Stop removing buttons and dials!
Mercedes started this dumb trend and all the other manufacturers followed like dumb sheeps
Blame Mercedes
Matt, totally agree! This is the ONLY car you will ever need. Ticks every box! Every one! Design, quality, looks, practicality, dynamics, size...well as you say 'perfect in every way'. Thank You... That said M3 Touring!! Stay safe.
Hi Keith, an M340i Touring or the M3 Touring would be my dream every day car!
@@SytnerTV I was going to ask which version, thanks for reading my mind. The 320d, would be fine, but diesel prices down here in OZ are getting ridiculous atm. I have a feeling the M340i Xdrive, with the mild hybrid technology is the go. Question, does the M3 Touring get the new instrument panel?
@@Saltwat5 Yes the new M3 Touring does get the new instrument panel, it is also being rolled out onto the rest of the M3/M4 range too.
"One door in the front, one in back,".... very informative review 🙂
I enjoyed watching the Video. The updates look great and I particularly like the Red Paint Colour
Agreed 👍🏼
I'm saddened to see the iDrive version 8 remove so many buttons, especially heating and ventilation. That single thing will stop me from buying any modern car. I hope it doesn't appear on the 2 series but I suspect it will (and might have already)
agree, its a dealbreaker.
have you even tried it? its really not that bad and gets rid of all those ugly buttons
@@deluxebulls5939 and you get even more ugly and annoying fingerprints :D
@@deluxebulls5939 I have it on my gti clubsport and not a fan, it's actually quite dangerous. This is soon to be my next car and although touch screen is not ideal it won't be a deal breaker
@@davidbrady1551 I personally really enjoy it. I had it on a glb and now an e tron and couldn’t go back to regular buttons. They look so dated to me.
Cool! The tourer version of the g20 Lci is popular in the UK!
How is the melbourne red in real? Can‘t decide between this one and the alpine white
It looks great in the flesh, however I would say that it is one of those rare cars that looks good in any colour.
I just dont know why BMW did it soo soon. G21 series is only two years old.
It took them 5 years to facelift 5 series (G30/31). But they upgraded 3 series in only two years.
Love it!!
Coming from our biggest fan that means a lot! 😜
Looks brilliant but then with BMW's that means you need deeper pockets to carry all the cash about in they will be asking for and my pockets are pretty lean these days having just serviced and MOT'd my own Fiesta Active.
Idrive 8 ? someone has sat on your TV, it looks like an afterthought, totally ruined the rear, and the front headlights look strange without the notch. Too many buttons removed. Would pay more for pre facelift 😢
Great disegn, great grill. But the instrument panel... What happens with Bmw?...
It is just following the trend, it is the way the industry is going.
3 series touring would be the ultimate daily if the 5 series touring didn't exist.
How many kilos does the hybrid plug-in run?
About 1900, I am getting a 320e touring M-sport in January as my company car so I’m curious to see how she’ll be compared to 330e! (330e had way longer waiting times)
Ordered one in Portimao Blue, cant wait.
Great choice 👍🏼
How much is this
Wish I could get one in the US 😢
What are the chances we will get M340i wagon?
It’s out 👍🏼
You mean in the US? Not a chance, BMW def. screwed us there...anytime I see the Touring I get upset.
when are these available to buy in the UK?
They are available now 👍🏼
@@SytnerTV Thanks, still unsure whether to get the new C200 AMG Line estate or a 320i M Sport in the face-lift.
@@rosse6705 depends on what you look for in a car and how you prefer it to drive. Imho, after driven the new C class and the 3 series, i would definitely choose the 3 series. Mercedes really messed up the latest iteration of the C class, many things that will annoy you over time for sure.
@@bighit20100 my last 3 cars have been Mercedes and I've never had issues with any of them to be honest. I'm not after anything quick this time I just want something comfortable to drive and practical which I think the new C and 3 series both are. I specced the 320i with M Sport package and the C Class as AMG Line Premium and got quotes off BMW & Mercedes and the 3 series turned out to be £180 a month more which I'm not willing to pay as its not that much better if better at all. You could actually argue the C Class technology is more advanced and the ride in terms of comfort is pretty similar. The only place I think the 3 stands out more is that it's more agressive looking and the materials in the cabin feel more premium but it's defitniely not an extra £180 a month better. BMW are asking for nearly £600 a month just for a 320i M Sport. God knows what they want for a 330 or a 340 😂
@@rosse6705 hmm in my experience its the exact opposite. The C class with AMG package (which includes sport suspension) was a horrible ride. It literally bounced of a speed bump, felt almost like my seat was going to go off the rails… and then when the car came down it was super bouncy as if i was on a trampoline… then the steering felt very artificial and very light… then i had issues with the automatic high-beam assistant, it kept turning on and off every every 5 to 10 seconds, basically blinding people in front of me… i then saw an EQE the other day at night, which had the exact same problem… so Mercedes need to seriously patch that…
The interior of the C class started to annoy me after a day of driving and it made it extra annoying the second day i drove it. For example the glovebox compartment opens only half way if there is a passenger sitting, because the legs obstruct it, the door arm rests are far to narrow near the elbows, making you to lean forward with you arm to get a comfortable spot, which ruins your body posture and will give you shoulder and back pain in the long run…
Then not to mention the windshield wipers… in the Merc they spray the water straight on your windshield which will blind you for a second or two while you are driving, but the BMW they spray it from the wipers straight on the glass while wiping, so you never get obstructed vision during driving.
Then lets mention the centre console screen of the merc, which is angled and tilted towards the driver but the dual zone aircon controls are on it… so if the passenger wants to adjust their aircon zone they have a very awkward position towards the screen, sometimes making it hard to see the screen correctly (especially in sunny days) because of the awkward tilt and angle…
They couldve just put the screen straight, there is no need to angle and tilt it… i dont get why they did that…
Also the merc has cheap hard plastic on parts of the interior where the BMW have more premium materials.
In my opinion, after having driven different mercs for almost 10 years and this new C class, the G20 3 series is the better car. It feels more premium, its better thought out, the tech is arguably better (especially with iDrive 8) and the drive feel is miles better.
My only recommendation if you want a comfy ride, take the adaptive suspension on the 3 series. The base suspension is really comfortable too but avoid the sport suspension, its too firm. And absolutely avoid the sport suspension on the Merc!
I would say, try the 3 series with adaptive suspension and 18” wheels. It will be really comfortable, and the best part is, you can firm it up on-demand if you want.
In my market, a fully optioned 3 series is a bit cheaper than a fully optioned C class.
Only you can decide if its worth or not to pay more for the 3 series. But i would really really recommend the drive a G20 3 series with adaptive suspension and drive in comfort mode, before you write off the 3 series…
Saw two reviews lately,not bmw but both said same thing. How dangerous cars have become by removing proper controls,spending half your time messing about with screens. Bring back buttons for everyday main functions.
nice!🔥
Air conditioning needs to be back in the dash
Why is no one talking about the fact that BMW just totally destroyed the Cockpit design by deleting the Instrument Cluster Cover???
What used to be the most Driver Center Cockpit in the Auto Industry is now replaced with a stupidly lame looking flat Interior with an unnecessarily long and ambiguous looking Infotainment Panel which feels "Naked" without a proper "Instrument Cluster Cover"...WTF???...
The 3 Series is a dynamic and athletic Sports Sedan with and aggressive Exterior Design, it is supposed to have an equally aggressive Driver centric Interior with a proper Instrument Cluster which gives you the feeling of being in a fighter jet's cockpit...but now you will feel like you are driving a lame city car with no bite...
What kind of an idiot designer gives a soft and lame Interior design language to the most aggressive and iconic Sports Sedan in the World??? Have you lost your mind BMW???
Multi-functionality in screens will change back to buttons and/or switches by customer demand in future. It's simply silly and stupid.
@Dr Weirdgloves when that screen glitches out or bugs after owning the car 5 years… you’ll be very unhappy you dont have physical switches and dials…
Ive had it in my 50k costing opel insignia the whole screen stopped working… no more dials, no more control over anything related to the screen. Lucky it had buttons for airco etc…
Why dont any of you do the drive review of the new BMW LCI? You have some kind of stupid embargo?
No embargo, just no LCI models currently registered for use on the roads, this one came straight off the transporter, had a clean and then got filmed. We will be doing a drive review as soon as we can 👍🏼
Don't like the front. The notch in the headlights of the pre-LCi that angles down through the lower grille is much better than this one. The rear looks much worse with that expanse of nasty shiny black. And the iDrive 8 is far worse than iD7. I know that BMW oft sell it as being like your mobile, but not the best comparison in that you can't use a mobile while driving. I find the iD7 distracting enough, I don't need even more functions taken away from the buttons. And why get rid of the 8 favourites buttons? And lastly, I use my gear stick quite a lot, though I'm sure not having one wouldn't be a big issue.
Hate the lights. Hate the interior sparseness
Be careful, brand new 320, 3000km and lot of unsolved suspension noise and trouble with this car. BmW Not anymore a premium brand.
I never understood why people love the touring, same as why people love black on black emo style
Needs a full length bar across the back..LQQK's boring ..the grill is Non functional????? no holes serves No Purpose. Like the Red Calipers! Not a PHEV so can not use Batt. only with choice of using gas. Interior looks very average w/ no carbon fiber nor ambient lighting. This guy presenting is Incredibly average if he thinks this is the "Last car you will ever need!
Thanks for your feedback 👍🏼 what would you say is the ‘last car you will ever need?’
@@SytnerTV his 1998 Corolla ignore the pleb - pretty sure it has a functional grill that opens and has ambient lighting too
The grill is functional. It opens when the engine need more cooling and its stays closed if not, for better aerodynamics. Also the car can get ambient lighting as well as carbon fiber trim, which are all optional since its personal taste. Do your homework before you piss on something. And stop being salty.
I love my 3-series, but that red colour is horrid.
