BMW has launched the 3 Series Gran Limousine in India and it is basically a 3 Series with an extended wheelbase.

The most important number for the 3 Series Gran Limousine is the extra 110 millimetres of wheelbase being added. That increases the length to 4,819 millimetres and the 2,961-millimetre wheelbase makes it the longest wheelbase in its class and the one with the most space. There are two engine options as the range starts with a two-litre four-cylinder petrol engine with the BMW 330Li and that has an output of 258 hp and maximum torque of 400 Nm. Then there is also a two-litre four-cylinder diesel engine with the BMW 320Ld which produces an output of 190 hp and a maximum torque of 400 Nm. Standard is an 8-speed automatic.

BMW 3 Series Gran Limousine First Impressison Review

The 3 Series Gran Limousine is best sampled from the rear seat as the extra space is best felt there. The legroom plus headroom is simply more than any other car in its class. The seats are also more comfortable than the standard 3 Series which means that it is easy to stretch your legs. The car though is best used as a four seater since it has a large transmission tunnel.

Up front the car gets small changes in the wood finish plus appearance while the dashboard is typical BMW 3 Series and we are not complaining. Quality is brilliant as expected. Also a big change from the standard 3 Series is the ride quality since the suspension is softer and that makes for a comfortable experience. Most 3 Series owners would be driven and that is where the better ride quality and the softer suspension does help.
