NEW BMW 320i Sports

BMW has launched another BMW 320i variant called the BMW 320i Sports. The Sports suffix means your usual 320i gets an M Aerodynamics bodykit, 17 inch Double-Spoke M Light Alloy Wheels wrapped with 225/45R17 runflat tyres at the front and 225/40R17 runflat tyres at the rear, an M Sports Suspension which is stiffer and lowers ride height by 15mm, and a thicker M Leather Steering Wheel.

The 2.0 liter inline-4 Valvetronic engine produces an extra 6 horsepower over the normal 320i’s engine at 156 horsepower, but this additional power is gained through the extension of the power band to a peak of 6,500rpm rather than the 320i’s 150 horsepower at 6,200rpm. Peak torque is the same 200Nm kicking in at 3,600rpm.

On the inside, the interior is done up in Aluminum Glacier Silver trim. You also get semi-electrically adjustable sports seats. Another feature is an USB audio interface which allows the connection of iPods and some USB-based MP3 players/thumbdrives.

The BMW 320i Sports is priced at RM245,800 OTR without insurance, a premium of RM9,000 over the 320i which carries a sticker tag of RM236,800. Continue reading to view two more photos of the BMW 320i Sports.
