[@astroplutonium]

I hear way too many people complaining about hybrids. Let me explain why this car makes sense. My work is exactly 22km from home. This means that 80% of my yearly commute will be in full EV mode. In summer or winter. The rest 20% that i need to haul a trailer over the mountains or go long distance with the family i will be less efficient. But what does it really matter when 12000 km at least per year will be in full EV mode? Even if your work is 30 or 40km it still makes sense. Because 50% of your yearly commute will be in full EV mode. Don't be negative, be positive. I think the car is brilliant. My previous 330e (2016) had only 25km EV range and i loved it. I had to fill the tank every second month. This one now is probably perfect for most people. Next gen with 70km range will be amazing. I just wish it was a hatch-back and i would buy only that car for the rest of my life. Really. As always great review :)

[@corstars]

I live in Norway where the gas prices are apx: 6 dollars a gallon. I've had my 2020 330e for 4 months. I have only filled the tank 4 times. Most all my driving is electric. Excellent car! Am very happy with it!

[@paulwharton1850]

It doesn't get any better than a review by Thomas - Many thanks !

[@nippychops]

Thomas your reviews are just brilliant. You are hands down my favourite car KZbinr. You are also the only one to have a full 330e review in English on here. No other publication has done it so far. I ordered the car for delivery in September so was keen to see your review and you’re clearly impressed with it ! It was a toss up between this and the model 3 but the BMW won on quality and creature comforts. Hopefully I’ve made the right choice !

[@autogefuehl]

Congrats! And thanks :) what i can say is that this is the best 3series model. Please subscribe both our channels and recommend us :)

Or very rich if you want just some of the nice extras. As others have said: hope there is pre-heating if cold (unused) engine is suddenly cut in and hammered! 26:42 yes nice Mercedes-Benz W111 Coupe.

Thanks for the nice review Thomas. Very professional and detailed as always :) I think I have watched all your reviews on the g20. Especially the one with the 330i vs. the M340i. Based on this review I ordered my M340i with the adaptive M suspension instead of the normal M suspension. Thanks to you I made the better choice ;) However, I am a little annoyed in the aftermath that I took only the normal Parking Assistant and not the Parking Assistant Plus :( What is your opinion on this? Is the PA Plus really a useful feature or is the normal PA actually sufficient?

[@autogefuehl]

thanks man! Oh yes better choice! Hmm, I guess you mean the parking features that we showed here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/noSqp56MZ76biq8 Well, its interesting, but as for me, I still park myself...

BHBeckenbauer any chance for 1st hand review/opinion? maybe on different PHEV..Lexus PHEV? Subaru forester (PHEV)?

[@jsponson]

Thanks for the excellent review as always. I want more "EV" in my PHEV. BMW's approach simply tacks on a motor and battery to the ICE drivetrain. This kind of PHEV has full complexity from both types of powertrains. I wish they would use the same philosophy as the i series and consider electrification from the ground up. With a powerful electric motor on the rear axle, you don't need to run the driveshaft from the ICE to the rear, and you certainly don't need an 8-speed transmission. Four gears would be plenty to cover a wide range of cruising scenarios. Batteries can be placed in the central tunnel, freeing up some luggage space. With the ICE only being used for cruising, it can be much simplified to run at a narrow range of rpm, dispensing the need for all the variable valve timing and lift as well as direct injection.

[@autogefuehl]

Thanks 🙏

[@georgess01]

This color combo is dope. Regarding the infotainment, did you notice if Idrive 7 has a built in spotify app, like you have on Teslas? Oh, I presume that you guys received the invitations to drive the M8. Can you tell us when we will see that video? Awesome job as always! 👏👏

[@MrBianchista]

Which PHEV is better, the BMW or Audi A series?

[@wareidav]

I have a 2017 330e saloon which I consider a brilliant car, however the battery range isn`t as good with distance as indicated and the petrol tank is small so the overall range is at least 200km or more less than the equivalent petrol car. If you drive conservatively you can get over 400km combined range. The combined power is very good though and the drive in electric is like a magic carpet. I was considering getting the 2019 330e M-sport. After watching you review I will definitely be buying one.... Thank you. Informative and interesting

[@nb0926]

wareidav I’m considering getting a 330e, but I’m a high mileage business user... what sort of mpg should I expect over longer journeys? For example 200miles

[@wareidav]

@@nb0926 My 2017 330e can get with a (full bag of electric) and a full tank of fuel over 400 miles range. Which I consider good. I`ve just test driven the new 2019 330e. It is a light year ahead in tech, design and driver appeal. 200 miles range should be no problem whatsoever. I`m sure with a bit of good vehicle husbandry over 300 miles on one combined tank and bag (LOL) would be comfortably achievable. Hope that helps. Ps. I`m putting my order in for the 330e M-Sport with the M-Sport Plus pack. A very rounded car indeed.

[@carlosrumbero9515]

Nate , I think this car is very interesting for everyday going to work, charging over night, and some weekend road-trips. Doing more than 100 km a days its more economical a diesel or a pure hybrid diesel. Besides that, logic is important when choosing a car, feelings too. Enjoy ,

[@LesnyJebaka]

Great review, but still... waiting for m340i :))) Also, this 330e color... I don't see it at official bmw car configurator. Even on german site.

[@hanspanzer]

Any news about inductive charging?

[@sam28600]

I wonder how it is in winter conditions, with rear weel drive and a lot of torque. Whish it will come with x-drive also...

[@ohnename1358]

So last week I ordered a 330e Touring and in this process I didn’t forget Thomas and heavily complained about the senseless usage of leather and no colorful interior option with sensatec or fabric fe. In the end I went with the M Package with standard alcantara /sensatec which Thomas also prefers. So at least about 3 skins less for leatherindustry. I prefer light interiors but not at the expense of animals. Vielleicht liest Thomas das ja noch...liebe Grüße!

[@autogefuehl]

Awesome! Not only the better choice for the animals but also the best seating choice overall for looks and comfort! 330e Touring with Alcantara seats = one of the best choices in mid-size segment! Viel Spaß! =)

[@Donkens]

isnt the cognac leather fake leather?

[@user-fn2uo5cw4r]

Just wondering... This hybrid can cover as Thomas said 537 km with a full gas tank and 47 km with electric power. I guess that is that this 537 km with gas will increase while driving in hybrid mode. So lets say the car will cover a total of 800 km before needs to be filled up again with gas and electric power. And here comes the question; A plugin hybrid like this or a fully electric like i4 with about 600 km electric power range ?

[@burddog0792]

Mmmm the Touring would be amazing here in the U.S. :(

[@nevarran]

I think plugin hybrids are the way to go at the moment. You have the electric part for your city/to-work drive, and at the same time a fully functional car for long drives. Not to mention that for a petrol-head the fully electric cars are so insanely boring.

[@xinporco]

Could not agree more.

[@s1lenttoad422]

Agreed but they’re useless if the electric range isn’t enough

[@nevarran]

@@s1lenttoad422 True, if the electric range is too short, it kind of defeats the purpose of having it as an option. But even 50km sounds pretty useful to me.

Great review. I'm curious about what MPG you would get on a highway long trip at a contant speed of 130km/h, but you probably didn't get the car long enough to test all the scenarious. Will get to try it for myself next week anyway :)

[@toyotaprius79]

The 'cool, relaxed, evolved driving feeling' - is called driving a hybrid. And as someone who likes flooring a prius daily yet still get good +55mpg through good coasting and regen, it's that relaxing, soft touch (arse/F G-Force) feeling that makes you appreciate the management of momentum, just as pleasant as the responsive force of the battery/e-motor. _Thaaaaanks !!_

Dear Thomas, first of all thank you very much for the detailed review, I really liked it...based on your previous review (almost 4 years ago :-D ) about the VW Passat GTE made me confident to buy it and it was worth but now it`s time to change. I am really thinking about the BMW 330e however I am not sure now about the full electric range - in your video it showed 47km to go with full charge, that is quite low compared to what they are claiming in the specs 55-61km...what is your view on this? A drive 60km to work, 10km in city and 50 km urban. Do you think I can get 50-55km out of it? Thank you in advance for your kind feedback. Robert

[@Gunnar_b11]

​@@autogefuehl Not a clever move if it's true. However, this doesn't answer my question to your statement. After watching the video, it rather sounds like your personal preference or promotion of non-leather materials rather than informing about the sustainability or emissions break even point.

[@autogefuehl]

Check the video description and/or pinned comment in the other video, got all the answers there. Animal skin production does a lot of harm in so many respects. Leatherette however can be made from recyclables.

[@Gunnar_b11]

@@autogefuehl Your information is very biased and non-factual in this respect. Leatherette might be made from recyclables but is not biodegradable such as Leather. Which means it is made from petrochemicals (Plastic). The production emissions and environmental harm seem worse for leatherette.

Instead of id i noticed the Hybrid :? 2) Isn`t it heavier then the normal 3 series? I know on the 5 series that the 530e it`s about 500lb heavier then a 530i. 3) Do you still think someone should go for the xDrive as an addition or just let it be a real bmw? Thank you!! :)

[@autogefuehl]

Comfort mode is basically base, as for the other settings. Yes it is significantly heavier of course due to the battery. But feels lighter due to electric riding. Keep it real. Drove the AWD Touring the same day. Loved the 330e RWD - it's the best 3-Series imho.

can you ask BMW workers in Germany to hurry up :) need to wait 2 months for my dream car :) great review, thank you

[@autogefuehl]

Enjoy 😊

Nice review i wish though dealers in arabia stop boosting up the prices.. Would like to own a BMW for once.

[@adamsky7544]

looks great, but what about range of a battery after 5 years...

[@carlosrumbero9515]

In five years, who knows, maybe you can upgrade to a 200km range battery.

I could drive 95% of the time on electric only with this system. I might drive 40-50km everyday. On the longer trips I would have to use the engine. Charging over night is quite cheap in Ontario Canada so this is a very clever alternative to full electric. This makes a full EV kind of useless in my opinion at this stage. The model 3 AWD is 72k CAD here. I don't see the 330e being anywhere near that price. In fact, the 5 series version of this hybrid is 4500 more than the base 5 series so the 330e will probably be 54k CAD. That's 18k less than a Model 3 AWD. And I will never have to wait for the car to charge and deal with the horrible build quality and design of the Model 3. It's a shame the wagon isn't coming here. I think the X3 will be coming with this system isn't it Thomas? Anyways great review!!!

[@autogefuehl]

Thanks kev! yes indeed X3 to come with that too

[@kevinn1158]

@@autogefuehl X3 PHEV will be the alternative to the wagon I guess. Thanks Thomas!

Hi, thanks for another nice review. Nothing comes from nothing and as graduate engineer, although not within the automotive field, it's difficult for me to see, how adding approx. 200 kg to the weight of a 320i (and getting a 330e) can give a better “fuel economy” in the real world. I know one on a piece of paper can prove the better efficiency, but it would be nice to see a calculation from the real life, including the costs for electricity and petrol.

[@davidg8628]

If you charge your car, it will definitely decrease your fuel consumption, specially in the city and shorter journeys

[@88zczc]

@@davidg8628 Sure, but it can't be free to charge...

[@davidg8628]

@@88zczc it isn't free to charge, but electricity is hugely cheaper than gas, not to mention that a electric engine is a lot more efficient, specially in city driving

[@dstfno]

I have a 530e and it doesn't matter at all if I charge the battery or just run 100% on fuel. The running cost is the same. So considering the higher price of a 330e vs a 320i I don't expect you will save money at the end of the road unless it's on taxes, which is one of the main reasons these plugin hybrids exists.

[@michaelmeredith912]

@@dstfno how can it cost the same if someone does most of their driving in electric? in

[@andersburman5424]

You state that the range in pure electric mode is 140km, is that really correct? Thanks for a great review!

[@autogefuehl]

Thanks 🙏 no i didn’t say that

[@andersburman5424]

@@autogefuehl Ahh ok, it was 140km/h, my bad sorry.

[@GhostPrime21]

recently driven a bonestock 330i loaner. Man is it a nimble little car. But then again I do drive a x7 50i lol. This 330e seems like a very good daily

DEAD animal seats

[@jamesscott9817]

Excellent choice for UK company car drivers due to very low BIK tax costs. But Tesla 3 is still a better option.

I like to order a m2 E competition version with a carbon fiber body frame.😻 sport mode & wide hips

Does it use electric and combustionengine at the same time in hybridmode?

No

[@simonreeves2017]

The issue I have with PHEV's is that you have the weight of both drive systems, the maintenance of a combustion engine and complexity to go wrong as they age. Go either ICE or EV. They should be building on the i3 type design.

[@JOEJOEundBENNY]

The Live Cockpit is Standard in the 330e! The Information, that analog is the in the base is wrong!!

[@autogefuehl]

I m talking about in general about the 3 Series caus not everyone will take the phev

[@viperlook4118]

Autogefühl it’s not actually analog dials on the base 3 series there screens just shaped like normal dials.
