Why it stands out

The 2016 BMW 3 Series stands out as part of the sixth-generation F30 family, a version that broadened the car’s appeal by offering a wide range of engines and by adding diesel and plug-in hybrid power. It was also the generation that moved the coupe and convertible body styles into the 4 Series, leaving the 3 Series itself as a sedan, wagon, and, in early 2013, the taller five-door Gran Turismo. For buyers, that meant a more focused lineup, but still one with plenty of choice in how much performance, efficiency, and practicality they wanted.

For 2016 specifically, the 330i used the newer B48 four-cylinder with 248 horsepower, while the 330e plug-in hybrid paired that engine with an electric motor for 228 horsepower and up to 23 kilometres of electric range. The six-cylinder 340i used the B58 inline-six with 322 horsepower, and the generation also offered the 328d diesel with strong torque and as little as 6.8 litres per 100 kilometres combined. BMW also offered the 3 Series with a six-speed manual or an eight-speed automatic transmission, and most models came with standard all-wheel drive in Canada. That mix of powertrains is a big part of what makes the 2016 3 Series distinctive: it could be a relatively efficient commuter, a quick luxury sedan, or something in between.

The cabin was still recognisably a 3 Series interior, with a premium feel, but it was not especially roomy. The back seat is tight, and the car is practical enough for a small family rather than a full-size one. On the plus side, the generation brought modern infotainment, and by this point the car could be equipped with a wide range of safety technology, including optional blind-spot detection, lane-departure warning, and other driver-assistance features. Its main drawbacks are the same ones that have long defined the 3 Series: it can be expensive to buy and own, and maintenance costs can be significant. Still, for shoppers who want a compact luxury car with strong driving manners, broad powertrain choice, and a more mature reliability record than the earlier E90, the 2016 BMW 3 Series remains an appealing used option.
