What features does the BMW 3 Series have?
The BMW 3 Series guarantees its drivers many extra features and embellishments.
Even the entry-level models usually include kit like parking sensors and other helpful parking aids, a built-in sat-nav and heated seats.
There’s ample space in the 3 Series range, with both the Touring and Saloon body styles offering a comfortable cabin and a roomy boot.

How much does the BMW 3 Series cost to run?
With a luxury car like the 3 Series, you may have to pay more for replacement parts, but these will be high-quality and last longer.

Who is the BMW 3 Series suitable for?
All 3 Series models are spicy and fun to drive but will still work as a daily driver or practical family car.

Rivals of the 3 Series include the Mercedes C-Class and Audi A4.
