Mr. Vikram Pawah, President and CEO, BMW Group India, said, “For over 3 years, the BMW M340i has stood tall as the highest-selling performance car in the Indian market. With more than 1000 happy customers in the country, this car is a segment best seller due to its unique M driving experience, commanding performance, attractive design, and a rich feature list. Engineered by BMW M, the BMW M340i delivers the quintessential sporting essence of the 3 while embodying BMW M’s pure passion for motorsport. Its aggressive styling, best-in-class driving dynamics, and the fan favorite B58 6-cylinder engine have made it an instant hit in the Indian market.”
Key exterior design upgrades include M-specific grille finished in black, M-specific ORVM housings, and dual exhaust tips. BMW is now offering the M340i with new 19-inch blacked-out alloy wheels and adaptive suspension.
Furthermore, the headlights are complimented by the M Lights Shadowline line, which adds a sporty black tint, making for an imposing front fascia. Additionally, the car features a body-colored M rear spoiler on the boot lid. The vehicle’s athletic touch is also enhanced by air intake struts and trapezoidal tailpipe trims.
The new M340i xDrive is available with a range of metallic paint schemes, including Arctic Race Blue, Dravit Grey, Fire Red Metallic, and Black Saphhire.
On the inside, the M340i features a new sporty steering wheel, ambient lighting, and a premium Harman Kardon surround sound system. It also gets a new curved connected dual-screen setup on the inside, which features a 14.9-inch instrument cluster with navigation and a 12.3-inch infotainment system with BMW OS 8.5.
The M340i is powered with a 3.0-liter turbocharged straight-six, making close to 374bhp and 500Nm, which is sent to all four wheels through an eight-speed automatic. Though BMW hasn’t altered the M340i mechanically in this update, it has made the M Sport suspension standard.
