BMW G20 318D

The BMW 3 Series is one of the most important cars for the German brand. It has been in production for more than 45 years, and by the debut of the G20, more than 15 million copies had been produced! The current seventh generation is another successful evolution of this model. Although at first glance, the new “three” does not bring many changes, it is quite the opposite.

The biggest change is the use of a chassis shared with the BMW 5 Series, X5 and 7 Series, making the car noticeably roomier than its predecessor. Another plus is the stiffening of the entire structure, as well as the lighter weight (about 50 kg relative to the F30 generation), which translates into better and more pleasant handling than its current rivals as well. Meanwhile, the state-of-the-art IDrive system came on board – this is also its seventh cover.

Being around the interior, BMW’s much-appreciated “order” and ergonomics of the dashboard (which is still driver-focused, as it was in previous generations) must be praised. The cockpit is not overloaded with screens, the operation of the most important functions (e.g., air conditioning) is still left in the form of physical buttons. One must also applaud the new multimedia system, which is very intuitive to use and is also found in models at the top end of the BMW range. It also features support for Apple Car Play, and when the need comes we can update the entire system online. Our copy is the “M Sport” version characterized by, among other things. “more aggressive” appearance, as well as appropriate elements inside such as sports seats and a leather M sports steering wheel, building a sporty atmosphere.

The sport seats sit really low, giving you the feeling of sitting in a sportier car. The two-liter diesel provides fully satisfactory flexibility, is very economical and on top of that convinces with adequate soundproofing. The BMW 3 Series in its latest iteration has become an even more versatile car. With the right add-ons, which our copy is equipped with, it will provide a lot of driving and daily enjoyment. In addition, the M Sport version is very pleasing to the eye, especially when combined with black M Shadowline trim. It’s an option for everyone and every occasion, as the excellent sales performance of the latest “three” proves.

However, if you’re a fan of higher-segment BMWs, be sure to check out the BMW 5 Series.
