    BMW 3 Series 2016

    BMW 3 Series 2016

    FROM
    $16,280

    The 2016 BMW 3 Series range of configurations is currently priced from $15,888.

    Our most recent review of the 2016 BMW 3 Series resulted in a score of 8 out of 10 for that particular example.

    Carsguide Contributing journalist Peter Anderson had this to say at the time: The 330e is what used to be a rare beast – a hybrid that doesn’t look stupid and isn’t a stupid idea. The trailblazer Prius (yes, it’s much cheaper) is starting to look fairly weak, with barely 1000m of electric-only range and that ridiculous look-at-me-I’m-green bodyshell.

    You can read the full review here.

    This is what Peter Anderson liked most about this particular version of the BMW 3 Series: It's just a 3 series, only silent, Lovely chassis, Sensible electric range

    The 2016 BMW 3 Series carries a braked towing capacity of up to 1600 Kg, but check to ensure this applies to the configuration you're considering.

    BMW 3 Series 2016 FAQs

    How long does a BMW 330e PHEV's battery pack last?

    The 330e is a plug-in hybrid (PHEV), so it has a petrol engine and a smaller battery pack than a full EV (which runs exclusively on battery power). That means the BMW’s battery should be less expensive to replace if it ever needed to be.

    At the moment, the world is waiting to find out how long EV batteries last, but it’s looking like between 10 and 20 years is going to be the magic number. A lithium-ion battery like this one will last longer if it’s never over-charged and is cycled regularly rather than left sitting for long periods.
