The U.S. will also no longer have the 328d Sports Wagon.
According to Cars Direct, the next-generation 2019 BMW 3 Series sedan is expected to go on sale in the United States during the first half of 2019. It will be available at American dealers concurrently with the existing 3Series Sports Wagon, and Gran Turismo.
In November 2018, the new 330i and 335i xDrive four-doors went into production. According to Autos Direct production of the performance-focused M340i is expected to begin in April 2019.
The 328d Sports Wagon will be withdrawn from the U.S. market for the 2019 model year. According to Autos Direct, production will cease in December.
The next-gen 3 Series appears very similar to the current model, according to spy shots. BMW has made significant improvements to the front, where it installed redesigned headlights as well as a larger grille. Although the exterior looks the same, the CLAR platform allows for lighter weight and greater rigidity.
BMW makes more substantial interior changes. It installs a new digital panel and an infotainment screen next to it. It is possible to get more advanced driver assistance tech.
An earlier leak indicated that the M340i would produce 375 horsepower (279 kilowatts). This is a significant upgrade from the M340i’s 320 HP (239 kW). The new 330i will have 261 horsepower (195 kW) instead of 248 horsepower (185 kW). Europeans will have the option to choose from several diesel powerplants. BMW will soon offer iPerformance Hybrids, which will be available in the American lineup. The M3 will be the flagship model.
According to earlier rumors, the next-gen 3 Series will debut at the Paris Motor Show (October). Paris would be the perfect place to unveil the next-gen 3 Series if production actually begins in November.
