BMW has given special attention to the aerodynamics of the exterior. At the front, there is a large BMW’s Active Kidney grille which can open and close depending on the cooling requirements of the engine.

This grille is flanked by Adaptive LED headlamps with a slight kink in the centre giving the sedan a distinct design. There are also LED foglamps for enhanced visibility during the night time. Speaking about the side profile, the sedan has clean lines with 17-inch alloy wheels for a more elegant look. At the rear, the 3 Series gets high-performance LED taillamps with the classic “L” shape. The rear bumper gets sharp creases with twin tailpipes for a sporty look.

BMW 3 Series specs include one petrol and 2 diesel options. The diesel engine is capable of producing 190 bhp @ 4000rpm and 400Nm of torque from 1,750-2,500rpm. The petrol engine produces 258 bhp @ 5000rpm and 400Nm of torque from 1,550-4,400rpm. Both the engines are mated to 8-Speed Steptronic Sport Automatic Transmission. The power is transmitted to the rear wheels. BMW 3 Series also comes with a launch control function.

The handling of the 3 series is really good for a luxury sedan, it stays glued to the road and the steering weighs up nicely with decent feedback. The ride quality is better than the previous generation and it absorbs all of the bumps and it is hard sometimes that something is heard inside the cabin.

Things to keep in mind before Buying BMW 3 Series GT

 

When buying a new car in general one must look for things like body panels that are out of line, or load bearing beams that seem to have been damaged. The next thing to check whether the paint is original or it has been repainted, a quick check under concealed plastic panels is a great way to check for unmatched paint. Another thing to check for is underbody rust in humid or sea adjacent areas.

A good way to check if the car has been rear-ended is by checking the boot. Flip open the spare wheel cover and remove the wheel completely. If the car was repaired after an accident the floor will have visible signs as the surface wouldn’t be smooth as it would in an undamaged car.

In the end, always remember to check for complete documentation including service records. Also, do check with the insurance company for any past claims, which will make you aware of the accidents the car has been involved in. Last but not the least, get the car checked from a trusted workshop before closing the deal.

    The BMW 3 Series GT is a fine luxury offering, one with notably more road presence and character than a lot of traditional sedans including BMW’s own 3 Series. In essence, it’s a more upmarket version of the 3 with better rear-seat comfort and strong performance.
