BMW’s best-selling, top-volume model series is entering the new model this year with even greater momentum than before. BMW 3-Series M Sport oozes class.

The 3 Series is the sharpest drive in its class. Body control and strong grip give it poise through corners, while the steering is accurate and communicative

Now, this could be due to the general perception that BMW drivers have little in the way of road manners. It certainly can’t be down to the cars themselves, because with the possible exception of the Z4, they are all good looking and perform well. This is particularly true of the new 3 Series Coupe.

Despite the generalisation of opinion, the 3 Series Coupe has remained at the top of its premium coupe tree for many years and the company expects this to continue with prospective sales of the latest, third generation car to reach 13,000 units per year in the UK. Mainly, these will be snapped up by male, golf-playing, senior business people, according to BMW’s research. This survey also revealed that the top five reasons for choosing the coupe are: style, performance, handling and roadholding, comfort and reliability.

Next Gen BMW 3 Series Spied (F30)

It is still a little early but tne next BMW 3 series has been caught testing in Germany. Apparently sales of the current generation are reported to be less than encouraging hence BMW has to get 3's successor up & running as soon as possible. Initial batch of spy photos don't usually reveal much but the wheelbase of the 3er seems to have lengthen.

BMW will try its best to keep its body mass low as possible for better fuel consumption and performance. There is even talk of a possible hybrid model which could do well in markets like the US and Japan. Variable valve timing, single- and twin-turbocharging, direct fuel injection, and stop/start systems are in the works for a new generation of modular, four-cylinder engines producing 140 to 230 hp. A 2.0-liter version with close to 300 hp is possible, but I am optimistic BMW will keep at least one of its 3.0-liter inline-sixes in the line-up. Rumours also suggest a small four-cylinder petrol turbo such as a 1.6-litre.

The sad part is that the 4.0-litre V8 from today's M3, replaced with a straight six twin-turbocharged unit with direct injection. BMW is also planning to Spawn a five-door hatchback '3GT' akin to the 5GT.
