Solid and capable luxury sport sedan

The 2024 BMW 330 is the entry-level offering in the BMW 3-series, but this compact luxury car is anything but basic. With strong performance from the turbocharged engine, you’ll love getting behind the wheel and exploring the world. This five-seater has ample room for passengers and cargo, including your most precious cargo. You can fit a large, rear-facing car seat in the back, with easily accessible anchors to keep the seat in place. Whether you’re on family taxi duty, the daily commute, or a much-needed getaway, the BMW 330 can get you where you want to go.

5 reasons to buy the 2024 BMW 330

1. Strong performance 

Looking for a car that’s fun and easy to drive? Check out the 2024 BMW 330. The turbocharged four-cylinder engine is strong and responsive, making 255 hp and 294 lb-ft of torque. The rear-wheel-drive model can go from zero to 60 mph in just 5.6 seconds (according to the manufacturer, when new)—pretty quick for a small luxury sedan. The braking is confident yet easy to control, and the car is agile around turns. Whatever kind of driving you’re doing, the BMW 330 is up to the task. 

2. Good fuel economy 

You might not expect good gas mileage from a car that delivers such strong performance, but the BMW 330 aims to please. The 2024 BMW 330 with the 2.0L four-cylinder engine and rear-wheel drive gets an EPA-estimated 29 mpg combined.

And with a 15.6-gallon gas tank, you can put down some serious miles on the open road before you have to press pause. Family road trips, girlfriend getaways, and guys’ weekends just got a lot more fun. 

3. Ample cargo space 

The 2024 BMW 330 is technically a compact car, but that doesn’t mean you can’t pack it up for a long weekend away. You’ll get 16.9 cu-ft of cargo space—enough for about six carry-on suitcases for you and your crew. And since the power-operated deck lid hinges are shrouded, you don’t have to worry about your belongings getting crushed when the lid comes down. If you’re planning a getaway for two, just fold down the 40/20/40 rear seats to create more cargo space. 

4. User-friendly tech 

If you’re looking for a tech-first luxury sedan, the 2024 BMW 330 is an excellent choice. Not only do the digital 12.3-inch driver information gauge and 14.9-inch infotainment display look great—they’re combined in a single curved panel that floats on top of the dashboard—but they’re also incredibly intuitive. In addition to the sleek touchscreen, you’ll get an in-dash navigation system, SiriusXM® Radio, an available Wi-Fi hotspot, and standard wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto integration to keep you connected with your preferred device.

5. Upscale interior 

You expect premium touches from a luxury car, and the 2024 BMW 330 delivers. The standard sports seats are adjustable and supportive, so your passengers can kick back and relax. You’ll love the modern design, with vibrant interior colors like Cognac or Tacora Red for maximum style. The cabin is whisper quiet at highway speeds, and the standard moonroof lets the sun shine in for total tranquility. Look for a model with available multicolor adjustable ambient lighting and heated front and rear seats to experience the ultimate luxury in your BMW 330.
