335d
Seems to be coming in the summer according to the bimmerpost homepage.
Called the 335d rather than 340d with 313 engine. Xdrive and seems to only mention being for the F30 but perhaps the F31 comes a little later. How do we find out the 0-60 for this model? |

An extrapolated guess:0-62 mph in 4.9 secs.

313bhp, 630nm of torque, brutal. But a heavy machine nevertheless. I think F30s figure will be spot on plus I am guessing about a £1500 premium over 335i. Worth it? I am still tempted by the 335i.

It was always going to be in the plan but someone I spoke to reckoned it would be aligned with the 4 Series release as it was when the E92 became available than it arrived in the E90.
Whether it is needed is another question as the 330d is already a pretty decent engine but if there is a 335d available then thats the one some people ( me included !! ) would want. |

So who's cancelling their 330D orders and "upgrading" to a 335D???

4.8 secs ......... pretty phenominal stuff there. Has to encroach badly on the M3 or maybe it is going to be significantly faster than the current model too.

From what I saw on the configurator, the spec is the same.

With the advent of the most probably overpriced 335d xDrive (no sDrive it seems), the 330d sDrive is now the real sweet spot in the F30 range.
RWD rules, in my very humble opinion (IMVHO).

4.8s to 60, bloody hell mullers the 330d and even just beats the M-lite on paper*
*road rest reviews are getting 4.5 a 4.6s 0-60 though

Yes it will cost more but will also be worth more come resale time, no one really knows what that differential is but in the current model a 335d is worth consdierably more than a 330d.
