2020 BMW 330i xDrive Vs. 2020 Lexus IS350
The 2020 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 330i is capable of.
Exterior, Interior, and Safety
The 330i on the inside puts its occupants into a world that is hard to find outside. With attention to detail, the BMW offers excellent materials and superior build quality you can really feel. It features content like heads-up display, heated front and rear seats, remote start, customizable ambient lighting, and wireless charging. 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 your drive while staying safe.
Advantages and Comparison
The 330i has been and continues to be the entry-level sports sedan segment's champion. The Lexus IS350 has been making noise; however, with the superiority of the BMW 330i, the Lexus is still left behind. The BMW offers more options, greater fuel efficiency, more front, and rear legroom, and much more. With a lower MSRP by $4000, it only makes sense to get behind the wheel of a 330i
