Read excerpt
The U.S. configurator is live, and $15,800 in options pushes the new electric sedan close to $80,000. BMW’s new i3 is now on the U.S. Build Your Own website, which means we can finally put a price on our preferred combination of paint, wheels, and technology. Naturally, we went straight for the expensive stuff to see just how much the i3 could set you back. Starting with the 2027 BMW i3 50 xDrive’s $61,500 base MSRP, our loaded configuration reaches $78,650 including destination and handling. Th
New BMW 3 Series vs. Mercedes C-Class: Same Rivalry, Very Different Looks (opens the original)
Read excerpt
BMW’s Neue Klasse redesign meets Mercedes’ lighter refresh, with contrasting cabin layouts and closely matched four-cylinder power. BMW vs. Mercedes-Benz; a rivalry decades in the making. Saying it aloud probably immediately conjures to mind either their flagships, the 7 Series and S-Class, or more likely, each brands’ respective bread-and-butter sedan, the 3 Series and C-Class. In an odd happenstance (or not), Mercedes-Benz updated the C-Class for the 2027 model year. That coincides perfectly w
The New BMW 3 Series Makes Audi’s A5 Look Screen-Heavy. Here’s How They Compare (opens the original)

At long last, the G50 BMW 3 Series arrives to replace the beloved but aging G20 3 Series. Along with the gas model to replace the 330i and M340i, we also, of course, have the anticipated Neue Klasse iteration: the BMW i3, BMW’s electric 3 Series. First things first: we want to see if there’s anything substantial separating the gas and electric 3 Series, other than how
Here's How The BMW M350 xDrive Compares To The M340i (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The G50 M350 xDrive gets quad exhaust tips, a Panoramic Vision display and a 437-hp B58, but weighs about 420 lbs more than the M340i. Is there anything better than a fast 3 Series? Comfort, speed, style—it’s the perfect daily driver. While performance always falls a little shy of the full-blown M3, the big-motor 3 Series has always been a favorite, especially for budget-minded enthusiasts.
