The 2019 BMW 330i is a sporty little beast! And more good news: the driving experience is much improved over the previous model. This is the seventh generation of the 330i, so let’s take a look at how it stacks up in terms of performance.
2019 BMW 3-Series: The Legend Continues
The 3-Series is one of the most enduringly popular series in the venerable automaker’s history. It balances like fuel efficiency and safety features with comfort and luxury. The 2019 330i model by the numbers:
Horsepower | 255 hp |
Torque | 295 lb – ft |
MPG | 26 City / 36 Highway (Up up to 42 at 75 mph!) * |
Engine | 2.0 L TwinTurbo Inline 4 Cylinder |
Transmission | 8 Speed Automatic |
Drive Train | Rear Wheel Drive (Optional All Wheel Drive in 330i xDrive) |
0 – 60 MPH Acceleration | 5.4 Seconds |
* The 330i outdoes many vehicles that tout their fuel-efficiency – and even some hybrids! This is a remarkable feat.
The 2019 models adds 1.6 inches to the wheelbase, a bit more legroom in the back cabin, 4 more cubic feet of cargo space (17 cubic feet versus 13 in the previous model).
The 330i performs like a BMW should, and optional xDrive and M models up the ante even more. They are a true joy to drive, and precision and handling is on-point.
Inside, the experience continues. The 2019 BMW 330i is, as a Cars.com review notes, a “technology powerhouse” with a 12.3 inch digital instrument panel, 8.8 inch standard multimedia touchscreen (optional 10.25 inch), voice commands, and even gesture control. Apple CarPlay connectivity is free for the first year and available for a flat rate thereafter.
There is also a host of optional safety features, including adaptive cruise control, lane keep assist, blind spot warnings, forward automatic emergency braking, front and rear parking sensors, backup assistant, and – we love it! – Extended Traffic Jam Assistant.
