@@puttitat2851 i am not bmw owner, but i have driven some real BMW not diesel ones and in most cases i wasn't impressed, that doesn't mean there aren't BMW models that i would want to own, but not the current ones. BMW stopped having great Cars with the last e chassis Cars and now they are not great they are average in quality, ence the fact that most Tesla owners came from BMW.
I’m on my third 3-series touring in a row. I simply love them. Practical, sporty, fun. Lovely to drive. Always puts a smile on my face. Just a pleasure.
Had my M340i for two months now.. best car I've even had.. love it and the Sport Plus acceleration never fails to put a smile on my face. Always looking for fast B roads now..
I had my m340i for 4 months, I can not agree with you more. Before this car, I had a 435i and then later an s3. I must say this car is such a huge upgrade from my 435i that its hard to really put to words. When I was car shopping, I originally wanted an m4, because of the huge discounts they are offering atm, and I didn't even consider a m340i, because I use to have a 435i, so it didn't feel like an upgrade. But when I took the m340i for a spin, I was speechless. Its like 80% of the performance that m4 offers with better interior, tech and 30% cheaper than an m4. The value is just too good to pass up.
Was driving on a dual carriageway today and I overtook one of the kids in my year. He was in a 340i and I was in my a180. As soon as I got level with him he just floored it. I stayed at around 70 cuz im not racing aha but he was just gone in seconds. Mad.
@@3v3rhard you still have it? I just traded my c63s for a M340i. The suspension of the c63s is just unlivable and the tech outdated (although it had excellent headlights). I do miss the v8, I just wish the c63s had the suspension of the M340i and I would be very happy.
I got 340i “accidently” from car rent in Germany. My wife looked at me on the Autobahn, like this is the boy who finally got the toy he always wanted! Superb car! Btw. it also happens to fit 3 snowboard bags ;)
I drove a 2 series with that interior and I was a bit worried it looked somewhat tacky but I ended up liking it a lot, the car was blue so I loved the contrast
@@SM-1010 Please shut up, buddy! "Boring" certainly isn't the case with the M340i. Design always is subjective.

Mercedes-Benz and Audi are not as well built. I'm German, and I'm saying this without any bias. I'm just objective about it.
@@Porsche1969 It in fact is boring, very blocky looking with a screen on top of it. It isn't something that will turn me away from the car since we have Mercedes and BMWs in the family. There is no wow factor to it like you get with Mercedes and Audi. I would say interior quality is the same and this is where you are wrong. The BMW we have is a 3 series to be precise, and I was able to test drive a C-Class recently. They are the same interior wise, soft leather and metallic bits are virtually in the same places. Like Matt does in the videos where he shakes and pushes on the panel is what I mimicked in those cars. In addition, we have an old Mercedes SUV back when they used to call them ML it is built like a tank. I pushed on the parts and absolutely nothing creaked at all. There was carpet and nice soft leather bits down low where things would usually be plastic. They both feelgooand none of em creaked. It doesn't matter if you are German, you probably don't work at either company.

I bought a brand new m340i for 70k Cad before taxes, that's like 44000pound. And this is top of the line with all the options. Then I read the comment section and realize in some places the same car starts at 60000 pound for a base model. God I love the car prices in North America.
Daniël Oost I donˋt see any need for a hard, loud and track optimized M3 or M5 Touring. Tourings are (heavier) family cars. A M Performance Model should do the job. BMW agrees with my opinion 😅
I doubt its gonna happen , I mean something like a m340i is more than enough , an M car is supposed to be the fasest , most fun version of a car and adding a Touring adds weight
I agree! Just this past monday I put in my order for an 330e iPerformance with M-sport with all the bells and whistles, here in Sweden. Thanks for a great review. Watched this clip several times before I put in my order and also after! 🤘
Forgot to mention that it is the touring version that I’ve ordered. It will be one of the first 330e tourings built and it will be built next week when the production on the model starts. Car will be in Sweden late july 🍻
I much prefer BMW’s interiors to that of Mercedes and Audi. I used to prefer Audi but I’m not keen on the touchscreens and lack of buttons. I’m old school and like a good old fashioned physical button. Really like the look of this car too. I’ve always been impressed with BMW’s engineering. Great review as always too Matt!

I had the choice between the M340i touring and the 540i touring with M Package. I took the 5 because of some more space and comfort. It is not so sporty as the 3 but for daily use the better choice.
Love how BMW engines make more power than quoted and are faster than quoted but it's rarely mentioned. Supra, same engine, all the fanbois think Toyota are solely responsible.
That's definitely not a plus side it's a big negative. BMW bumps up their real hp numbers for press cars, for me that's just pure cheating and unfair competition.
@@freshklinki93 they don't bump up HP for press cars 😂 europeans use metric HP which is a bit more than the bhp they use in North America and they are allowed to be off by like 10% I believe which 370hp is 37hp so in other words these are prob over 400bhp and that's nothing to complain about it's a BMW station wagon hitting 0 to 60 times as fast as an Audi rs3 and BMW m2 competition
I have had my 330d tourer for 5 years from new and it offers great performance and economy, with good looks and space. Having owned several BMW`s this for me is the best that I have enjoyed.
Emergency drive Munich to and from Prague in middle of night. SIXT counter girl looked at my reservation and said "You need more horsepower". She upgraded me to the M340i and I fell in love with this brilliant car. BMW thinks people in USA don't want it. I will be back in Germany next year and I will buy one and ship it home. It's the BEST do it all car I've ever driven.

Been investigating fuel cost for 340i vs 340d. With current pump prices (1.50 vs 1.70) I reckon petrol version costs £40 a year more on fuel for 10k miles a year. Real world economy reported as 30mpg petrol vs 40mpg for diesel.
It’s kinda sad... I love my manual GTI and I wouldn’t want to go automatic. Other than that, the new M340i and 330d would be a nice option as a used car in a few years. Depending on the petrol/diesel prices.

жалко че още тази генерация няма м3
yes this car is nice.(referring to the saloon version though. i don't like estates) quicker than c43 but i'd take the c43.
@@ronaldsimon9718 why
BMW, ‘Its ok from a distance.’😂 Matt you really sold that.
I had the choice between the M340i touring and the 540i touring with M Package. I took the 5 because of some more space and comfort. It is not so sporty as the 3 but for daily use the better choice.
Love how BMW engines make more power than quoted and are faster than quoted but it's rarely mentioned.
Supra, same engine, all the fanbois think Toyota are solely responsible.
I think *everyone* (even the fanboys) know the Supra is 97% BMW.
That's definitely not a plus side it's a big negative. BMW bumps up their real hp numbers for press cars, for me that's just pure cheating and unfair competition.
S. Klinkhardt not press cars every turbo bmw
@@freshklinki93 they don't bump up HP for press cars 😂 europeans use metric HP which is a bit more than the bhp they use in North America and they are allowed to be off by like 10% I believe which 370hp is 37hp so in other words these are prob over 400bhp and that's nothing to complain about it's a BMW station wagon hitting 0 to 60 times as fast as an Audi rs3 and BMW m2 competition
@@freshklinki93 the M5 is 600HP but in dyno it's more than 600HP
If top gear are serious about the show they should get this guy. Matt alongside Chris Harris would be very cool to see
I would also add in ricky from llf
Im not first,
Im not last,
But most importantly
I just want watch Mat
Was that meant to rhyme?
Loser!
I have had my 330d tourer for 5 years from new and it offers great performance and economy, with good looks and space. Having owned several BMW`s this for me is the best that I have enjoyed.
Because of this test I bought the M340i with this colour and interior. The car is outstanding!
What colour is it? Mineral Grey?
Oxid grey
The oxide grey individual colour looks freaking amazing !
Agreed looks better in the flesh than in the configurator and photos
Configurator colours on their website look no way near to real life. True
With BMW you can also get REAL oxide!
I was wondering too how good this looks in real life, in the configurator it looks much more beige
Now, I'm pretty sure this colour looks better in person!
13:30 putting a smile on my face
*Please, BMW, an M3 Touring and M5 Touring*
But also imagine a M7 Touring/Alpina B7 Touring
ForgedCarbon I agree on M3/M5 Touring but I’m not sure the 7 Series Touring is necessary
@@levisanderson6951 lol yeah its not necessary but its a dream
@@stratis722 I can`t imagine 7 series as a touring,the same audi A8
Well the m3 touring is on its way!
Love your content carwow, you inspired me to start my own youtube channel.
Thank you for motivation.
That back window lid has to be in every car honestly
4.1sec is really impressive! 😉
8:37 - Matt on tokyo drift mode🤣
A decent looking & sounding BMW ? Ι am getting worried...
Finally a modern BMW that makes me say "I want that"
12:05 car: 26 mpg
Literally 1 second later...
Car: 3, take it or leave it
Thats pretty good. I'm on 16.5 mpg on the old N54 335i
9.8 L/100km M54B30
I get 13/mpg with the Mustang GT lol
Laughed so much at 5:34 😅 Brilliant review as always 👌
I’ve just ordered the 330e touring. Can’t wait :)
I’ve been a Mercedes fan boy for years, but the G20 is class leading for me 👌
Omg that's beautiful BMW you did good
2:32: Carwow hand of truth
Looking forward to the 340d version when it finally comes to the UK
its here already
Emergency drive Munich to and from Prague in middle of night. SIXT counter girl looked at my reservation and said "You need more horsepower". She upgraded me to the M340i and I fell in love with this brilliant car. BMW thinks people in USA don't want it. I will be back in Germany next year and I will buy one and ship it home. It's the BEST do it all car I've ever driven.
An amazing car, being a sales exec for BMW you do genuinely appreciate it a lot!
@@ThomasWong54 You're goddamn right.
0:52 I'm never gonna look at a BMW grille in the same way as before.
still the new 3 has a fugly grille as well. Hideous. Not as bad as the 7 or even the 1, but still totally hideous

Every BMWs' interior is looking very same...
But I luv it so much !
Classy , modern and luxurious
BIG YES FROM ME
@@manoszervas9613 Of course !
Materials are on the cheaper side though. And flat-designed front doors are looking shockingly poor.
@@dgukov most of new cars have used light weight materials...
Classic cars are super strong than new ones...
The look of the G20 is too smart...I really love it
Having a word with the local dealer after lockdown. Trade in my m140i
Been investigating fuel cost for 340i vs 340d. With current pump prices (1.50 vs 1.70) I reckon petrol version costs £40 a year more on fuel for 10k miles a year. Real world economy reported as 30mpg petrol vs 40mpg for diesel.
"It's so classic, sooo classic, classic!!"
Love everything about this car! Interior is beautiful as well!
Needs an aftermarket exhaust though.
I don't think much of BMW's but this genuinely looks like a very nice car.
I've had my BMW 10 years and this doesn't look any better except that interior is gorgeous.
13:26 Very rare moment
Despite what Mat says, I would still look for a RWD manual:)
I second this, pity that it’s only available in lowered-powered Diesels
It’s kinda sad...
I love my manual GTI and I wouldn’t want to go automatic. Other than that, the new M340i and 330d would be a nice option as a used car in a few years. Depending on the petrol/diesel prices.
Have to agree, car does everything, been wanting one of these for a while, even in that colour 👌
It's okay from a distance. That is a pretty spot on summary of all BMWs from the least decade.
I never liked Bmw Touring cars but this! This is lovely and you Mat you are the best too!
