The new BMW 3 Series Gran Turismo offers a finely judged combination of driver appeal and practicality, arriving as the third variant in the 3 Series range following the Saloon and Touring models. In effect, it offers the sporty dynamics of the former, with the versatility of the other, in a unique and attractively designed package.
Benefiting from a longer and taller body, and an increased wheelbase, the new BMW 3 Series Gran Turismo offers increased interior space and load area volume from within a sporty, coupé-like form. At launch, three petrol engines and two diesel engines are available, with a choice of either six-speed manual or eight-speed automatic gearboxes.
Thanks to the adoption of the latest aerodynamic thinking, in conjunction with BMW’s EfficientDynamics measures, including for the first time on a BMW an active rear spoiler, the new 3 Series Gran Turismo is superbly efficient without compromising any of its driver appeal. Despite its extended functionality, the new BMW 3 Series Gran Turismo typically carries only a £1,300 price premium over the Touring model, starting with the 320i SE at £28,830 OTR.
