ABOUT THE 2024 BMW 330E XDRIVE SEDAN

This is the 2024 BMW 330e xDrive, the all-wheel-drive plug-in hybrid version of the G20 3 Series saloon. Its 2.0-litre turbocharged four-cylinder and an electric motor integrated into the eight-speed automatic combine for 288 hp and 310 lb-ft (420 Nm), and BMW’s xDrive system splits torque between the axles as conditions require.

Why choose xDrive

The extra driveline hardware adds some weight and trims the electric range slightly compared with the rear-drive 330e. In return it offers better traction in rain and snow, which makes it the natural choice for buyers in colder regions. Our drivetrain guide explains the differences.

The facelifted G20

The 3 Series was updated for the 2023 model year, so the 2024 car has the newer cabin with BMW’s wide Curved Display and a reduced number of physical buttons, plus restyled lights and bumpers. Electric driving is limited to short commutes, but the petrol engine takes over seamlessly for longer trips.

Things to know

The high-voltage battery sits beneath the rear seat and reduces boot space against a regular 330i, and fuel capacity is also lower. Owners who rarely plug in will see little efficiency benefit. Check that the charging cable is present and that the car charges correctly when buying used.

Rivals

It competed with the Volvo S60 Recharge plug-in hybrid and with all-wheel-drive petrol saloons such as the Audi A4 quattro and Mercedes-Benz C 300 4MATIC.
