I'm 28 and I definitely prefer physical buttons over the modern touchscreen "solutions". It's no good telling us not to use our smartphones while we drive, but then they go and put a giant touchscreen in the car. How is that a safer solution? Great review as always Thomas.
@@autogefuehl Agree with the comments. I am also in my late 20s and definitely prefer all of essential buttons as physical buttons. The thought of having to look down to visually see if I have pressed the button or not bothers me a little bit. The new Camry nailed this concept: all essential functions are physical, one giant touch screen for application side. Just not in a sexy layout as the BMW.
Honestly changing temp on display doesn't bother me (although I agree with Thomas 100%), but the real dealbreaker is losing 1-8 button shortcuts, they are just soo usefull!
changing the temperature via a screen is fine, you only do that once every season anyway, and then leave it on auto. Things like the fan speed however are more frequently changed, so I think it would be best if those were easily accessible while the temp remains digital

Hi Autogefühl! I’m 26 and definitely prefer buttons. I have two e46 models and it’s definitely safer to just press a given button for AC or to warm your feet. Imagine doing 180 on the highway, or going through slow traffic and needing to navigate menus to toggle AC! Crazy the time you spend not looking at the road!
3er driver here. I don't like the LCI display. I will miss dashboard roof. It gives it a more intimate, more driving oriented feel. Feels way more comfortable and 'cockpitish'. This is .. meh. Uninspired. The legacy with dashboards is rich with BMW. Sad to see it end. F series in 3 or x5 f.e. had it very well captured. Pre LCI was great in building cockpit and not a 'public transport seat'.
Well done Thomas! Your reviews are always fantastic and insightful. I appreciate the comparisons between features, models, and other brands. I believe you are the best car reviewer on the Internet. The combination of your enthusiasm and humbleness is perfect. I look forward to your reviews and value your opinions. Thank you for your continued efforts! Oh, and yes, it was a nice car too 😊
Also Since replacing my worn tires this past two weeks .I went from the Bridgestone run flat to P ZERO RUN FLAT (PZ4) and the ride is smoother and more responsive
Audi pull ahead when it comes to styling and tech, but BMW offer a smoother, sportier driving experience. Both brands rank highly when it comes to safety features, but Audi has poorer reliability ratings by a margin.
I love it how Thomas uses a tape measure for the boot every other reviewer do suitcases and talk about litres I don’t know litres but I know I can easily get a tape measure and get a good idea of the space
The all touch screen approach is unfortunate. But it's probably the best built in the segment. Mercedes was on the right track when it released the side by side screen design many years ago with a thin row of climate buttons integrated nicely into the design of the dash like the W222 S Class. Now everyone has gone stupid.
A great facelift! My issue with the first version of the G20 was the indentation below the headlights. Glad to see that’s gone now in the new iteration.
I’m 27 and definitely prefer physical buttons and knobs! Also dislike the curved screen even though the graphics look better - it looks out of place to me. I think the cars from 2-5 years ago were the best mix of new and old tech - useful screens with smartphone mirroring etc but the interface still feels like a car not a phone / tablet. I guess I’m getting old 😂
Thomas is right in that it’s a question of what you want. The Merc and the Audi are going to be quieter and smoother and with more razzle dazzle the cabin. The Alfa is very high strung and visceral. But as a 2022 330i driver I can tell you that with the adaptive suspension you really get both things when you want them. The 3 can be very sedate and mature but a press of the Sport button makes it a much more aggressive, almost aggro car.
I own the 2023 and it’s a fun drive! Always. Really sturdy car. So much better than my s3 in terms of sturdy feel. I love the smaller 18 inch rims because they run so much smoother and are way more quiet. Huge trunk.. I put the bimmertech amp in so the base radio speakers run much better. It’s just a well made car!
I became a Bimmer in 2013 after 4 different Audis. Loved my former 320/520: even more my current 5er X-Drive M Sport. These M-Sport Pro exteriors look even nicer but I’m completely against these new standalone touchscreens. Should I list a minus on my 5er I’d point at the current dashboard graphics (2016 LCI 7.0 release). These graphics to me are even more appalling, not to mention we have lost those iconic handy controls so user friendly to navigate. If this screen is what we should expect in the new 2023 5er I’m glad I’ve extended the current lease contract until late 2024. Top notch review, video and audio, as usual Thomas! The most professional to watch and the 30 minutes best spent in my day.
I am 28 and I prefer buttons. whether it's an old car or new car, I need buttons, at least for climate and volume controls. the toys and settings can be in the screen.
I think you make the best reviews, very informative and especially your attention for the steering! I hate the 5 degrees left and right steering on my G20, the deadpoint or misplaced resistance you also experienced in your G20 review is really annoying. Have you heard anything from BMW themselves about that issue, because it is well known now.
I tend to disagree. I have a 2022 BMW M340i rear wheel drive and the steering in the G20 is very good. I like how on Center it has more of a relaxed feel and as you provide more input/turning towards the left or right the ratio increases, In sport mode there is more resistance and feels pretty natural and gives me a good sense of what;'s going on under the tires. As far as M-Sports suspension in my 2022 M340i at first it does feel very bumpy, however you tend to realize the more you drive it that it is firm but it is never harsh. I find it very acceptable for this type of 3-series.
I agree with you. Thomas is not a big fan of sporty rides that’s why he always says he prefers Audi’s suspension. But the electronic dampers in the G20 M sport suspension are very good for anyone who wants to feel “connnected”to the road and have a sharper response from the chassis
yeah as I said I always try to point out like "so if you prefer xyz, then you re better of with this or that vehicle; and besides that, my personal preference would be abc" so everyone can decide on his/her own after my verdict/hints
@@autogefuehl I do love your reviews and I do think you're very thorough in the details and 95% of the time I am in very much in agreement with you. Keep up the excellent job.
thanks! I prefer the dark look for cars, looks more premium than overexposed shots - just my personal preference :) It's kinda dark these days in German winter though ;-)
😲 WOW ... Thomas, this must be a new BMW bodywork design team or new design philosophy by BMW ... ❤Love the design ... BMW must be watching your reviews ... Thank you Thomas / BMW
Cons : - Seats are not the best in my G21 compare to the predecessor my A4 B9 Avant the adjustment by a wheel is better in the Audi - don`t like the new shifting leaver - the steering could be better - my OS 7 seems to be better, but the Navigation looks in OS8 a little bit better Pros: - My 318d is really quiet, better then the A4 - love the Laser Light - less piano black is nice - the overall interior quality is really good - like the real buttons
Your review is perfectly timed. I've been looking for a new car and the upgrades for the 3 series look excellent. Younger generations are used to using Alexa and Siri and touchscreens. I especially like your opinions between Audi, BMW, and Mercedes. I've been told that Audi gives a posh ride quality. Thank you for the great work all of you do at Autogefuhl!
The start of this video reminded me of the first video of yours I ever watched, the 992 Turbo S, i think you had on the same toque and it was maybe filmed in the same spot in the woods..? Anyway, I'm 47 and I really don't like having everything as one big screen. I much prefer a central drivers focused area with real dials for revs and speed etc, and then a separate screen to the right with the less important information. And the essential controls like climate and sound should always be real buttons because you don't need to take your eyes off the road to use them, it's just common sense. Anyway, I love your videos Thomas, especially of the sporty cars like this
Hey, I am 39) and I prefer the manual buttons and climate unit! (that’s why I am happy with mine 2022 A4 45 tfsi Avant) Thank you Thomas for your review! Love it! Alex
Just picked up the A4 45tfsi, I do like the 3 series as well, but now I prefer the A4 more 🤷♂️ both are amazing cars and you can’t go wrong with neither of them!
I've had my 2023 330e xDrive for a few weeks now and it's very nice. I find it strange though that the Driver Assistant Pro is unavailable in the US models unless you get the M340i. :/
I got my friends Land Rover for a ride to the market , and it is full screen , it took a while to find the air sync function on the menus !! Where is ergonomics?
Great review, but I also love when Germans speak in English. The translation and elocution and messaging is so precise. None of the filler words native speakers put in there.
Hi Thomas, at least this new model does not have that hideous Bugs Bunny grill! It looks ok and I'm sure it drives very nicely. Not a bad sedan, but nothing I would lust over.
Hi Thomas, great video as always! I had to rent a car recently where I wasn't sure if my snowboard fits in the trunk with the seats down. However I knew exactly where I could find that info 😉. Keep it up!
29, do prefer buttons and dials, but I guess I am now starting to learn how to live with the screens because... well seems like there's no choice if you want something somewhat modern.
Great review, and can’t wait to collect my 330e M Sport in the new year! I’ll let you know what I think of the climate controls and lack of gear stick, once I’ve given it a spin. Have you done a review on the BMW i4?
I hate the huge screen and being a germaphobic I still use the dial because I hate smudges and fingerprints on the screen . I am a driver and the drive is more important than having a big screen. Also the reason I switched from the C300. I hated the electronic shifter on the steering column . So I love my shifter and I drove this car and my Laser Lights are still brighter than these new LED lights .Also I love my 2021 330i loaded with parking assist and active cruise control that is still missing from the current model. So I am keeping my car and wait for the complete remodel in 2026 .It is nice ,but not my tase .Also with todays interest rates over 5% it does not make sense to buy a new car .I pay 546.00 a month and if I were to buy the 2023 330i it would cost me about $946.00 a month .
I agree with most of these comments. The traditional gear shift lever is far better than the new setup and allows the driver to manually change gears if you can’t use the steering wheel paddles, which is often the case when twirling the wheel.

looks amazing, way better than the C class.
100%% agree
The C class looks exactly the same as a CLA and pretty much every other current mercedes model
Facts
I think the C Class looks better and classier but there's no doubt that the BMW will be better build with better material and build quality.
And WAAAAAAAAAAY better than the gopher twins, M3 , M4. Still the ugliest M cars ever made.
100% still waiting for a new audi it’s been so long since they made new model

Late 20's and love the knobs. I don't mind the all screen ones though but it's easier or quicker with the knobs and who doesn't like knobs right😁
🙌🙌
I'm in my late 20's but definitely prefer the Audi's A4/A5 climate control gear knobs. Can't hate that clicking sound and the feeling of preciseness.

Probably the most successful facelift of any car I can remember.

Finally something new that doesn't look terrible
"In full HD, full screen and full length". What a timeless catch phrase 👍 Let's go! 😃

Bought one without a sport package- suspension too stiff for USA. Love it!
Still the benchmark for the perfect balance of sport and luxury.

Hi Autogefuhl, im 44,i’ve been using 3 series for 3 generation and still driving my F30, i think ac buttons is more convenient than touch screen.

Which camera do you use ?
I like how bmw have avoided putting scrolling indicators on their cars like everyone else
Yeah me too. They look so cheap and gimmicky. Definitely not needed.

The sound actuator in our 330i is probably the only thing about it I genuinely dislike, but seems like maybe BMW improved it for the LCI.
Fantastic review as always Thomas but we’re you aware some of the interior shots were a little underexposed film/photography/lighting wise?

So these modern cars just have massive screens for dashboards now. Such a lazy concept design
😲 WOW ... Thomas, this must be a new BMW bodywork design team or new design philosophy by BMW ... ❤Love the design ... BMW must be watching your reviews ... Thank you Thomas / BMW
🙌🙌
Very good job Thomas !
Cons : - Seats are not the best in my G21 compare to the predecessor my A4 B9 Avant
the adjustment by a wheel is better in the Audi
- don`t like the new shifting leaver
- the steering could be better
- my OS 7 seems to be better, but the Navigation looks in OS8 a little bit better
Pros: - My 318d is really quiet, better then the A4
- love the Laser Light
- less piano black is nice
- the overall interior quality is really good
- like the real buttons
Thanks for the feedback!
Your review is perfectly timed. I've been looking for a new car and the upgrades for the 3 series look excellent. Younger generations are used to using Alexa and Siri and touchscreens. I especially like your opinions between Audi, BMW, and Mercedes. I've been told that Audi gives a posh ride quality. Thank you for the great work all of you do at Autogefuhl!
Cheers! Please recommend 😊
Audi ride quality is nice, but only if you get an A model. The S and RS models are very firm and not comfortable at all.
Nice video! 24 and I definitely prefer the buttons than a full screen
👍👍
Nice overview. Is there any plans for the review of the PHEV one?
The start of this video reminded me of the first video of yours I ever watched, the 992 Turbo S, i think you had on the same toque and it was maybe filmed in the same spot in the woods..?
Anyway, I'm 47 and I really don't like having everything as one big screen. I much prefer a central drivers focused area with real dials for revs and speed etc, and then a separate screen to the right with the less important information. And the essential controls like climate and sound should always be real buttons because you don't need to take your eyes off the road to use them, it's just common sense.
Anyway, I love your videos Thomas, especially of the sporty cars like this
yes that might be :-)
Hey, I am 39) and I prefer the manual buttons and climate unit! (that’s why I am happy with mine 2022 A4 45 tfsi Avant)
Thank you Thomas for your review! Love it! Alex
That front headlight are the regular LED light, the adaptative has more accentuations in blue!
Where can I find 3 series and 5 series comparison?
It is coming up very soon, I decided to launch this one first :) thanks for asking!
Is that Audi's grill in the below section??
Truly amazing! Love it!!!!
Fab review. Thank you.
Cheers 🙏
Just picked up the A4 45tfsi, I do like the 3 series as well, but now I prefer the A4 more 🤷♂️ both are amazing cars and you can’t go wrong with neither of them!
I do hate that Audi doesn’t color match the mmi car color to the real one… 🤦♂️ such an easy fix
Enjoy!
I've had my 2023 330e xDrive for a few weeks now and it's very nice. I find it strange though that the Driver Assistant Pro is unavailable in the US models unless you get the M340i. :/
I got my friends Land Rover for a ride to the market , and it is full screen , it took a while to find the air sync function on the menus !!
Where is ergonomics?
It looks extraordinary 😮
Great review, but I also love when Germans speak in English. The translation and elocution and messaging is so precise. None of the filler words native speakers put in there.
Love your video and the car looks nice!
cheers keep tuning in !
shiny black interior surfaces always get tons of micro scratches, i can't imagine how bad it will be on the front bumper....
Hi Thomas, at least this new model does not have that hideous Bugs Bunny grill! It looks ok and I'm sure it drives very nicely. Not a bad sedan, but nothing I would lust over.
😅
Hi Thomas, great video as always! I had to rent a car recently where I wasn't sure if my snowboard fits in the trunk with the seats down. However I knew exactly where I could find that info 😉. Keep it up!
👍😎
do i need any package for this traffic light indicatior? or does it come standard?
nice video can i get full 4k wallpaper of this one
29, do prefer buttons and dials, but I guess I am now starting to learn how to live with the screens because... well seems like there's no choice if you want something somewhat modern.
Great review, and can’t wait to collect my 330e M Sport in the new year! I’ll let you know what I think of the climate controls and lack of gear stick, once I’ve given it a spin. Have you done a review on the BMW i4?
thanks keep tuning in and recommend us :-)
yes of course: th-cam.com/video/Hl1O7vik5Sk/w-d-xo.html
Nice review. Those digital instruments they all look the same… but overall I like that car.
I hate the huge screen and being a germaphobic I still use the dial because I hate smudges and fingerprints on the screen . I am a driver and the drive is more important than having a big screen. Also the reason I switched from the C300. I hated the electronic shifter on the steering column . So I love my shifter and I drove this car and my Laser Lights are still brighter than these new LED lights .Also I love my 2021 330i loaded with parking assist and active cruise control that is still missing from the current model. So I am keeping my car and wait for the complete remodel in 2026 .It is nice ,but not my tase .Also with todays interest rates over 5% it does not make sense to buy a new car .I pay 546.00 a month and if I were to buy the 2023 330i it would cost me about $946.00 a month .
Thanks for the feedback!
I agree with most of these comments. The traditional gear shift lever is far better than the new setup and allows the driver to manually change gears if you can’t use the steering wheel paddles, which is often the case when twirling the wheel.
Great review! Is the engine still 258 HP? I thought it was dropped to 245 in the restyling.
245 for EU indeed
Cheers!
Ah, that front end looks so much better than the M2, M3 and M4.
Im 62 and the 330i overall in maxxed out base model is impressive! (U.S. version)
The grill is...beautiful!
I am 29, own a 2020 330i, much prefer the buttons. I love tech, but climate control buttons are essential.
🤗
Velbert/Ratingen sofort erkannt. Schöne Ecke❤
Seems my BMW days are over.
I constantly use the 8 preset Buttons and they removed it. Great Job you Saubazis :-/
Thank you for sharing this information
It looks so good, especially I'm that red colour😍
Does the engine of the new 330i have mild hybrid technology or not?
I still like more the Alfa Romeo Giulia!! 🍀
330i with 2 liters/4 cylinders? which models have 3l/6c?
I orded a 330i G20 LCI but BMW told me that the adaptive m suspension is not available atm should I wait for that?
Hello the link 330i vs 540i please. Thank you
Coming up!
