2023 BMW 320i review
The BMW 3 Series has been given a high-tech update for 2023, but some of its 'improvements' feel like sideways steps at best.

2020 BMW 330i review
It's hard to find negatives for the BMW 330i. The Bavarian sports sedan drives brilliantly and offers all the quality and tech its buyers demand.

Other Sedan to consider
The BMW 3 Series has a number of competitors because the 3er spans from a turbocharged four-cylinder, a plug-in hybrid (PHEV) powertrain and a turbocharged inline-six engine with all-wheel drive.
The most obvious choice is the Mercedes-Benz C-Class which offers similarly specced vehicles.
The new-generation C-Class recently launched in Australia and looks like a shrunken S-Class. They both offer high-end, premium-looking interiors though with elements of soft-touch materials and metal accents.
Option lists on both the 3er and C-Class are quite extensive and can get expensive your get trigger happy.
The 3 Series also gets cross-shopped with the Audi A4 and Genesis G70, as well as highly-specced Mazda 6 and Hyundai Sonata models.
High-performance M340i xDrive models compete against the Mercedes-Benz C43 and the Audi S4.
