3 Series drag race let’s goooo!
We’ve got our hands on a BMW M340i, M340d & 330e, and they’re going head-to-head to see just how different the performance is of a petrol, diesel & plug-in hybrid 3 Series. However, they’re not all stock - each car has had a stage one tune! So let’s see how they compare.
Starting with Mat in the M340d Touring, it’s powered by a 3-litre straight-six diesel that can now put down 430hp and 850Nm. Power is sent to all four wheels via an 8-speed automatic gearbox, and it weighs in at 1,945kg.
Next up we have the M340i. It’s equipped with a 3-litre straight-six petrol, and it now puts down 470hp and 630Nm. Like the diesel power is sent to all four wheels via an 8-speed automatic gearbox, and it weighs in at just 1758kg.
Then finally we have the 330e. It’s equipped with a 2-litre turbocharged 4 cylinder coupled with an electric motor, and these combine to put down 400hp and 700Nm. Power is only sent to the rear wheels only via an 8-speed automatic gearbox, and it’s also the lightest car here, tipping the scales at scales at 1,740kg.
So the M340i has the most power, but will it be an easy win? Or could the diesel or plug-in hybrid snatch it? There’s only one way to find out… LET’S RACE!

Car with Matt will take the day😅😅😅
Ok👍
Carwow when will the Agera rst and Chiron super sport drag race be
Why didn’t you contact me to include my tuned M3 Touring in the lineup? 🥺
Matt : come on diesel!
Matt 3seconds later : damn it diesel!
and I bet 5 on the diesel
@@alexrekzu40795 probably used a turbo diesel on it.
That was close tho💀
Matt: 3 more seconds later: where's the plug in hybrid?
Lol never use diesel on drag race:):)
Gasoline is way more responsive and turbos can help better and have better power/torque graph.
Are you telling me, Diesel didn't Vin?
Sorry some slow mfs didn’t get it😭 but this comment is perfect
Underrated affff comment 😂 the German AND vin diesel link 😂😂😂
Ohh took me a sec lol
I'm B58 all the way, but i have to say the 330e with a map is a HUGE difference over stock!
Even with 117,000 miles on it!!

Just 2 cylinders lesssss.😂
@@pasma1983noo its totally different
@@bmwsincekid no, you are wrong!!!
330e does have launch control, gearbox to the left, in sport settings go to xtra boost (as its a hybrid) and traction off :)
BMW either creates a masterpiece or a headache or both in one😂.
I think BMW created a lot of masterpieces in those cars, man.
Unique masterpiece ⚡
Bro described 95% of cars
They always create a masterpieces with headache
If you start to tune any car, it will come with headache eventually. 😅
FYI the 330e does have launch control, you just have to turn DSC off to do it. Would love to see how the 330e would do if it had a perfect launch
@@24k__J We've never had an issue with ours haha; like they said in the video though, messing with the cars performance will bring issues but I'm going to guess this one was just a driver error

You are lying to everyone, it was actually BMW who won 🫶🏻
Aww cmon man why did you have to spoil it
which one had the spoiler?
No doubt
Which one🗿
I have a stage 1 330e and I honestly love it because it's the cheapest straight line performance car I think of. I pootle to work and back on electric only mode then if I want a bit of speed in xtraboost mode it absolutely flies! Mine was dyno'd at 415bhp in xtraboost which is crazy all things considered.
The downside of the car is that you have to be careful about oil temp - if you've been running in electric only and suddenly want to boot it, you have a cold engine and have to wait 5 mins for it to warm up.
Overall I love it though, I average well over 50mpg all of the time but have enough power to surprise 95% of cars on the road.
Also - it does have launch control its just extremely finicky to get working!
60k M3P Ludicrous 639hp/700hp boost upgrade ⚡️🇺🇲
Bmw launch control is known to be a nightmare. Nice car though 😊
I have a stage one 330d 2008 and normally leave a 330e behind me but looking at this wont not beat a stage 1 330e
50 MPG car for 50K with a 0-60 MPH time of close to 4 secs is a win win in every way
@@001barca yes it really is isn't it!
My wife runs a 330e as her company car, it’s only doing 26 miles pure Electric but most town miles mean we only put petrol in monthly, previous car was 330D and honestly I have always been surprised by how economic due to our lifestyle, and how quick the 330e feels especially for A road overtake ❤
Still 330 d better
@@ujjvallal9909 That completely depends on the use case of the owner...
@@ujjvallal9909 definitely the 330e is way better than the diesel which can catch fire at any moment 😂
@@ujjvallal9909 the 330e with a tune kept up with a 340d with a tune in some tests. Real world 330d has no chance.
I love all your videos. How do you feel about sharing the top speed at the end of the 1/2 mile. I know it will vary with all the cars but it is nice to see. Thanks for all the amazing videos.
Would love to see a E9x 335i/d vs these newer cars
I honestly much prefer the BMW M340i actually

any issues tips for the batter pack? like what's the best way to charge and use
Just ordered my 330e tourer, pro pack. Cant wait
Far more interesting as a comparison than supercars. Enjoyed this!
Thank you CARWOW
Sorry but props to the 330e? quarter mile in 12.7 seconds? According to car wow drag list, BMW M6 2017, does the same time... madness!
Gotta love the Hybrid!
my 330e has been serving me well all these years. Been using it mostly for town driving 99% of the time and it doesn't disappoint!
In 2nd race, that start by racing driver SAM was epic🔥💀
M340d will no longer be on sale in the U.K. from June this year. The end of the performance diesel wagon.
Is that due to regulations?
Sad state of affairs
@@Timetraveller101more a case of Bmw U.K. choosing, as they did with taking all the 5-series diesels off sale - even though you can still buy a 5-series diesel in Europe. But yes influenced by average CO2 over all sales.
Sad, really really sad
Sound sad, but we never have M340d sale in Thailand T_T. I still waiting for it for a decade.
Nice finally some BMW’s!!!
what an excellent emergency stop, sound is brilliant and looks like it just rips your faces off
Daniel reaction to the rev was epic 😂
When Daniel said banging it, I wasn't expecting the dog 🤣🤣🤣
Matt absolutely hates losing, he usually puts himself in the fastest car 😂
Normal of matt lol
The 3 cars going over the finish line sounded like a bunch of jets!
Wow nice performance 🎉
Matt’s excuses coming out immediately, when he lost the 2nd run
Lucky that Mat Watson never jumped the start in those 3 BMW Drag races tho.
Where are the Bmw fan boyz 😂??
Right here!!!! 😂🎉
Here what's up.?
Ultra-glazing may start at any moment
They are coming

Love it
That was loads of fun!
Launch control on 330
Sport Plus: ON
Traction Control: Just click Once you should see Sport+ traction on cluster
Shifter to Sport shifting
Can be faster with no launch control. At least in my tests, I don't have draggy so I used a video recording of my spedo.
Thats how u do 330i LC....not 330e
GOODYEAR EAGLE F1's!!! Been using these tires for all of my cars! Great in the wet & Dry!!
Thoroughly enjoyed this one.
I live in Austria and therefore I speak German and I love the fact that Daniel basically says "This time I got away pretty well" and then the carwow editors just went and said I am the best at this which I think is pretty funny😂
Being fair, that 2.0 litre bmw hybrid is not slow at all. Pretty impressive really.
Love the M340i! By far my favourite out of the three!
that top gear challenge is fun. Should do more of it with the other chellenges
Yeah but not fair, the full torque in the 340i comes alive around 1800rpm and they were way below that in 6th and 8th gear.
Not the best for the engine either
More of those low rev, high gear roll races would be great, interesting to see the difference.
unpopular opinion: 1000 bucks for a preconfigured ecu map that needs 3 minutes to install is incredibly bad value.
What if you include Research and development costs?
@@semicolon101 by who?
The problem is the ECUs are locked by BMW. Pre 2020 cars are much cheaper to map
@@Carlos1180 this exactly. You either have to get a tuning box or send the ECU to Femto in Finland for a bench unlock.
If you're looking to tune, the cars built before June 2020 are the way to go. And it's important that they haven't received ECU updates after that date, else they're locked too.
It’s actually 2k…😂… ecu needs to be unlocked (1k) THEN the 2 remaps (1k). BUT in reply to your question, it’s actually a decent map (not a generic one) tailored to your car on a dyno. I’d pay 1k for it on mine but 2k is to much
i was just thinking of an m340i. perfect timing.
M340i is as good as 330e.
@@purwantiallan5089 um a 330e is a hybrid and a non-M car so I don't really follow?
@@humzahquadri yeah I have no idea what that guy is talking about. You get a stiffer chassis, an M differential and a sweet sounding 6-cylinder engine in the M340i. It's not even a debate.
M340i is not a M car. It’s a M Lite.
@@yousufhussain9899 yeah, and an M lite car is clearly different to a non-M hybrid 3-series. what are you trying to say?
Very nice. Really enjoyed it especially since I own the 330i
I've got the Hybrid, love it. Fantastic car for big cities and short daily drives.
Please do more of these last gear races... They will definately bring out some interesting outcomes with various vehicle models.
Seeing all this heated debate about the 330e, M340i, and even the M340d, I'm struck by the sheer passion we all share for BMW's engineering marvels. Whether it's tweaking the 330e for jaw-dropping performance or appreciating the M340i's balance of power and grace, it's clear we're all in this for the love of the drive.
Im a big fan of you.. I am wainting for this vdo for a long time caz im from Thailand using 330e G20 So glad you made this vdo.
PS if you can show a km as well is very best.
Damn the gear races made this video pretty cool
the 340d is the gem that we don’t get in the US😢
That’s because fuel is cheap there. You’d have to be a lunatic to buy a 340d over 340i when fuel costs are almost a non-issue.
Stage 1 340i is a monster, get the estate and its a perfect car
Or... The alpina B3 touring 😏
estate why? you got stuff haul around
@@hassyg4083probably useful for the family road trip 😂

monster. barley beat a 330e on a roll with 70 bhp more and 100k on the clock less b58s are boring too many people jumping on the bandwagon 🤣

@@funfzylinder the range is 300 miles, electric and petrol, I am showing about 40mpg - it does have a small fuel tank 45l - and the electric seems to be about 25miles. cost about £5 to fully charge the battery at a public point - cheaper at home
so depends on what driving you do - as to the fuel consumption -
as a daily its amazing, smooth - powerful - great tech and looks really good
Might be random as hell this but can we get more top-gear rolling races. Just, highest gear possible and see what it does, that was actually really fun lmao
The drag coefficient of the estate really shows
I prefer videos on cars that are more affordable. Don’t get me wrong I still can’t afford these that’s why I drive a 2008 Honda Civic.
Do like me, boring car and a fun motorcycle 😎👍🏻 way cheaper than paying for a high performance car.

As an M6 owner, I like the performance of the 330e. Especially if you consider its efficiency.
well I think the 330e is the best hybrid you can buy atm,its sporty and has quite a lot of hp for that 4 cyl,idk I love it so much

These B48`s need their rear muffler to be removed to sound good. The rear OEM muffler is made specifically so it sounds like a vacuum cleaner.
Se sherman translation is always spot on 😂
Wonderful lesson for all the kids who think torque is more important than hp. The M340i has 40hp more than the diesel but 220Nm less torque, and yet, was clearly and consistently faster. It's the hp that counts in a drag race. Torque is great for towing.

@@Manu-Official You know torque is meaningless. Only HP matters for acceleration. Especially when you consider that the torque on the wheels is the same, because of the gearbox...

I got an f11 but you should always run a diagnostic and clear all the faults. Then do a drag race, you'll see the results. It goes for all the vehicles on drag race.
Hope you take a note on this Mat
great test, Ive got a 340i and also a 340d and the 340i has averaged 34mpg with the 340d at 44mpg. When ur in the mood the 340i is best but for everyday the 340d wins....
When your in mood 340d can work too
i’ve got m3 and m4 and m5 and m6 and i get 20 mpg from them
nope, petrol R6 BMW can work about 7-8 l\100
M340i for everyday wins, that’s obvious. 340d is a dull purchase, want to get an economy/performance - buy a tesla, but when you already spend a bunch on money for 3 serious, please don’t tell us about these 10mpgs. I’ve tested 340i and 340d, on highway it’s 1-1.5l difference, diesel with shitty sound, no emotions and vibrations is so idiotic

Dms maps are written by brinda at West yorkshire tuning. He supplies most of the maps in the UK to big known tuners
Next on the list, the most recent year of M Competition models maybe? M2, M3, M4, M5, M8 would be mega!
Little detail, take a look at the push to start button on each car, BMW makes different buttons for diesel, petrol and hybrid. nice one
Try using saloons for all models next time
330i is faster than the 330e 0-60. The 330i has 258hp while the 330e has 292hp but the 330i on paper still does 0-60 in 5.2sec whereas the 330e does it in 5.4sec, probably due to it being heavier. Would have loved to see the 330i in this comparison, very underrated and sounds beautiful as well.

I got my 2023 330e and I am really happy with how it drives. The best car for my needs of a city commuter car that I can charge overnight. I rarely do a drag race but can beat 98/100 cars on lights and 99/100 on flying start. However, I need to give another try to the launch control, since it didnt work I assumed it didnt have one but I never tried to add the switched off traction control to the mix.
True the 330e is an amazing car to drive. A few weeks ago I won a drag race from an megane rs
Matt, How about this race : Drag race diesel vs petrol with both limited to 2500 / 3000 RPM?
You have to shift up at 2500 / 3000 RPM in each gear. Then see which one is faster? (Of course it'll be the diesel :) )
Also show fuel consumption, diesel would win
What's the fucking point of thar? 😅😅😅
you are a litte bit crazy, arent you?
