BMW 3 Series Gran Limousine Summary
Variants
It is available in two petrol and one diesel variant.
Engine
The engine options are a 2.0-litre turbo petrol and a 2.0-litre turbo diesel capable of developing 255bhp and 188bhp respectively. They are offered only with an eight-speed gearbox that powers the rear wheels.
Exterior
The revised length stands at 4,829 mm which is a growth of 120 mm than the previous dimension of 4709mm. The extra proportions add to the spaciousness of the cabin of the luxury sedan. Other elements on the outside include LED headlamps, 17-inch alloy wheels, and L-shaped LED tail lamps as standard.
Interior and feature
The extended cabin gives way for more space and comfort for the rear-seat occupants. The rear doors have also grown in size allowing for easy access to the seats. Even the rear seats are likely to get better cushioning, support and a generous amount of legroom to provide cosier ride for the long journeys. The luggage compartment is also likely to benefit from the new change. Other highlights of the interior include a wider centre armrest, three-zone climate control, ambient mood lighting and a probable panoramic sunroof to add to an overall airy feel to the cabin.
Safety
All versions of the BMW 3 Series Gran Limousine get eight airbags, ABS with EBD, traction control, Stability programme, connected car safety features and ISOFIX child seat mounting points
Colours
It is available in four colours.
