Great handling car

Overall, I am impressed with my first BMW. The drivability of the car is exactly what I expected. It is quick and confidence-inspiring. The hybrid integration is much better than I expected. I seldom notice moving from the battery to the engine, as the transition is smooth. I notice a power difference when on the battery, as it seems to hold the car back. After driving many "T" brand cars, I hoped for immediate torque during acceleration but found it tame, noticeably different than when under ICE power. I appreciate the 20 miles+ range on battery only and am amazed how the BMW powertrain management system when in Hybrid ECO, can offer good performance, regenerate the battery when under ICE and coasting, and extend one take of gas beyond 500 miles. My only complaint is when the stereo is at full power, and then the screen is touched, a noticeable reduction in music happens. I expected a better integration of the software, and that is the only reason I deducted one star.

Owned for 3-mos & Still in Love

Purchased my 2022 330i X- Drive in October 2021. This is my 1st BMW and it’s just amazing. It drives and handles just amazingly and has been reliable. Gas mileage has been high 20’s in the city and low to mid 30’s on the highway. The pythonic blue paint looks incredible and the car get looks everywhere I go. The comfort of the seats is just incredible. I was concerned about power going to a turbo 41cyl from a twin turbo 6 in my last SUV (that had over 400hp) and It’s never at a loss for power. Overall it was a great decision buying this car and I would go it again in a heartbeat!

After one year of Ownership, Still Loving it

This is my first BMW, and it doesn't disappoint! It has a great drive, it is quiet, responsive handling and smooth. There are many controls and it comes with everything you could want. I added the phone charging tray station, and I am happy that I did. My only complaint is my trunk space is smaller than my last car - an Acura. Great gas milage with the hybrid. Loving it!

Best bang for your buck at price point

If you can get this car at a good price you are getting an absolute steal! I got lucky with mine and got a spec’d out 2023 rwd M340i for a great price and I absolutely love every minute of it, it’s been around 4 months since I first received it and it truly never gets old, the power, luxury, drive quality, and technology along with great mpg all come together to make the greatest modern BMW daily ever made in my opinion. I can’t recommend this car enough.it has turned all my Mercedes and Audi friends into bmw enthusiasts just from one drive in it. Truly a game changer.

330e Delight

I had this car built full spec. A pure joy to drive. Very quiet in both electric and ICE mode. Purchased 11/6/22. My commute is 13 miles one way and I'm able to charge at both ends. After 30 days I pumped in 7.9 gallons ($32) and used 222 KWH @ .15 per kilowatt ($33.30). I canceled a I4 order and went this direction and not looking back. Between Fed and State rebate= $9500. I4 not eligible. Safe driving and ask Santa for this ride. You won't regret it.
