New 3 series

Undoubtedly, the BMW 3 Series is the most successful model in BMW history. Up to now, the cumulative sales volume of BMW 3 Series in the world has exceeded 3 million, and now about one in every two BMW cars in the world is a 3 Series. Since 1975 first generation BMW 3 Series came out, it has been considered as the model that can best express the characteristics of BMW cars. In the past 30 years, BMW has upgraded the 3 Series for many times. The new 3 Series launched this time should be the fifth generation product of the BMW 3 Series.

In September, 2005, BMW officially launched the latest fifth-generation 3 Series model in China market. The new e90 BMW 3 Series continues the leading position of its predecessors in the mid-level luxury car market, and it is indisputably the best model in this class. Every BMW 3 Series is designed around the driver, because BMW always thinks that the driver is the most important factor in the car. Based on this concept, coupled with the perfect weight distribution close to 50:50, rear wheel drive, responsive engine and comprehensive aerodynamic design, the new 3 Series effectively ensures the greatest driving pleasure.

The history of BMW 3 Series can be traced back to 1962, when BMW introduced the car 1500, which was called "new class" car at that time. This is a new car with beautiful appearance, excellent performance and sporty style. BMW 1 14, developed from 1500, laid the prototype of BMW 3 Series. 1975, this car was officially named BMW 3 Series.

The factory number of the first generation 3 series is e2 1,1introduced in August, 975. All four-cylinder engines are used, and the models are 3 16, 3 18, 320 and 320i, which have been produced until 1982 and 19865438.

1983 introduced the second generation 3 series, with the manufacturer number e30. Some models still use e2 1 engine, mainly the changes of front and rear suspension and interior.

199 1 ends, and the third generation e36 appears. It is also a double round lamp, but with a glass cover, it looks more domineering. There are 3 16i, 3 18i, 320i and 325i in the early stage.

By 1998, a brand-new fourth-generation 3-series e46 appeared. The body has become more fashionable, the new 3 Series has strengthened its power, and its appearance has become smoother, while inheriting the family characteristics of BMW. He was awarded the "Best Design Award" by the American Industrial Design Association. Models include: two-door sedan, four-door sedan, cabrio convertible, full-time all-wheel drive, compact compact, travel version, sports modified version m3.

At the end of 2003 and the beginning of 2004, BMW Brilliance introduced 325i and 3 18i into China, but at the beginning of its entry into China, BMW 3 Series did not get the expected market return. Because of its high price, its sales in China market are severely restricted, and its sales are far from the reputation of "the king of the world's mid-level cars". At this time, the brand-new BMW 3 Series with the manufacturer number e90 was put into domestic production, and the car was completely synchronized with the global market in terms of listing, price and technology. It is the listing of the new 3 Series that makes BMW's sales in China market grow steadily.

Appearance:

The slender body of the previous generation 3 Series has become fuller, less energetic and heavier on the new 3 Series, and the whole body looks like the 5 Series from a distance. Generally speaking, the body proportion continues the long front and short back of the previous generation 3 series, but the headlights are biased towards the younger style of the new 1 series, even more slender and sharp. The waistline extending from the eyebrow height through the front and rear door handles to the rear of the car makes the overall style more sporty. The outer "corner" of the new 3-series headlights is obviously inclined to the side, which makes its edges and corners become typical acute angles, exposing the introverted spirit of the car. The cross section of the tail is high and the rear end is tapered and rounded. Although the shape of the new 3 Series is not as classic as the previous generation, it has become more streamlined and dynamic. Especially when the waistlines on both sides of the car body are taken from front to back, the three waistlines gradually merge at the taillights, making the whole car look more seamless, but it does not affect the dynamics at all. Typical changes include short front overhang, more backward cockpit position and slender hood.

In terms of actual data, the body length of the new 3 Series sedan is 4520mm (49mm longer than the previous generation), the width is 18 17mm (78mm wider) and the height is 142 1mm (an increase of 6mm). The wheelbase is 2760mm (increased by 35mm). The luggage compartment space of BMW's new 3 Series is obviously increased compared with the previous generation, which is 20 liters more than the past, providing a total capacity of 460 liters. Because there is no spare tire, the location where the spare tire is placed under the floor of the luggage compartment is designed as a practical storage box, and a drawer-type sundries box is designed under the roof of the luggage compartment, which can hold different items on three floors. This shelf-type luggage compartment design not only eliminates the situation of overlapping rear compartments in the past, but also enhances the practicality of this car.

Internal:

Compared with the previous generation 3 Series, the new 3 Series has i-drive system and engine start button. Two cup holders, cosmetic mirrors and lights have been added in the front row, and the reading lights on the front roof have also been expanded, and the volume of the door glove box has also been expanded; Air conditioning outlets have been added in the back row, and the passenger's leg space has also been expanded. The new 3 Series also increases the diameter of the steering wheel, and the accelerator pedal still rises from the floor. The close-fitting seat can be adjusted in 8 directions, and the leg support can be extended back and forth and up and down.

The dashboard of the new 3 Series is divided into two parts, and the conventional parameters such as vehicle speed, vehicle speed, water temperature and instantaneous fuel consumption are still on the left side. A display screen is added in the central part, and information such as audio, gps map (this configuration was added in mid-2006) and vehicle status can be adjusted by using the i-drive knob placed behind the gear. The sunshade eaves of the double-arc instrument panel divide different levels of control areas, and all secondary control and display devices are slightly oriented towards the driver; There are two symmetrical circular instruments under the sunshade of the first dashboard, which is simple and clear, while under the sunshade of the second dashboard is a large LCD screen, which is used to display satellite navigation, parking radar, entertainment system and various driving information. Because of the i-drive information control system, the center console looks very neat, and there are not so many complicated buttons and knobs.

The new 3 Series introduces the advanced design adopted by BMW 1 Series. The width of the seat lumbar support can be adjusted. This design can make the body more comfortable when driving fiercely, especially when cornering at high speed.

Power:

For the first time, BMW used Al-Mg alloy in the new 3 Series mass production engine, which reduced the engine weight by 30% and fuel consumption by 16%.

The top new 330i in this series is equipped with a six-cylinder engine, and its output power is increased by 20 kW /27 HP compared with the previous generation, reaching 65,438+090 kW/258 HP. The maximum torque of 300 Nm can be obtained at 2500-4000 rpm, the acceleration time of 0- 100 km is only 6.6 seconds, and the top speed is limited to 250 km/h. The design that can improve the performance also includes a three-stage air intake system from racing technology, which was first applied to mass production engines. It can change the length of the intake manifold through the valve in the intake manifold to match the engine speed, so that the engine can have the most efficient intake at different speeds. In the middle speed range, the peak torque is advanced to 2500 rpm, and more than 90% torque can be maintained in the speed range of 1500 rpm to 6500 rpm.

The new 320i actually inherits the previous 3 18i, and now its serial number coincides with the actual displacement of 2.0 liters. The maximum output power of the new 320i 4-cylinder engine reaches110 kw/150 HP at 6,200 rpm, an increase of 5 kW. The maximum torque at 3600 rpm is 200 Nm, the acceleration time from 0 to 100 km is 9.7 seconds, and the maximum speed is 2 10.

At the same time, the new 325i engine adopts valvetronic technology for the first time, and the maximum power is increased by 19kw, and the peak torque is also increased by 5nm. Now it can output the maximum power 160 kW /2 18 HP at 6500 rpm, and the maximum torque at 2750 rpm is 250 Nm. The acceleration time of 0- 100 km is 7.7 seconds, the top speed is 242 km/h, and the comprehensive fuel consumption is 9.0l/100 km.

Other equipment:

The new 3 Series adopts a lot of new equipment, which makes the new 3 Series always leading in technology in the same class. In addition to the engine made of aluminum-magnesium alloy, the new 3-series engine is newly equipped with valvetronic (Electronic Valve Control System), which can control the opening times and lift of the intake valve steplessly according to the position of the accelerator pedal, thus making more effective use of the fuel injected into the engine and making the engine respond more quickly. The new 3 Series is equipped with a new generation of dynamic stability control system (dsc), which further improves the driving safety of vehicles. Other very useful functions have been added to the dsc system of bmw325i and bmw330i, such as dry braking the brake disc or pre-setting the brake shoe friction plate on the wet road surface, which makes the braking response faster, more stable and more powerful, and can also prevent the car from slipping when starting uphill and avoid the phenomenon of "forward rush" when parking and braking.

The new 3 Series comes standard with explosion-proof tires, which can still travel 250km/h at 80km/h even if there is a puncture on the way. As a new bright spot, this saves the owner the cost of a spare tire, and even saves the owner the trouble of breaking down on the side of the road to change the tire. You know, for BMW owners, it is unacceptable for them to change tires on the side of the road.

The most exciting technological innovation of the new 3 Series is the active steering system assembled on the top of the new 3 Series for the first time, which greatly improves the driving pleasure. The system makes the whole vehicle more intelligent. When braking on ice, snow or asphalt pavement with different friction coefficients, the active steering system can actively interfere with the steering mechanism of the vehicle, so that the driver can control the vehicle more quickly and accurately.

As the head of BMW, hua dan, the new 3 Series has won the reputation of "real-world car" with its excellent performance and unique driving pleasure, and is considered as the king of compact luxury cars in the world, and its real performance is worthy of this title. As soon as it went on the market, it won the top spot among mid-level cars. Skilled and stretched body modeling can be classified as a classic design, and the space inside the car will be considered by many people in China to be relatively small, but we believe that its space is absolutely sufficient, which cannot be a reason for refusing to buy. The front engine and rear wheel drive are its real essence. When driving, you can obviously feel its rear wheel biting the ground tightly. A post-exorcism unique to BMW 3 will make you like it immediately, and the steady frame will give you extraordinary confidence to enjoy the fun. The best way to really understand the BMW 3 Series is not to study, but to sit in the cockpit, start the engine and put it in gear. No matter what others say, try it yourself.
