Specifications
From year to year, the Bavarian supplier practically does not change the performance characteristics of its new proposals. In most cases, the same base is used, but it changes somewhat. The new 2018 BMW 3 Series model (photo and price are given in this review) is built on the same base as before. The highlights of the offer are as follows:
- The used chassis was sorted out, due to which the sedan was given slightly different qualities.
- The basic version provides for the installation of a 1.5-liter power unit. An important point is that the design is three-cylinder, due to the installation of a turbine, the power was increased to 136 hp. A similar power unit is also installed on the Mini Cooper. The tests carried out indicate that it takes only 8.9 seconds to overclock.
- The most powerful version is represented by a turbocharged design with a volume of 3 liters, the power is 326 hp.
- We also note the moment that the installed transmissions were subjected to significant modernization. There is a version of a manual box on sale, but it received the function of speed synchronization in low gears. In addition, the sedan is equipped with the previously known 8-automatic transmission. Due to the reconfiguration of the machine, it began to work much more stable.
It is possible to purchase a version with all-wheel drive, which is equipped with a special traction distribution system. Due to this, the sedan becomes more stable.

Controllability
What there are questions about is the handling of the car. True, this only applies to the sports steering rack on rear-wheel drive models. If we are talking about rear-wheel drive and the rail is not “sporty”, then the taxiing is almost perfect. The adjustment between a sharp short and a smooth big turn of the steering wheel is excellently done.
The front axle of a rear-wheel drive car literally screws into the turn, which is good for serpentine driving and relatively quiet city driving.
The sport rake is more linear and pairs nicely with the all-wheel drive, although its harshness will take some getting used to.
If you use a sports rack and rear-wheel drive, the car starts to constantly leave the trajectory, scours and forces, while taxiing, to look for a balance between stalling into a skid and the planned turning trajectory.
Speaking of drifts. An option has appeared in the G20 – a rear differential with an electrically controlled lock, which means that fans of “handing out a corner” will be able to fully realize themselves on paved areas. The handbrake of the car is electromechanical.
