According to the news, the ever-strongest, four-cylinder, state-of-the-art BMW gasoline engine will be debuting in the now-debut, now seventh generation 3 Series 330i model. For the first hearing, this information itself is quite interesting enough to get our head on the news, but in reality it is the smallest news item for the new 3, as 260 hp would be enough for a 2-liter, 4-cylinder B48 code, so that the claim in the first sentence is met.
If we are here, the current 330i has 252 horsepower and 350 Nm for the B48 engine, and for the new G-series 330i it is reported to be about 260 horsepower and 400 Nm, despite the fact that car obviously complies with the strict Euro 6d-TEMP norm, which also means getting a gasoline particulate filter. The proximity of the new 3 is even closer to the fact that the factory is testing the premium mid-range on the Nürburgring and even some lucky foreign journalists have been able to try out the 330i in question, The pictures in this article, which were made on the Nordschleifen, were officially released by BMW and, in vain, the camouflage, silhouette 3 and basic shape can be clearly seen.
In the photos, the "M Sport" version comes with an upholstered (and adjustable) sports hatch, some optical accessories, larger discs and blue calipers brakes, two large exhaust brakes, and extra lightweight 19-inch wheels. The new 330i is also 'real 3' at first glance, the proportions, the kidneys and the lights all bring to mind the most important BMW series, and this is good news.
It is a good news that the press release said that the model's development work centered on sporty driveability; for example its center of gravity is about 10 millimeters lower than its predecessor, the load between the front axle and the rear axle is 50:50 and the vehicle's own weight is reduced by 50kg with a similar drive chain and equipment, and this has been achieved by designers with an increased body width.
