The BMW 3 Series will go electric globally for the first time, offering around 500 miles of range and reinterpreting design cues from the brand’s back catalogue.
It promises to be the keen driver’s choice, thanks to BMW’s new ‘Heart of Joy’ computer, which unites all of the car’s key systems onto one chip. This, it claims, will bring tangible benefits to stability, agility and comfort, matching those of the petrol-engined 3 Series.
