Favorite Features
THE M3
The M3 has an almost mythical name, and the all-new 2021 model lives up to the billing. Fast, agile and fit for the track, the new M3 is the preeminent BMW sport sedan, powered by a perfectly balanced twin-turbo inline-6 with 473 horsepower.
XtraBoost
The new 3 Series PHEV sedans have what BMW calls XtraBoost, which is available in Sport mode and provides a 40-horsepower boost for up to 10 seconds. As such, the 330e PHEV hits 60 mph in 5.6 seconds (5.7 for the xDrive model). Of note, the new PHEVs can be driven up to 87 mph in purely electric mode.
Vehicle Details
Interior
The BMW 3 Series’ interior is clean and elegant, but not revolutionary. Some might find the 5-seat environment a little clinical and sterile. But if you’ve ever owned a BMW, you probably know this and prefer it that way. The overall build quality is excellent, and the caliber of the interior materials is high.
Under the Hood
The standard 2021 BMW 3 Series has three available powertrains. The 330i models use a 2.0-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder that makes 255 horsepower and an ample 295 lb-ft of torque. This will be more than adequate for the majority of buyers simply seeking a luxurious sports sedan. At up to 36 mpg on the highway, this 330i also is very efficient.
If you want better acceleration, get the M340i. Its turbocharged inline-6 puts out 382 horsepower and 369 lb-ft of torque.
Even quicker is the brand-new 2021 BMW M3 sedan, which is powered by a twin-turbo 3.0-liter inline-6 with 473 horsepower. If that’s still not enough for you, consider the all-wheel-drive (AWD) 2021 BMW M3 Competition. It packs a 503-hp punch, which reaches all four wheels via an 8-speed automatic transmission.
Folks looking for efficiency and fun should consider the new BMW 330e PHEV, in rear- or all-wheel-drive form. It’s powered by a turbocharged 2.0-liter engine with 181 horsepower that works with a 107-horsepower electric motor to propel the car. Total combined output: 288 horsepower.
The new PHEV 3 Series models can travel up to 22 miles on electricity alone, drawing electricity from a lithium-ion battery beneath the 330e’s back seat. BMW says EPA combined fuel economy for the 330e is 28 mpg for the rear-drive model and 25 mpg for the xDrive AWD version.
All new 3 Series models (apart from the M3) use an 8-speed automatic transmission.
