Hello car people. Today's car review is of a 2020 BMW 330e powered by a 2.0L turbocharged I4 and a BMW eDrive synchronous electric motor, 7.6 kWh lithium-ion battery (249 hp, 310 lb-ft) with an 8-speed automatic transmission.
Video was filmed on - October 9th, 2020

The most informative 330e video I've watched & I've watched them all. Good job.
Thanks so much for your support
Maybe, but he forgets to mention he has thousands of dollars of options on this car. Mine is pretty basic and won't do half the things he points out
The blue accents in the headlights are not specific to the 330e, they are specific to the laser light headlight option. Non-hybrid G20's/G21's have them too if you choose that option. I know this because I have a non-hybrid G20 (330i) with that option, it's explained like this on the BMW website configurator and in the brochure plus the dealer explained it to me like that as well. Other than that minor detail, nice overview, thank you for making it!
Nice video, it was very informative, thanks! I'm gettin the same car in September.
One feature worth mentioning is that the number buttons on the radio are not only for radio stations, but can be used as adjustable shortcuts like setting your navigation system to "Home" e.g.
Best wishes!
very detailed review! not many people take time to pay this much attention
I love the new G20! I always thought the F30 3 Series was super boring and not interesting at all.
Glad you like it!
Thanks very much. It gave me a much better idea of the features of the car inside and out.
Glad to have been able to help out
I bought the Sports M model of this car. I get it tomorrow and i will drive it for the first time. Got a good deal on it and I cannot believe that my first car is going to be a bmw 330e haha.
Are you satisfied? i am considering buying one
@@garry7758 I am super satisfied man, here is what I like about it:
- it is super steady on 200km/h on the highway, in germany we have unlimited speed and the car is so stable and it even corrects it's lane often if you urge right or left from your lane.
- The park assistant is perfect, so you really don't need a 3rd camera view if you don't want to add couple of bucks for it, the car still can park itself with sensors only.
- The trunk is still considered huge for me even with the battery under it. You can still pusht the back chairs and put a bike there.
- The M line 2 front chairs are epic, you get back adjustment and so much cool stuff.
- What I like also is that for 40L you can get to 500KM and that costs me exactly 80 to 86 euros. + when you charge it fully for 41 to 45km range. You usually do 1/3 of the way electric. Which means you will add up 100 to 200 kms range on top of that 500km with full charge.
- It is also spacy your friends will enjoy the view
- please get the headsup display. It changes everything, you only see ahead and everything is in front of you.
Hope this helps.
One fan fact about this car in germany, when you run throu the highway in high speed, all the bmw cars will follow you and you create a stream of sports cars. that's the good feeling about it from first day.
@@RodnDjokYTB you made me want to get it even more😍 i will update you!
@@garry7758 Perfect man, I will update you.
One more thing please make sure to repaint it, Alpinewhite 3 is the worst color in term of rarity so you will never be able to forgive yourself if you dent it or scratch it + it will cost you so much to buy sprayers and painters each time.
Will be looking for you to buy it, enjoy
@RodnDjokYTB what about high voltage batter ? Life long guarantee or after warranty replacement cost around 10k ? If you save 100 per month 10 years 10200 then what's the point of phev ?
very good review man, you talked about the exact details that I wanted to know. does the car always start in pure electric mode?
Thanks for your support! Yes, hybrid cars always start out in EV mode, but the gas engine will kick in at some point when accelerating
The G20 3 Series has come a long way from my own E90. Not keen on the digital instrumentation though.
That's very true. I kinda like the digital instrumentation if I'm being completely honest
@@lukasautomotiveawesomeness1536 I think that is a generational thing. I am much older than you, and a conservative traditionalist.
That’s wrong Information. I owe the F30 330e 2016 model!
I said that the G20 330e wasn't available until 2020. There may have been an F30 330e but this video was focused more on the G20
Hi there, thanks a lot for the review! Was very enlightening!
I'm thinking about buying a 330e from 2020~2021, and was wondering if it is normal to have only ~30km full eletric range with just over 17.000km?
I thought they were supposed hit a bit over 40km range.
Yes, the range thing is normal. Generally the electric range on such cars is lower than the manufacturer claim
Nice,Greetings from Malaysia
Thanks for the vid, looking at this model for a quick commuter for me (work round trip is 15 miles per day), but also hauler for long distance vacations. With the ~100 mpge combined, can the car go almost 1000 miles when fully changed and with a full tank of gas? (Hybrid mode)
I don't know if the 100 mpg stat is actually true, but if it is, it probably could. Glad you liked the review, but I would suggest getting a non hybrid vehicle if you want something to go on long distance vacations with
The maximum distance on one tank and charge is somewhere between 400 and 450 miles.
Guys one doubt on luxary phev like bmw benz lexus and audi too.. are there high voltage battery cost to replace after 8 years of warranty incase for example 10k euros or 12k dollars. Or 9k pounds. If you save fuel on luxary brands monthly 100 10 years 10200. Then whats the point of phev on luxury? Battery is batter at one point you should replace. After warranty is ticking time bomb unlike petrol or deisel engines which are relaible. Otherhand same timming chain or combustion engine servivimg costs also same in phev
Top speed is 240, not 225. We done 240 with our stock 330e
the blue in the headlights is not specific for 330e...? Isnt it the laserlights..?
Yes, the blue in the headlights is specific for the 330e
You are correct, it designates the laser headlights, it is not specific to the 330e. Non-hybrid BMW's have that too if you choose the laser light option, like my car does
F series had a 330e as well...
09:00 you completely ignored the coolest option, screen mirroring!
I missed a handful of things on the car, but as the description says, this review was very sloppy because at the time I filmed this video, I hadn't filmed a car review in three months. Plus, I was under time pressure to get the video done before it got too dark. If I had more time, I probably would have showed the screen mirroring feature
Is all this features standard or extra options
Random question…are you able to provide me with the part #s to the fog lights? I have a 330i with the same style bumper with that style fog inserts and for whatever reason they don’t sell the vehicle with those fog lights here in the US. I have the part #s for the open fog lamp inserts just need the part # to the actual fog lights. Thanks!
Unfortunately not as I'm not a car parts salesperson
stuff like that
Is there a way for the car to not turn off the engine when I open the door?
No, your foot needs to be on the brake if it's in EV mode, if the engine is running, it won't shut off
WTF is the start up!
You’re a switch handed
I take that 1971 BMW over all of this new over-engineered junk the Germans are putting out now.
I’m not impressed with a non-belt driven electric plastic water pumps bolted to the engine with magnesium screws, lack of dipstick tubes, or any of that plastic residing in an extremely hot engine bay.
This is a car that you lease, and turn in after 3 years. I see it as nothing more, than a disaster waiting to happen, on wheels.
This car was, in fact, also a lease. It's highly recommended to lease new BMWs and Mercedes for the exact reasons you mentioned. I myself would never buy one of these cars
Why don't you use a piece of paper with scotch tape to cover up the licence plates instead?
Normally I would do that, but I actually forgot to do that this time, so doing what I did this video was my only other option
@@lukasautomotiveawesomeness1536 OK. I see. Thanks for the reply.
Why cover the plates at all? No good purpose.
@@californiaschoolbusdriver8532 I do it to protect the owner's personal information. Covering the plates is for a good purpose
@@californiaschoolbusdriver8532 Maybe for privacy reasons?
What is the point of showing if you’re going to black out what you’re showing, seriously!🤦🏻♂️
It was just the license plate and the navigation map since this was filmed at the owner's house and I didn't want to give away his address. It's called data protection!
