Leads the charge in the premium executive class. Its primary appeal is the way it drives, but its engines, standard equipment list and infotainment system are first-rate too. The firm ride on M Sport models is just about the only thing we can grumble about in this near-flawless executive car.
Entry-level Sport comes with all you’d need, including 17in alloy wheels, LED headlights, heated front seats, three-zone air conditioning, cruise control and BMW’s excellent iDrive infotainment system.
The perky 181bhp 320i is an excellent option if you don’t fancy a diesel or have the option to plug-in very often. Its rev-happy nature sits well with the 3 Series' sporty character.
At What Car?, we believe that no one should overpay for their new car, which is why we created our free New Car Buying service. This links you with trusted local dealers who base their offers on prices haggled by our mystery shoppers.
