  • Is the BMW 330e all the car you’d ever need? Given this plug-in hybrid mixes electrified efficiency and BMW handling into a practical mid-sized saloon body, we think it might just be. What makes it even more appealing is how this 100mpg-plus-capable saloon can be had for well under £20,000. Now that’s tempting... During a recent trip to the Highlands of Scotland, we put BMW's F30-generation 330e to the test.

    Sometimes reviewers on YT just know how to present properly and don't drag the review. You've nailed it so you have a new sub. Keep doing what you're doing. I'd like to see you review the 435D.. 👆

    Note this is the larger battery. The 2018 model is the 7 kWh battery. Which will get you a massive 12-15 miles on electric.

    The problem with those PHEVs is that for the amount of range you're getting it should only take up to 30 mins to recharge the car. As an audi a3 etron owner I gave up charging it in public places of I'm only going for a quick shopping because it will gave me mabye 3 miles from empty.

    Hey. I will buy an F30. 330th 2016 M IPerformance. Does the car always have 252 ps or 272 as standard? or 184ps. What driving mode do you use forever the same ps ... please info. I read when the electricity is empty “battery” Ps 184 is alone ?

    Could someone please tell me how you got 100+ MPG because I have owned a 330e for a year now a newer one than in this vid, the best I get is 42 MPG and that is charging every night and driving like miss Daisy,
    The quoted MPG Must have been whilst being towed.!!!!
    I would love you to tell me how to acheive your Claim.... Please prove it Cinch

    • @cinch
      @cinch  2 года назад +1

      Hi Gaz, it all depends on your journey time and speed. If you're moving through city traffic for the majority of your drive (as we had before we arrived in the countryside), the engine only wakes during higher speed moments. Hence the three-figure mpg. Sam did say earlier in the video that 30-40mpg is more likely during longer journeys though, so your experience is not unusual :)

      It's never the reviewer or BMWs claim - it's the regulated standardised test used for comparison...
      If you drive gently on journeys that maintain some charge i.e. 15-30 mile journeys - you'll get high double/triple digits - if you head straight to fast motorway/a/b-road and drive 40 mi plus - you won't... if you fully deplete the battery on a longer run you'll be 30-40 ish depending on your speed (comprable to a 320i/330i - in a cruise identical), accelerating lots - you're carrying extra weight, gently accel and deccel - like a hybrid (Toyota/Lexus) - you'll have some regen offset the accel and should do 10-20% better than a 320/330i

      I'm driving about 30 to 35 miles every day. I plug my 330e in every night and wake up, repeat. It is more boring than it sounds and me thanks it could have an equivalent to solitary in prison. I bought the car a year ago and without ever missing a day yet I have put a total of 18.4 gallons of gasoline in the car. When I bought it off the lot it had a full tank. That's a 10 gallon tank and at the moment it has a full reading on the tank. So that's 30 gallons divided by 361 (almost a year) x 35. = MPG. Of course I'm headed to my shop now so goodluck with the math!

      Where's the evidence for that? Usual scare-mongering - why aren't you worried about an autogearbox, timing chain, turbo, high-pressure fuel pump. Toyota Hybrids do 200-300k miles on standard batteries... EVs/PHEVs it's more a case of losing some charge after a number of years - but it'll still work.

Yes, the older generations were proper tanks, but since the 2008 crisis, there have been cuts, and the reliability of the cars went down the toilet. They are nice and luxurious, but that's all, and they are not for the average Joe, that's for sure.
