It's down to "weight". The 3 series touring is 250Kg lighter even with less torque and BHP, it's more frugal and quicker.
I think adding the 4 wheel drive to the 3 series and 335D engine will equal out it's performance with the two wheel drive models using the 330D engine IMO.
Actually if you check for tech specs:

335ixDrive A (5.0s)
535ixDrive A (5.8s)
535dxDrive A (5.5s)

so 335dxDrive A -model should go below 5.0s and should be much faster than 330d!!!
