The BMW M3 CS Touring has claimed the crown as the fastest wagon ever to lap the Nürburgring Nordschleife, shaving time off ...

No, the 340i isn't going to be as fun, but it's got all the attributes of an Alpina B3, including the trunk and the availability of AWD. With the right set of options, this is a killer Bimmer.

New exhaust tail pipes are fitted to different models depending upon engine output. The range-topping BMW 340i features individual 80mm tailpipes on the left and right, while the engines for the 320i ...

Anyway, while an M3 Touring might not be on the picture, the upcoming Sedan will be powered by a twin-turbo 3.0-liter inline-six with a maximum output of around 474 HP (480 PS).

The B58 3.0-liter makes 320 hp, allowing BMW 's clueless marketers to ditch the 335i badge from the old 300-hp car in favor of a higher number. Unfortunately, the 340i is no faster than the old 335i.

Considering the spec, the car should have cost 903,470 krona, which is roughly $107,000, however the price was set to 799,000 kr, or $95,000. This 340i xDrive Touring has a lot going for it.

Our test model was the 2016 BMW 340i, equipped with the new six-cylinder engine. This is a turbocharged 3.0-liter six that outputs 320 horses (239 kW) and 330 lb-ft (447 Nm) of torque ...

One that is more noticeable is the badge on the back, which now says 340i instead of 335i. No, this isn't a BMW powered by Jeep's 4.0 liter straight-six, it's a new 3.0 liter turbo with more power ...

That's for each buyer to decide, but the 340i has made me look forward to seeing a 3-Series again, something that hasn't been the case the past few years. -- Andrew Stoy, digital editor ...

This engine allows the 340i to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in just 5.1 seconds. On the diesel side, the range includes the 316d, 318d, 320d, 325d, 330d, and the high-performance 335d.
