New BMW 330e M Sport

BMW Malaysia today introduced the New BMW 330e M Sport to the line-up of locally assembled premium vehicles, to deliver a sportier and more efficient driving experience. The best of both worlds can be experienced as the new electrified sedan combines electrifying power with BMW’s Sheer Driving Pleasure.

“As a pioneer in the field of electromobility, our success story for the electrified sports sedan in Malaysia began in 2016. We have delivered over 6,200 units nationwide since then. Today, we are pleased to present the locally assembled, newest generation BMW 3 Series equipped with the latest BMW eDrive technology. This variant further underlines our commitment towards accelerating the uptake of electromobility in Malaysia, in line with the government’s plans for greener mobility nationwide,” said Harald Hoelzl, Managing Director of BMW Group Malaysia.

The New BMW 330e M Sport exudes both innovative power and modern sportiness, as the powerful four-cylinder engine with BMW TwinPower Turbo technology works in synchrony with the latest-generation BMW eDrive technology to perfectly capture the hallmark BMW 3 Series Sheer Driving Pleasure. For the first time ever, the XtraBoost feature – built to provide a more intense acceleration experience, makes its debut in the BMW 3 Series portfolio as well.

To further enhance the electric driving pleasure, advancements in connectivity and driver assistance systems within the vehicle are crafted to best suit the modern-day driver. The M Sport package also lends a particularly bold exterior appearance to the new electrified sedan – one that fully complements the sporty interior design language as well.

When electrifying power meets thrilling sportiness.

The New BMW 330e M Sport arrives with a new sporty exterior design language that is enhanced by the adaptive LED headlights with extended content, along with slim 3D L-shaped LED taillights in the rear. The 18-inch M light alloy wheels in double-spoke style 790 M Bicolour with mixed tyres lend a muscular appearance to the electrified sports sedan.

The New BMW 330e M Sport is powered by an efficient 2-litre 4-cylinder petrol engine with BMW TwinPower Turbo and XtraBoost technology, that allows the vehicle to record a combined maximum output of 292hp and a peak torque of 420Nm – while consuming a low 2.2 litres of fuel per 100km of travel and emitting only 50g of carbon emissions per kilometre of travel. The New BMW 330e M Sport can also make the century sprint in 5.9 seconds, and records a top speed of 230km/h.

Designed to provide an increase in system output to 292hp and in turn, offer a much more intense acceleration experience, the XtraBoost feature can be activated by means of the Driving Experience Control switch in SPORT mode. The XtraBoost is also available during kickdown manoeuvres and after shifting the gear selector switch to the M or S position.

Equipped with the 8-Speed Steptronic Sport transmission, the New BMW 330e M Sport is complete with M Sport brakes and adaptive M Sport suspension, along with variable sports steering for sportier handling. The M Aerodynamics package is also available to the new variant as standard.

The interior of the New BMW 330e M Sport features sleek Aluminium Tetragon interior trim finishers along with the BMW Individual headliner anthracite. The driver’s cockpit is equipped with the sporty M leather steering wheel and three-zone automatic air-conditioning, along with the BMW Live Cockpit Professional – which features a digital instrument cluster with 12.3-inch display and a 10.25-inch touchscreen control display unit. Running on the BMW Operating System 7, the New BMW 330e M Sport is also equipped with BMW ConnectedDrive services as standard.

The new variant is also equipped with a 10-speaker HiFi Loudspeaker system with 205W amplifier power for maximum entertainment. The Apple CarPlay feature is also available upon subscription. Further complementing this future-forward sedan is the BMW Digital Key, available as standard to the New BMW 330e M Sport to ensure next-level vehicle security and management for added convenience.

Driving assistance is offered to the BMW 330e M Sport via the Driving Assistant Professional with steering and lane guidance assistant, as well as the Parking Assistant featuring the reverse assistant. The reverse assistant records the last 50 meters of travel below 35 km/h for a better experience when reversing through narrow streets. A rear-view camera is also equipped as standard.

The New BMW 330e M Sport is available in Alpine White, Black Sapphire, Portimao Blue, Mineral Grey, and Sunset Orange. These can be complemented by either Black or Cognac Leather Vernasca upholstery with decor stitching in Black.
