The 335d is unchanged for 2011. The BMW 335d delivers a special mix of sporting performance and clean fuel-efficient transportation. The 3-series sedan is the car that defines ‘sport sedan,’ and the benchmark every luxury car maker from Acura to Volvo aims at when it develops an entry-level luxury sport sedan. The rear-wheel drive 335d sedan is powered by a 3.0-liter, twin turbo, inline six-cylinder advanced diesel engine that puts out 265 horsepower and 425 pound-feet of torque. A six-speed automatic is the only transmission choice. This combination provides 0-60 acceleration in 6.0 seconds (BMW AG test results), while delivering an impressive 36 mpg on the highway. Standard safety features include six airbags, four wheel anti-lock disc brakes with adaptive brakelights, bi-xenon headlights, active anti-whiplash head restraints, electronic traction and stability control and run-flat tires.

Prepare to relearn everything you thought you knew about performance cars.

Munich, Germany.

Beyond strong engines, every car in the 3 Series lineup is characterized by an excellent balance of ride quality and handling response.

BMW’s xDrive permanent all-wheel-drive system, available in all but the 3 Series Convertible, greatly enhances all-season capability.

Braking is excellent in all 3 Series models.

For drivers more interested in sunshine and wind, there is the convertible.

For those who prefer not to deal with a clutch, the 6-speed automatic works very well.

If we had our choice, though, we’d opt for the manual transmission in any BMW.

In a more aggressive mode of travel, with the throttle down, working the gearchange frequently to keep the engine near its power peak, the 3 Series manual shifter falls short of the car’s overall high standard.

Some buyers may worry that BMW’s firmer Sport suspension, standard in the 335is and some coupe models and optional otherwise, makes the ride too harsh.

Still, many drivers will find that the Sport suspension borders on stiff, and especially in the convertible, where it can emphasize the shimmies inherent in a fairly heavy, open-top car.

The 2011 BMW 335is also features new steering wheel shift paddles when paired with the DCT.

The 3 Series suspension layout features double-joint aluminum control arms in front and a five-link fully independent system in the rear.

The 335d diesel, which is only offered with the automatic transmission, also provides a lot of power: 265 horsepower, with a whopping 425 pound-feet of torque.

The 335d does have some shortcomings.

The 335d sedan is powered by an ultra-high tech, 3.0-liter inline six-cylinder diesel engine, with features such as all-aluminum construction, high-pressure direct fuel injection, and a turbocharging system that employs both small and larger turbochargers for optimum response at low and higher speeds.

The 335i comes with a turbocharged 3.0-liter.

The 335is provides better performance but worse fuel economy.

The good news is that noise levels in the convertible are low, top up or down.

The steering is light when it should be, at low speeds, with proper resistance and feedback at higher speeds.

We found the 328i models fun to drive, with linear power and good throttle response that made us feel a class above other cars in traffic.

We found the single turbo in the 2011 BMW 335i delivers amazing thrust, as did the previous engine. 2011 BMW 335i models change from a twin to a single turbo, mostly to improve fuel economy. A 335i sedan is rated at 19/28 mpg City/Highway with either the 6-speed manual or 6-speed automatic transmission. A twin-turbocharged version is also available for 2011. Again though, the slick electronics come with a payback. And thanks to BMW’s electronic management, the brake pads move within a hair of the rotors if the driver suddenly releases the gas pedal, even if the driver hasn’t yet considered slamming on the brakes. BMW has tuned it to a low burble that sounds menacing. Boost is up from 8.7 to 11.6 psi, and there is an overboost mode that increases torque to 369 pound-feet for up to seven seconds by temporarily raising maximum boost to 14.5 psi. Clutch-pedal effort makes taking off easy, without having to think about it, and the gear ratios are perfectly spaced for either the base or turbocharged engine. Coming back down through the gears, drivers must take care if they choose a gear out of its normal sequence (fifth to second, for example), as this requires some careful aiming. Diesel fuel can sometimes cost more than gasoline, though, negating some operating cost savings. During a casual drive through the countryside in a 335i coupe, we were content to leave the manual in third or fourth gear, depending on the road, and enjoy the scenery as the engine’s broad power band kept the momentum flowing. EPA mileage ratings are 23/36 mpg City/Highway, which is considerably higher than the gasoline-powered 335i. For 40 years, this has been the prototypical sports sedan. Fuel economy for a 328i sedan is an EPA-rated 18/28 mpg City/Highway. Given the overall competence of the standard suspension, the Sport package could be considered an unnecessary expense. If something is amiss, BMW’s Dynamic Stability Control system senses that a particular wheel is losing traction, then applies the brake at that wheel or reduces engine power in an effort to keep the car going in the intended direction. If you’re not sure which you want, we recommend the standard suspension. In short bursts of say 100 ft, it will accelerate more quickly than just about anything on the road. Instead of pushing down to downshift and pulling up to upshift, the 335is has the more common, easier-to-use setup that downshifts on the left and upshifts on the right. It also requires urea to meet 50-state emissions standards. It clatters more when idling, especially when it’s cold. It goes from 0-60 mph in 6.0 seconds, which is just four tenths of a second slower than the gas-fueled 335i with the automatic transmission. It just seems more intuitive. It makes 320 horsepower and 332 pound-feet of torque. It makes the same 300 horsepower and 300 pound-feet of torque and BMW says that power is delivered slightly earlier to provide even better response. It’s a tuned version of last year’s engine with more boost pressure, and it’s offered in the new 335is models. It’s about as close as you can get to sports car driving dynamics in a more practical car, yet the fun never comes at the expense of beating up the passengers inside. It’s as if the engineers tried cramming slots for six forward gears into a shift pattern more properly proportioned for five. It’s louder and rougher in general than the gasoline engines, and it’s not as smooth as the latest diesels from Mercedes and Audi. It’s simply the price paid for wind in the hair. Nearly equal front/rear weight distribution leaves the driver in full command of where the car goes when, with a nicely tuned stability control system to keep watch should a driver venture beyond his or her capabilities. No problem with shift response when you do it yourself, and the optional steering-wheel paddles (the old kind in non 335is models) mean you can manually shift the automatic without removing hands from the wheel. Once a driver gets used to the throttle, however, the 335d’s torque can be a joy. Still, if the tank runs dry, the 335d won’t restart until it’s replenished with urea. The 335d is quite expensive, so it may not appeal to anyone but the hard-core diesel enthusiast or environmentalist. The 335i’s Valvetronic system, which eliminates the need for a throttle plate, makes fuel economy equal to or better than the naturally aspirated 328i. The 335is coupe is rated at 18/26 mpg with the manual and 17/24 with the DCT. The BMW 3 Series offers rear-wheel drive and manual transmissions in a class filled with front-wheel drive and automatics. The connection through the manual allows the driver to more thoroughly exploit the goodness in the 3 Series engines. The current 3s are superbly balanced, and in the right circumstances they’re sinfully fun to drive. The diesel delivers the performance-oriented kick that has long been a 3 Series trademark, with none of the smoky, oily, stinky quality that old-time diesels might condition buyers to expect. The diesel generates fewer exhaust emissions than many gasoline engines and it produces less carbon dioxide. The extra power cuts the 0-60 mph time to just 5.0 seconds with BMW’s 7-speed dual-clutch automated manual transmission (DCT), which was previously only offered in the M3. The large brake calipers and rotors deliver more clamping force than most competitors. The non-linear, progressive algorithm that controls the brake system can make smooth stops a challenge in casual driving, at least until the driver has had time to get familiar with the feel of the brake pedal. The open-top BMW 3 is as solid as convertibles go, however, the owner will experience little bits of twisting and shaking that would not be felt in the sedan, coupe, or wagon. The pads also lightly sweep the rotors every few seconds if it’s raining, just to be sure there is no significant moisture build up. The Sport suspension may be jolted by potholes, but it responds immediately and maintains a level ride rather than seesawing up and down. The throws are shorter than ever, but the gears engage with a vague, slightly stretchy feel. Then there is the Steptronic manual mode, which allows manual gear selection. There’s so much torque, even a casual jab at the gas pedal can spin the rear tires substantially exiting a parking lot. There’s the slightest whistle from the seams between the top’s pieces, but the thick headliner quiets almost all outside rumble. This ammonia-like substance is stored in an onboard reservoir, and the tank should be filled at typical oil change intervals. This is trick stuff, but it’s nothing compared to the electronics that manage everything. Top down, air flow is channeled in a fashion that allows front seat occupants to converse easily at freeway speeds. Top up, no surprise, it’s as close to a coupe as it can be without actually being one. Turbo lag is nonexistent, and 0-60 mph comes quickly, just 5.4 seconds with the manual transmission. We also like the engine note. We found cowl shake and body flex are better contained in the 3 Series convertible than they are in the Volkswagen Eos or Volvo C70. We found in most cases, it does not. We found it can be a bit slow to react with an appropriate gear change in Normal mode, but leaving it in Sport mode solves the problem, with a slight payback in more abrupt shifting. We prefer this design. With a quick 0 to 60 mph time of 6.3 seconds, few will feel short-changed on performance. With its tight, rigid body structure as a foundation, the 3 Series suspension can be fine tuned to provide the dynamic handling enthusiast drivers like without sacrificing a smooth ride that pleases passengers. xDrive delivers most of the power to the rear wheels most of the time, maintaining the sporting feel associated with rear-wheel drive, but it’s great for getting the 3 through the worst winter slop without dramatics.

BMW’s multi-layer, mouse-style iDrive interface is optional in the 3 Series, but if you want the navigation system, you’ll have to take iDrive.

In other respects, the 3 Series cabin is more user-friendly than ever.

Rear-seat accommodations are adequate in all 3 Series models.

Seats have long been a 3 Series strength.

The 3 Series has no keyed ignition switch, relying instead on a slot-type key fob and a starter button.

The audio controls could be higher in the center stack for easier access, and the buttons for station presets and assorted functions demand more concentration than they should.

The automatic climate control features separate temperature adjustments for driver and front passenger.

The Comfort Access option makes everything automatic, and the thinking here is more obvious.

The Convertible offers the least cargo space.

The coupes are limited to four passengers, the center space in back is replaced by a console, which includes individual storage boxes, additional air vents and footwell lights.

The dashboard has a pronounced horizontal format, with more community and less driver orientation than previous 3 Series cars.

The new 2011 BMW 335is gets a few interior style changes.

The single-CD stereo sounds good, with 10 speakers and separate subwoofers under the front seats.

The soft vinyl and plastics improve on previous generations in both appearance and feel, and they rival the best in class.

The Sport Wagon is easily the best choice in the 3 Series line for cargo hauling.

There are subtle interior differences in the models across the 3 Series lineup.

Trunk space is small for the class, with 12 cubic feet in the sedan, 11 cubic feet in the coupe. A mist sensor measures moisture on the windshield and automatically adjusts the defroster, while a heat-at-rest feature keeps the cabin heated for a time after the car is turned off. A separate compartment under the trunk mat, measuring 1.7 cubic feet, adds space for small items that won’t slide around. A split-folding rear seatback is standard on the coupe, optional on the sedan. All models offer a choice of real aluminum or various wood trims, and there’s a lot of it on the dash and doors. Also, it can sometimes be harder to discern whether the car is switched on or off with a keyless pushbutton system, which can lead to dead batteries and increased profits for tow truck operators. As passengers we might like them less, but as drivers we love them. Audio controls on the steering wheel work well, once they’re mastered. BMW’s Leatherette vinyl is not the least bit tacky, while the optional leather is soft and thick. But the essentials, including dashboard, console and front seats, are the same across the four body styles. But you have to pull it back out to lock the doors when you get out. Cargo volume increases to 24.8 cubic feet, floor to ceiling, behind the rear seat. From the handling, accelerating or braking standpoints, it gives up nothing to the 328i sedan, and it adds a dimension of utility. It adds wattage and three speakers, with the latest digital sound processing and surround technology. It also has programmable preset buttons that look like radio presets but can be used to store anything from common navigation destinations to audio balance. It features the thick M Sport steering wheel, gray gauge faces with 335is logos, sport bucket seats, an anthracite headliner, stainless steel-trimmed pedals, and additional badging. It used to be that the driver and front-seat passenger had to reach way back to find their shoulder belts. It’s almost like sitting in a little limousine. It’s fully lined with thick, soft carpet, and it’s full of convenient features, including separate enclosed bins, cargo straps, bag holders, a power point, a cargo cover at seat height and a roll-out cargo net. Lower the top, and cargo space reduces dramatically. Now occupants just sit down and close the doors, and the belts come to them. There are plenty of storage pockets and nooks, including large pockets in the doors. On a positive note, the navigation system comes with a hard drive the can store up to eight gigabytes of music, or about as much as the typical iPod. Remember: this is a compact car, and rear passengers with long torsos will feel their hair rubbing on the headliner. Some will like it, some won’t. Switching between AM, FM and other modes can be distracting while driving. That’s notable because German cars are notorious for not having cubby storage. The 3 Series follows BMW’s tradition of soft orange backlighting for the instruments. The 3 Series has the fourth-generation of iDrive, which comes with several buttons around the central controller a large, sharp, 8.8-inch control screen. The 335 models come with an audio upgrade called Logic 7. The 335 models get power adjustments with three memory positions. The BMW 3 Series cabin takes the best of several ideas first applied in the larger 5 Series and 7 Series models, synthesizes them for a smaller car and improves them in the process. The center console is climate controlled, and there is a large storage tray in the center console, near the auxiliary audio input connector, which provides place to lay an MP3 player or other audio source. The coupe, for example, has different instrument script and a third wood trim option not offered in the sedan (dark-stained poplar). The coupe, for example, has seatbelt presenters, or motorized arms that emerge from little doors built into the rear side panels. The driver just pushes the start button, and pushes it again when it’s time to get out. The fob slides into a slot next to the steering column, and you push the button to fire up. The look is a bit sportier, which is appropriate. The manual adjustments work great, though we recommend using them only when the car is parked. The orange readout on the stereo is almost invisible when wearing polarized sunglasses on a sunny day, even though similar readouts for climate control are perfectly legible. The power seats that come with the Sport Package are outstanding, though the additional back and bottom bolstering make them harder to slide into. The rear accommodations are actually a little better in the coupe in terms of roominess, though access is more difficult in the absence of rear doors. The rear air vents can be separately adjusted for temperature and air volume. The sedan and wagon seat five but the center position in the back seat is best left to children. The standard front buckets provide excellent support without feeling too hard. The standard setup has a single bubble, or hood, over the gauge cluster, while the optional navigation system is installed in a dash that accommodates it with a second hood in the center. The wagon is available with all-wheel drive, giving it winter-weather capability. The wagon’s load area is flat, too, which is good for dogs and cargo. There are actually two dash designs. There are even buttons on the outside of each front seat, so those in back can reach up and power the front seat forward to ease exit from the rear of the car. There’s a maximum 9.0 cubic feet when the top is up. There’s decent legroom and more shoulder room. We aren’t completely enamored with everything inside the 3 Series, but we have few serious gripes. We do not like keyless system. We do not like this system, and we are not sold on the benefit it has over a conventional key. We found simple tasks like calling up a map or pre-setting radio stations a challenge. We’d forgo the navigation system so we could avoid the iDrive. We’ve seen instances where keyless fobs get misplaced, causing confusion and stress. With fob in pocket, the doors unlock automatically as the driver approaches, and the seats are waiting in their proper position. With the rear seat folded forward, the 3 Series wagon can swallow nearly 61 cubic feet of stuff, more than some small SUVs. With the top down, count on maybe a medium-sized duffel bag, and make sure the top is closed before stowing anything.

Aside from subjective price-value analysis, we think the most noteworthy hitch in the 3 Series is the downside of its many electronic gizmos.

BMW 328i models come with BMW’s trademark 3.0-liter straight six, and we found it’s more than powerful enough for brisk acceleration and a sinfully good time.

Exterior dimensions for all 3 Series models are relatively compact, making them good cars for crowded city centers.

Few cars in this class can match the 3 Series for its overall balance of technology, rationality, performance and driving pleasure.

For 2011, all 3 Series body styles get minor design changes.

For 2011, BMW 335i features a single turbo instead of a twin turbo, and a new performance tuned twin-turbo model called the 335is has been added.

The 3 Series cars are based on a rear-wheel-drive layout.

The 3 Series comprises a range of sedans, coupes, convertibles and wagons, with different engines, and a wide variety of options.

The 3 Series coupes are the sportiest.

The BMW 335d features a new-age diesel engine that’s as clean as any of its gasoline counterparts.

The four-door sedan is the most familiar of the 3 Series body styles, and among the most passenger friendly. All models are distinctively styled and clearly recognizable as BMWs. All models share mechanical components and similarly compact exterior dimensions. All-wheel drive is available, however, for improved traction in wintry conditions. BMW sells more manual transmissions in this class than any manufacturer, and that says something about the type of drivers choosing the 3 Series. Despite its improved fuel economy, it retains the sporting character that has long defined the 3 Series line. Differences lie in body style or exterior design, though the coupe and convertible seat four passengers while the sedan and wagon seat five. Even the optional automatic transmission is tuned for crisp, sporty shifting. Handling response is sharp and precise, and braking capability is best in class. It reportedly qualifies for a federal tax credit of about $900. It’s great for couples or families who often bring the dog, though it isn’t available with the turbocharged engine. Some competitors offer more room, more power, better mileage or maybe better interiors for less money. The 2011 BMW 335is is available with BMW’s dual-clutch automated manual transmission (DCT), which was previously only offered on the M3. The 3 Series sedans define the term sports sedan and remain an aspirational target for every luxury automaker, from Acura to Volvo. The 328i and 335i Convertibles might be the sexiest 3s, with a fully automatic, one-button folding metal hardtop. The BMW 3 Series cars are the quintessential BMWs. The convertible seats four, but it’s not offered with all-wheel drive. The diesel generates a whopping 425 pound-feet of torque, and at 23 City/36 Highway, it delivers the highest EPA mileage ratings of any 3 Series model. The firmer sport suspension, optional with other body styles, comes standard on the coupe, and these are the lightest cars in the line. The shapely two-door coupe offers more sports appeal than the four-door sedan but still has a two-place back seat and a trunk only slightly smaller than that of the sedan. The Sports Wagon adds substantial cargo space and utility. The upgrade turbo six in the 335i is one of the most viscerally satisfying engines in production. They accelerate, turn and stop with remarkable agility and balance, without seriously compromising comfort or common sense. They have as much power as most drivers will ever need, and they deliver the same inherent goodness and most of the key features as the 335 models. We like the top models, but we also recommend the less-expensive 328i models. We think our favorite Bimmer is getting mucked up with too much annoying stuff.

The BMW 335i sedan and 335i xDrive sedan feature a turbocharged version of the 3.0-liter inline-6, delivering 300 horsepower.

Safety features include front-impact airbags that deploy at different rates depending on the severity of impact, front passenger side-impact airbags and full-cabin, curtain-type head protection airbags.

The 335is coupe and convertible have a twin-turbo engine that makes 320 horsepower.

The BMW 328i sedan  is powered by a 230-hp 3.0-liter inline-6.

The BMW 335d sedan is powered by a 3.0-liter turbodiesel six in the same inline configuration. A 6-speed manual comes standard, and most models are offered with a 6-speed Steptronic automatic. Active safety features, designed to help the driver avoid collisions, include Dynamic Stability Control and the latest generation antilock brakes. Model designations are consistent across the body styles and standard equipment is similar, though coupes and convertibles include a few more features in the base price. The 2011 BMW 3 Series models come standard with automatic climate control, a climate-controlled center console, a choice of aluminum or different wood interior trims, heated windshield washer nozzles, rain-sensing wipers, a power moonroof, 10-speaker AM/FM/CD, and Dynamic Cruise Control. The 328i xDrive sedan adds xDrive permanent all-wheel drive. The 335i models come with power front seats with memory and Logic 7 audio. The 335is comes standard with the 6-speed manual and is available with a double-clutch 7-speed automated manual transmission. The 335is models have equipment otherwise offered in the M Sport package, including the BMW M Sport steering wheel, M Sport seats, an anthracite headliner, 18-inch wheels, and stiffer engine mounts. The ABS preloads the brake pedal when the driver suddenly lifts off the gas pedal, and includes a feature that lightly sweeps the brake discs dry every 1.5 seconds when it’s raining. The Cold Weather Package adds heated seats, heated steering wheel, headlight washers, ski sack, and in the sedan, a split-folding rear seat. The convertibles add knee airbags that help keep front passengers from sliding under the seat belts. The Sport Package includes sporting suspension calibrations tuned by BMW’s M performance division for the sedan, wagon and convertible, more heavily bolstered sport seats, sport steering wheel, Shadowline exterior trim, increased top-speed limiter, and a wheel-performance tire upgrade. Vinyl upholstery is standard with leather optional.

BMW 335d sedan

6-speed Steptronic automatic; Sport Package  includes sports suspension, sport steering wheel, 18-inch wheels with W-rated performance tires, power sport seats, Shadowline exterior trim and 155-mph speed-limiter; Dakota leather upholstery; iPod and USB adapter; Comfort Access keyless start; Sirius satellite radio with one-year subscription; steering wheel paddle shifters.

J.P. All remain benchmarks for overall performance, and none exacts a significant toll in efficiency, practicality or comfort. Any of the 3 Series are among the sportiest, most enjoyable cars in a class full of good cars. For 2011, there’s a new 335is version slotted below the M3, and it’s a blast to drive and a performance bargain. Prices rise quickly and substantially from the bottom of the 3 Series line, but we think most buyers will find the least expensive models as useful and enjoyable as the most expensive. The 3 Series offers BMW’s xDrive all-wheel drive system, and every model is laden with leading-edge technology. The BMW 3 Series provides something for every taste, from sedan to wagon, coupe to convertible and even a diesel.

What BMW does best.

2011 3 Series coupes and convertibles are an inch longer in than the 2010 versions due to revisions to the front bumper and lower fascia.

2011 3 Series sedans and wagons get a bolder front end with a larger air intake, sharper lines on the hood, and more prominent side character lines.

All 3 Series body styles ride a 108.7-inch wheelbase, and by every exterior dimension, they’re all within two inches of each other.

In profile or front three-quarter view, the 3 Series Convertible closely resembles the coupe.

The 3 Series sedan, wagon, coupe, and convertible all look different from one another, but they have a family appearance and are immediately recognizable as BMWs.

The 3 Series Sport Wagon is identical to the sedan from the center roof pillar forward.

The model line’s high-tech theme is visible from the outside.

The new BMW 335is features a modified front end without fog lights to allow more air intake.

The sedan is the best seller, and perhaps most familiar to the motoring public. All feature BMW’s adaptive brake lights, which are based on the idea that drivers in the cars following a 3 Series will know when the 3 is braking hard: The LED lights illuminate more intensely, over a larger area, when the driver applies the brakes full-lock or when the ABS operates. Along the sides, it gets lower aero skirts. At the rear, LEDs now adorn the redesigned taillights. For 2011, all 3 Series models get some minor styling changes. In general, these are the largest 3 Series cars ever. Its front end and the arc of its roofline are nearly identical to those of the coupe. Many models come with adaptive bi-xenon headlights that turn with the steering wheel to aim into a curve. Models with xenon high-intensity discharge headlights now use the round corona rings as daytime running lights. Most of the extra width and length translates into more interior space compared to previous generations, particularly in the back seat. Rearward, its roofline tapers slightly all the way to the rear of the car, while the bottom line of the rear windows tapers upward slightly, creating a teardrop shape. Roof rails are standard on the wagon, and its rear gate opens electrically, with a switch on the key fob or dashboard. Thanks to the weight of the top’s operating mechanism, as well as body reinforcements intended to maintain structural integrity when the top is open, the convertibles are heavier than the lightest 3 Series cars by some 400 pounds. That lid is hinged both front and rear, so it can open toward the back to swallow the folding top, and from the back to load the trunk. The 3 Series sedan has a new trunk shape for 2011, and the track is 0.6 inch wider. The coupe is a bit longer and lower than the sedan, and not as wide. The coupe’s hood looks longer, and it’s fashioned with a subtle dome that suggests a powerful engine underneath. The difference, of course, is the convertible’s retractable metal hardtop, which opens or closes at the touch of a button in just 22 seconds. The diffuser’s shape helps air flow over the rear axle. The headlights are reshaped for 2011. The rear features a unique bumper, black chrome exhaust tips, additional air ducting, and a black lower diffuser. The rear glass opens separately, which is convenient for quickly loading lightweight items. The top folds in three pieces and stows itself under the trunk lid. The twin-kidney grille is wider, the headlights add the LED corona rings we become accustomed to seeing on the 5 Series and other BMWs, and there are now LED brows above the headlights. The windshield flows into a roofline that’s long and curved in a continuous arc, and lower than that on the sedan. With extensive use of plastic composite materials for parts such as the front fenders, the coupes are also the lightest cars in the line, even though they carry more standard equipment. With standard xenon headlamps, its front light clusters are smaller.

The car’s 0-60-mph time of 5.3 sec. is not only 0.6 sec. quicker than the A4 3.2, but only 0.3 sec. slower than its gasoline-powered BMW 335i brother.
