 is coming to the market.

The new Series 3, in addition to the new colors (Arctic Race Blue Metallic and Vegas Red Metallic), comes with the M Sport package, which is standard on the M340i, new 19-inch M twin-spoke wheels, as well as a Jet Black finish. Buyers can also choose a new BMW Individual 19-inch set of Y-spoke wheels. It is equipped with an improved chassis, stiffer brackets that connect the rear shock absorbers to the body, a revised steering system to reduce effort in Comfort mode.

The interior of the new Series 3 is decorated with a new steering wheel, lighting integrated into the lining around the new central air vents, and customers can choose between nine different colors and adjust the lighting intensity according to their wishes. The Sensatec dashboard is enhanced with Galvanic controls, which give a unique glow to the window switches, door lock button and air vent knobs. The infotainment system, which runs BMW Operating System 8.5, has also been improved. New are the start screen, more intuitive operation and improved menu structure.

Fineline Light open-pore wood trim is now standard on the 330i, while the M340i gets diamond-patterned M aluminum accents. Buyers can also get open-pore aluminum or Ash gray wood trim, while the M340i offers carbon accents.

When it comes to the powertrain, the 330i is powered by a turbocharged 2.0-L four-cylinder engine with 259 hp (193 kW) and 295 lb-ft (400 Nm) of torque. The engine has been upgraded and now features redesigned intake ports and combustion chambers, as well as innovations in camshaft control, injection, ignition and exhaust routing.

The BMW M340i is powered by a new 3.0-L TwinPower Turbo 6-cylinder engine with a 48V mild hybrid system with a total output of 391 hp (291 kW) and 398 lb-ft (539 Nm) of torque, which is 4 hp and 39 Nm more than its predecessor. That’s enough to accelerate the car from 0 to 100 km/h in just over 4 seconds (with AWD) with an electronically limited top speed of 250 km/h (155 mph). The engine is paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission.
