The New BMW 3 Series Is a Downgrade. Here's Why

BMW calls the new 3 Series "the best BMW 3 Series of all time." The base car costs about $2,000 more than before, has the same 255 horsepower, weighs almost 200 pounds more and is slower to 60. So is it really an upgrade?
BMW has just revealed the all-new, eighth-generation BMW 3 Series (G50). In this video I break down the new 330 and the 437-horsepower M350 xDrive, and why I think this new 3 Series is a downgrade: the price, the weight, the missing iDrive knob, the climate and air vent controls moved into the touchscreen, the smaller trunk, the AWD-only M350, the Drift Moment software update that doesn't arrive until 2027, and the styling. There's also the stuff BMW actually got right.
Is the new 3 Series ugly, or am I wrong? Tell me in the comments 👇
