New BMW M340 // The 3 Series Is Back

The BMW 3 Series has now been released as the 7th generation model. In North America we get the 330i and the M340 initially. The M340 now comes standard with the M Performance Package including lower ride hight, adaptive suspension, M steering, performance differential and more. The star of the show is the in-line 3.0L turbo 6-cylinder, now with 382hp and 369lb.-ft. of torque. The power goes through an 8-speed automatic to a standard AWD system. The base 330i comes with a turbo 4-cylinder with 252hp. The new M340 is the car to buy if you are an enthusiast and enjoy driving. Unfortunately there is no longer a manual transmission available in the 3 series.

You’ve hit the nail on the head on the interior: bmw people (including me) are not looking for revolution but evolution. Keep the ergonomics as class leading as they always were and throw in the occasional feature and design element here and there - all we need.

You can’t never go wrong with a 3 series. I almost bought a 335i when it first came out way back in 2006. Instead bought a 5 series-I regretted it....It’s such a sport luxury icon. The twin turbo inline 6 is fantastic...the best I have tried...next to the Porsche boxer 6. Love it

Thank you Motormouth for this brilliant, simple and efficient car review, you can appreciate it. It becomes rarely to find an easy straightforward review like this.

The 340 definitely has the superior engine/performance, but I don't think it's that much better to justify a 20k premium over the G70. Also, to me, the G70 is a better looking sedan. I don't like how these luxury sedans are getting bigger and bigger. I prefer the smaller size of the G70.

Ya funny and he doesn't even mention the C43

[@gogasakva3631]

2019 C43 is more exciting

[@NeutralGenericUser]

Zach, I agree with everything you said in this video. This car is incredible, but it is just TOO DAMN EXPENSIVE! My brother was recently looking at a car in this segment, and we took a look at this M340, the S5 Sportback, C43, and G70. He ended up getting the G70 because it is an amazing car, looks great IMO (esp. the rear 3/4 view), and it cost about $17K less than a similarly equipped M340! That is just absolutely ridiculous. Had price not been an object, he definitely would've went with the 340, as it was the nicest car in the segment. The reality though, is that price matters; if it didn't, he would get an M3 or something.

[@strangeskull]

If you are opting for a buy not a lease.....G70 all the way......warranty is way better and the price tag is 20 GRAND less

[@diegomontoya8889]

That's a good point. I'll bet a lot of people lease these and then dealer sells them CPO down the road...

[@Lees3132]

@Paul Lindo I think we will have to wait and see how depreciation is. Newer BMWs don't hold their value all that well either. Luxury cars in general lose value pretty quickly. What I can expect is that repair costs and parts will be significantly cheaper and that alone is the reason I chose the g70.

[@ARentz07]

I agree. I can't justify paying so much more for the 3 series especially with the ridiculous gauge cluster it has. The inline 6 from BMW is actually wonderful, I'll concede that. I also have driven a 335i and was most impressed at how smooth and yet powerful that engine was. But, I've also driven a Genesis - a G80, in my case - and was impressed at how vault-like and comfortable it was going down the road, along with how easy it was to hop in and use every feature in the car. I do plan to try out the new 3 series soon, since my lease on my IS is nearly up.

[@Lees3132]

@Paul Lindo I can't really comment about the g20 platform but I just traded in my e92 lci 335. I do like the noise the BMW made but it had annoyances. Water pump went out at 40k miles, cup holder spring snapped, rear sunshade got stuck in the winter, weird electrical parasite causing battery discharge. I took good care of it and did oil changes more frequently than the suggested 15k. I traded it in with 55k miles. The f30 chassis on the other hand was such a disappointment.

Exactly i got the g70 is overall a better car .

Alright, really want to hear from you, if you had to choose between the 2017-2019 Audi A4, S4 or the M340i, which would YOU choose? Each to me have pros and cons mostly related to value for cost. I think Audi interiors are best, but the M340i wins sound, power and dynamics. An A4 does a lot well for a whole lot less. Look forward to your thoughts!! Thanks

[@Motormouth...]

The M340 engine is superb but the regular A4 is a fine car

[@architecturehappy]

Motormouth yeah I’m torn between those two, I feel like the S4 isn’t justifiably better for the added cost over the A4. Would wait till could pick up M340i at 3 years old to get the depreciation at a good spot.

A top trim G70 is 58k, and the nearest competitor from there is the Q50 which starts at 52K but is in need of a refresh.

@Harald Vestov I did the same, last year got my very first German car. 2018 Audi A5 Sportback, plan to keep it for about 6 years. So far it's been great, I mean it's only been a full year, so things better be good.

[@_Mario_PL_]

@Harald Vestov thanks! I really wanted the Sportback and here in the States it just came out as a 2018 model year, so nothing on the used market. I did get it fully loaded. I would save a bit of cash if there were used ones. I figured if I'll keep the car for 6 years it shouldn't be that bad. Fingers crossed it will hold up. A4 is also a great car and would save me more money, but I needed a more practical car, I do a lot of mountain biking and fishing and I wouldn't go for no SUV.

Thanks for the review. However there is really no comparison to the G70 Genesis. In the Canadian market the comparable BMW is over $20k more ( including winter tires and rims and extended warranty ) with a better warranty and probably better reliability. I have owned many BMWs and loved every one. But here there is actually no comparison. Buy the G70 and buy another new 20k$ car for someone else in the family. I have owned a G70 fo 7 months- a wonderful drive.

It's not $20,000. More like $5000. The top G70 in Canada is $58,000, the M430 is $63,000 before options. You could buy the BMW without some of the extras for sure

This doesn't feel at all like an M and they are asking for M money. The interior may look good on the surface, but is lower in quality than the outgoing generation and the ride is too harsh. I own a 2016 F80 M3 and it is leaps and bounds better and right now you can get new ones cheaper than the M340i.

The Genesis still looks like a better choice. This is 20k more!! That’s hard to justify

[@troypower4733]

Nobody makes a better inline 6 than BMW. There is no substitute.

Troy Power i bet you my g70 3.3tt engine is a way better engine , will last longer, and can hold more power stock internals .

wtf is with the grille

Looks like a Lexus

Bmw made in mexico , the ultimate driving machine . Square exhaust finishers yet you can see the actual round pipe . BMW has lost the attention to detail

[@elusivellama]

Wait, the M340i is made in Mexico??

[@venom5809]

LOL that price, I'd go with the G70, 90% of people buying these cars are stuck in traffic most of the time anyway so all that performance nonsense means nothing.

[@Mike-wc3jo]

Stupid comment. Sure if your life only revolves around commuting to work and back.

[@tharun72]

All that performance means nothing? WARNING: Non car guy alert!

[@tan9640]

Finally bmw have differentiated the 335/40is as the m340i with slight differences

[@uwograd4045]

Yes I will dare to say it..This would have been my next car that I always dreamed of until the Tesla model 3 came out. Just waiting on my current lease to finish

Interior > exterior

[@stevem2323]

Exterior is sublime.

[@HAssifi]

You can only tell apart from the new tail lights, otherwise same same to most people.
