2014 BMW 3 Series
The BMW 3 Series has long been the most sporting entry-luxury sedan, but the latest version has been diluted somewhat by an attempt to broaden its base.

New For 2014

The 3 Series adds the Gran Turismo body style and a new four-cylinder diesel to the burgeoning lineup. The Gran Turismo is a sloped-roof four-door hatchback in the vein of the 5 Series Gran Turismo. It comes only as a 328i or a 335i, both with standard xDrive. The new diesel, in the 328d, is a 2.0-liter four-cylinder unit rated at 180 hp and 280 lb-ft of torque. It is paired only with the eight-speed automatic transmission. The 328d can be had as a rear-wheel-drive sedan, an all-wheel-drive sedan, or an all-wheel-drive wagon. Fuel economy is spectacular: the rear-wheel-drive sedan gets 32 mpg city and 45 mpg highway; all-wheel drive subtracts 1 mpg city and 2 highway mpg from those figures.
