BMW 3 Series Research

When compared to previous years’ models, engineers gave the 2020 BMW 3 Series a wider stance, a more striking body, and eye-catching light signatures to emphasize the vehicle’s past while looking toward the future of design. On the front end, the 2020 BMW 3 Series also gets an updated grille, new LED headlights as a standard feature, and a larger center inlet and faux side vents for a more aggressive look.

Implied aggression in a vehicle can be beneficial when traveling on busy roads, and spirited drivers will find the 2020 BMW 3 Series’ responsive handling and peppy engines capable of talking the talk while the vehicle walks the walk. In profile, the 2020 BMW 3 Series sports a rearward stance cab, integrated trunk lip, and downturned hood that emphasizes the drive layout. To break up the vehicle’s longer body and wheelbase, designers added a character line from the rear door handle to the wraparound tail lights that goes with the standard 17-inch wheel design.

If the driver seeks a vehicle that’s fun to drive, has massive curb appeal, and handles like a dream, the 2020 BMW 3 Series will be the prize at the end of the rainbow. The vehicle offers a balanced sports sedan driving experience with few competitive rivals on the market. But you don’t need to take our word for it.
