Vehicle description
2OWNERS+CLEANAIR+ULEZ+HYBRID+2KEYS+The BMW 3 Series has long been praised for delivering driver appeal but, until now, it hasnt really catered to green-minded individuals with an eye on ultra-low emissions. Thats where the 330e comes in. Its a plug-in hybrid version of the saloon that gets a 184bhp 2.0-litre petrol engine and an 87bhp electric motor powered by a 7.7kWh battery. Sensational headline fuel figures and an electric-only range of 25 miles, paired with the 3 Series outstanding reputation, mean this could be a watershed moment in the mainstream popularity of plug-in hybrids. But is it really a viable alternative to a diesel? Being 190kg heavier than an equivalent petrol-powered 330i, youd expect the 330es road manners to be slightly different to its conventionally powered stablemates. But so good is the hybrid integration that its difficult to tell any difference. It is still a very good car to drive, with linear, feelsome steering, and while the extra weight may ultimately make it less agile than other 3 Series models, its barely noticeable. The powertrain is very good, offering silky smooth, quiet progress under electric power at low speeds and a seamless transition to petrol power when you give the accelerator an enthusiastic prod. It feels quick when you push hard, too. As ever with hybrids, it will need to suit your lifestyle if you want to fully exploit its potentially low running costs. It can cover 25 miles using electric power alone from a full charge, according to BMW, but expect this to be more like 18 miles in the real world. The claimed 134.5mpg should also be taken with a pinch of salt expect closer to 50mpg on typical motorway journeys. 18in Alloy Wheels - Light M Star Spoke - 400M, 6.5in Colour Display Screen, Alarm System - Thatcham 1 with Remote Control and Engine Immobiliser, Automatic Transmission with Gearshift Paddles, Automatically Dimming Rear View Mirror, BMW Navigation System, Bluetooth Hands Free with USB Audio Interface, Cruise Control with Brake Function, DSC - Dynamic Stability Control Plus, Full Black Panel Display, Heat Protection Glazing with Green Tint, Heated Windscreen Washer Jets, LED Fog Lights - Front, LED Headlights, M Sport Suspension, PDC - Park Distance Control - Front and Rear, Rear Lights - LED, Servotronic, Shark Fin, Sport Multi-Function Leather Steering Wheel - Black Stitching - Gearshift Paddles, Start-Stop Button with Comfort Go Keyless Engine Start and Auto Start-Stop Deactivation Button, TPMS - Tyre Pressure Monitoring, ASC - Automatic Stability Control, Airbags - Curtain, Airbags - Front Side, Airbags - Passenger, Alarm System Thatcham 1 with Remote Control, CBC - Cornering Brake Control, Comfort Go Keyless Engine Start, DTC - Dynamic Traction Control, Headlights - Automatic Activation, LED Tailights, PDC - Park Distance Control - Front, PDC - Park Distance Control - Rear, Servotronic Steering, Shark Fin Aerial, Steering Wheel - Leather - M Sport, 18in Alloy Wheels - M Double-Spoke - Ferric Grey - 441M, Enhanced Bluetooth Telephone Preparation with USB Audio Interface and Voice Control, Interior Trim - Brushed Aluminium with Black High-Gloss Finisher, Seat Heating - Rear, Steering Wheel - Heated, Dakota Leather - Black with Dark Oyster Highlight with Black Interior, 40-20-40 Split Folding Rear Seats, Seats - Front Heated.
