It is modern it is smart and the most affordable car for those who want to experience luxury that manufacturer has been known for.
One can notice a number of changes in the latest model of the car and that are predominantly in exterior. LED lights on front and at rear with a slight change in nose creates a good look. Alloy wheels of 18 inches another addition in this model alongside satellite navigation and other safety system like lane changing warning. Weight of the vehicle is much lesser than competitors of the same and it makes handling far efficient.
You have a choice to select from four wheel drive and rear wheel drive so there is no change in this feature of the vehicle. Drive at high speed offers a smooth and comfortable ride the maximum torque engine of BMW318i latest model can produce is 162lb ft and highest speed can be 134bhp. That is why if you are looking for higher speed then find out a more powerful machine under the bonnet. But at this cost it is simply impossible. With lesser engine weight there is minor resistance when you turn car at higher speed. For the entry level of BMW 3 series it is the most refined vehicle though does not match the high aspirations of the buyers but still it is a better option.
With new competitors in compact executive car series this series of the manufacturer has come under pressure and a lot more is expected by the customers.

Keeping in all the pros and cons of the new model there are still many reasons to consider it for compact executive drive.
