2021 BMW 330i xDrive Vs. 2021 Volvo S60 T5 R-Design
The 2021 BMW 330i epitomizes what a modern four-door sports sedan should be. It is a perfect blend of comprehensive performance and unique sophistication. The 330i offers two fantastic engine choices, a four-cylinder that produces 255 horsepower or a straight six that pushes out 385 horsepower. Either way, you are sure to have a smile on your face. BMW is also offering a plug-in hybrid model as well for those who want to experience electric power. A beautifully engineered eight-speed automatic fills the gap where a manual once was. The chassis can handle pretty much anything you through at it and can shift from one driving style to another in a heartbeat. The 330i is still king in the entry-level premium sedan segment with an interior that matches its eye-catching exterior.
At Edmonton BMW, we want to show residents of Edmonton, St. Albert, Sherwood Park, Beaumont, Leduc, Spruce Grove, Devon, Stony Plain, and Fort Saskatchewan exactly what the 3 Series is capable of. So please build your own BMW at Edmonton BMW and experience what everyone else is raving about.

The 330i features a beautiful 10.3-inch touchscreen display with optional Wi-Fi hotspot and Apple CarPlay. Exterior styling is sleek with exciting rear and front lighting and a design that is definitely BMW. The IIHS has given the 330i a Top Safety Pick+, which showcases BMW's commitment to safety. With an abundance of driver assistance features, you are sure to enjoy, and that will keep you safe.
Advantages and Comparison
The BMW 3 Series has continued to dominate the segment. Its rich racing heritage coupled with its driver focused experience make it the number one choice as sports sedan. Volvo as a brand has reimagined itself with new models that have caught the attention of journalists and automotive consumers alike. The S60 is a great example of the new Volvo, though it does a lot of things well, the 3 Series shows it's been in the game longer. The 3 Series features a more powerful 2.0-litre turbo with more horsepower and torque. Greater interior cargo space, more legroom and headroom coupled with advanced technologies make the 3 Series the top choice. And don't' forget with these trims matched up the BMW comes out $3,000 less expensive. Don't forget to check out our other BMW comparisons to learn more about why BMW leads the pack
