5 Things to Love About the 2022 BMW 3 Series
1. Upgrades
BMW debuted its second generation of the plug-in hybrid model of this series and added all-wheel drive. Although BMW offered a plug-in hybrid in this series before, this version of hybrids underwent major upgrades. Nowhere is this more noticeable than with the 330e model, with its 12-kilowatt battery pack and an included 107-horsepower electric motor paired with a turbocharged 4-cylinder engine.
2. Handling
The 3 series comes with a responsive drivetrain that is strong and athletic while providing a smooth ride. An 8-speed, Sport, automatic transmission shifts quickly and smoothly, contributing to the smoothness of the ride. Drivers can choose from multiple drive modes to influence transmission performance. There are four different drive modes: Comfort, Adaptive, Eco Pro, and Sport. The Comfort mode is the default, providing the most comfortable driving experience, while the Sport mode gives a firmer feel.
3. Safety Features
BMW made many of its safety features standard as part of the Active Safety Package, and it includes features like the Frontal Collision Warning with City Collision Mitigation and Lane Departure Warning. Active Blind Spot Protection is available, while Speed Limit Info helps to provide additional protection when on the road.
4. Infotainment System
A 10.3-inch touchscreen is standard, with the digital gauge display for the dash being 12.3-inches. Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and Bluetooth are included, and there is a built-in GPS. The front row includes two USB ports, while a front-row wireless charger and two second-row USB chargers are available as an upgrade. A 10-speaker stereo is standard, but for drivers who want more, a 16-speaker Harman Kardon premium system is available.
5. Engines
Two powerful engines are available for the 3 Series. The standard engine is a turbocharged, 2.0-liter, 4-cylinder engine with 255 horsepower while the engine for the M340i is a turbocharged, 3.0-liter, inline-six combined with a 48-volt hybrid system providing 382 horsepower.
