Why it stands out

The 2016 BMW 3 Series continues to uphold its reputation as a quintessential luxury sports sedan, designed for enthusiasts who relish the driving experience. The introduction of the turbocharged 3.0-liter 6-cylinder engine in the 340i model marks a significant enhancement in performance, delivering exhilarating power and improved efficiency. Its rear-wheel-drive architecture combined with available all-wheel drive (AWD) creates a dynamic driving experience that remains a hallmark of the BMW brand.

With its athletic handling and responsive steering—now improved over previous models—the 3 Series manages to maintain a connection between the driver and the road, although some critics lament a slight reduction in feedback compared to older versions. The car's interior, while not plush, is built with quality materials and a driver-focused setup conducive to spirited driving.

BMW’s iDrive infotainment system has been refined, yet some users may still find it less intuitive than competitors'. Enriched with advanced safety features, the 3 Series strives to meet modern standards of technology and reliability. Overall, the 2016 BMW 3 Series is a compelling choice for buyers seeking a blend of luxury, performance, and everyday practicality.
