The sixth generation of the BMW 3 Series Sedan, the world?s best-selling premium car,
sets new benchmarks in terms of sporting prowess, elegance and comfort. The pioneering history of the 3 Series serves as inspiration for the new sports sedan, whose powerful styling represents a fresh interpretation and conscientious development of traditional BMW design cues. The new BMW face, with
flat headlights reaching along as far as the BMW kidney grille, emphasises the elegantly dynamic design of the new BMW 3 Series. The sixth generation of the 3 Series has grown in size compared to its predecessor, with its wide track (front + 37 mm, rear + 47 mm) particularly prominent, and the car?s
increased length (+ 93 mm) and augmented wheelbase (+ 50 mm) also accentuate its sporting silhouette. Inside the new BMW 3 Series Sedan, the noticeable increase in space benefits the rear passengers above all. And the BMW 3 Series range is now also available in a trio of trim and equipment variants
? the Sport Line, Luxury Line and Modern Line. Each presents its own individual take on the character of the sports sedan, with exclusive, high-quality material combinations and unbeatable build quality underlining the premium ambience of the new range.
Drive and chassis technology have
always been key areas of expertise for the brand, and agility and driving dynamics remain outstanding attributes of the new BMW 3 Series Sedan. The new car belies its larger dimensions with a kerb weight 40 kilograms (88 lb) below that of its predecessor. In addition to the sports performance
typical of the brand, the further enhanced levels of comfort on board the new 3 Series make a significant contribution to driving pleasure.
A choice of four refined, economical and muscular engines ? all of which feature new BMW TwinPower Turbo technology ? will be available for the new
BMW 3 Series Sedan from launch. In addition to two further optimised diesel powerplants and the already successful six-cylinder petrol unit, customers can also enjoy the talents of the new turbocharged four-cylinder variant in the BMW 328i. This latest-generation petrol engine rewards the driver
with a dynamic driving experience coupled with reduced fuel consumption and emissions.
BMW is the first carmaker to offer an eight-speed automatic gearbox in the premium mid-size segment. It can be specified in combination with any of the petrol and diesel engines in the range and links
up with the Auto Start-Stop function that comes as standard. Compact and exceptionally efficient, it allows the new BMW 3 Series to match or outperform models fitted with the standard six-speed manual gearbox in terms of both fuel economy and emissions. The new eight-speed automatic brings together
shift comfort, dynamic performance and efficiency of the highest order, making it the perfect partner for the new sedan?s dynamic potential.
As components of the BMW EfficientDynamics technology line-up, the Auto Start-Stop function, Brake Energy Regeneration, Optimum Shift Indicator
and need-based operation of ancillary components (including a disengageable air conditioning compressor) also play their part in reducing fuel consumption. Added to which, the new Driving Experience Control switch not only offers Comfort, Sport and Sport + options, but also ECO PRO mode, which gives
all the models in the range the potential to further improve these figures. This switch helps drivers maximise fuel economy through their driving style, thereby enabling them to increase the distance they can travel between visits to the pumps. The same goes for the CO2-minimising BMW 320d
EfficientDynamics Edition, whose peak output of 120 kW/163 hp contrasts with average fuel consumption in the EU driving cycle of 4.1 l/100 km (68.9 mpg imp) and CO2 emissions of 109 g/km. BMW will add further cutting-edge engines to the line-up in 2012, when the BMW ActiveHybrid 3 will also
celebrate its premiere.
As expected and like the new 5 Series, the 2012 F30 Bmw 3 series will be more larger compared to the actual 3 series generation : (+93 millimetres).
There is also more legroom behind the front seats (+15 millimetres) as well as more headroom (+8
millimetres) However, despite the increase in size, the vehicle is still up to 45 kilograms lighter than the previous model.
Talking about efficiency and fuel consumption, the 320d EfficientDynamics Edition with an engine output of 163 hp will require 4.1 litres/100 kilometres in the EU
test cycle, with CO2 emissions of 109 g/km. On the same time the 335i with six-cylinder engine and 306 hp has a fuel consumption of between 7.2 and 7.9 litres/100 kilometres in the EU test cycle, depending on vehicle configuration.
The Auto Start Stop function comes as standard for all
engine-transmission versions. An option eight-speed transmission will be available for all engines ? a first in its class.
The new BMW 3 Series models also feature a so-called Driving Experience Control. Alongside COMFORT, SPORT, and SPORT+ settings, there is also an Eco Pro mode, which
enables additional fuel savings, depending on individual driving style, of up to 20 percent.
Safety gadgets will include lane change and lane departure warning with collision warning and Surround View.
For the first time the 2012 BMW 3 series will be offered in ?Sport
Line?, ?Modern Line? and ?Luxury Line? configurations, which will offer customers additional opportunities for customising their vehicle.
Enhanced superiority, convenience and safety thanks to intelligent connectivity.
BMW ConnectedDrive offers an unmatched combination of driver
assistance technology and mobility systems for the new BMW 3 Series range. A new arrival in the premium mid-size segment is the latest-generation full-colour Head-Up Display, which projects key information ? in sharp resolution ? onto the windscreen so it appears directly in the driver?s field of
view. Also available is Surround View with Side View and Top View, which gives a bird?s-eye perspective of the vehicle and the area around it. In addition, a parking assistance system helps the driver to manoeuvre into parking spaces. Among the other assistance technology available under the BMW
ConnectedDrive banner are Active Cruise Control with Stop&Go function, the Lane Change Warning System and Lane Departure Warning System with camera-based Collision Warning system, which are offered for the first time in a BMW 3 Series Sedan. Real-Time Traffic Information (RTTI) and special apps such
as ?BMW Connected? for using social networks are also available. An innovative comfort access function allowing hands-free opening of the boot lid and the additional Active Protection occupant protection system are likewise included on the options list, as is Advanced eCall with automatic position
finding from BMW Assist. In the event of an accident, this system gives the emergency services detailed information on the nature of the collision before they arrive at the scene of the accident.
но вцелом отрицания как к новой копейке в себе не ощутил
А мне вот наоборот, новая копейка вживую очень приглянулась :popcorn:
А вот то, что я по фото задницу новой трешки не могу отличить от новой пятерки - для меня лично
печалька. Скоро БМВ будут как Ауди - все на одно лицо :-(
Жопой ни новая ни старая копейки не выделялись. Первое впечатление было от старой копейки при виде сзади "хундай какой-то". Вот перед и салон вживую очень понравились (хотя материалы отделки салона уже
"традиционные", но архитектура и эргономика, по мне, так на отличном уровне).
Вот только, блин, дизельная 120 в комплектации, которую я хочу, стоит в районе 1,4 млн :confused:
Что-то смотрю я на эти фото... смотрю... и вижу свою е90.
По ходу дела, автос-то не изменился. Если закрыть рукой горбатый капот, то от Е90 не отличить. А новый-ли автомобиль? Уж больно на рестайл смахивает, силовая часть кузова явно прежняя...
