TWO new wagon models have been added to the BMW 3 Series range, including
a range-topping 335i version powered by the company’s mighty twin-
turbocharged 3.0-litre six-cylinder engine.
This means that the impressive 225kW/400Nm straight-six – last year’s
international engine of the year award winner – is now available in all
four 3 Series body variants; sedan, wagon, coupe and cabriolet.
At the other end of the spectrum, BMW Australia has added a new entry-
level wagon in the form of the 320i Touring, powered by the same
115kW/200Nm 2.0-litre four-cylinder engine as the sedan and sharing its
standard features list.
The 320i Touring is priced from $54,200 with a six-speed manual ($3200
more than the sedan), with an Executive version priced from $59,100 and a
six-speed automatic transmission adding $2600 to both.
With the six-speed Steptronic auto as standard (with steering wheel
gearshift paddles), 335i Touring pricing starts from $108,600 ($4100 more
than the 335i Sedan).
