Thanks
Sounds better than the M3 as far as I am concerned. More melodic. I love it!
Looks a lot better too
1/4 mile in 12.4" impressive !
I love that B58 motor
It's insane how quick cars have become nowadays. An E60 M5 probably does high 4's consistently, could probably do 4.5 secs in optimal conditions and it had 507 hp. Obviously this is AWD and so are 300hp VAGs than can sprint to 100 in less than five seconds, but what we consider fast has really changed quite a lot in a decade.
Exactly. And you can get this for far less than what a E60 M5 was when it was new in the dealer. Of course it won't beat it's sound but then again nothing will.
@@Phoenix_1991 as someone that had an e46 m3 and then a e60 m5 - the sport models of a common sedan are faster and maybe "better" daily than the past m models
mmmakeee fully agree!!
That's like saying an Audi RS3 is faster than an f10 M5 just because it's 0-100 time is quicker.
madrx2 the key figures is 0-100. Not overall speed
Your channel is awesome!! So thorough. Keep doing what you're doing.
Thanks!
I recently drove a brand new 340i X drive and I was so impressed with its performance, the way it put the power down and pushes you to the seat was something else! I'd love to have one as a daily with a stage one remap as I think it would upset a few cars that are meant to be super quick. Oh and stick a 320i badge at the back 🙂
The upshifts are a dream😍
That's exactly what I thought
This is the perfect sedan imo.
I can’t imagine how powerful the new M3 will be.
@@willpark7483 No shit shirlock
@@willpark7483 No he wasn't. He was saying the new m3 is going to be a beast. He didn't even mention the old one. Jesus.
Lol
@@willpark7483 I just like fighting with trolls.
Will P Sam’s comment isn’t very ambiguous, he’s just left the start of it in ellipsis; what he means is; “given how powerful this lesser model already is, I can’t imagine how powerful the new M3 will be”.
beautiful car that sounds great and is legit fast.
definitely sounds and goes well but im not a fan of the styling.
Looks promising! The specs are epic!
So much quick in its catagory...bmw nailed it 😱👌
330i owner here - I will own this beautiful machine one day! This is the perfect balance between luxury and sport - the daily M3!
Wow, if this takes 4.2s to 100kmph, can't wait to see what the M3/4 does.
@Bilal Ahmed the new m3 is also being released in a automatic/awd configuration as well as a manual/rwd variant.
3.6 - 3.7 probably...same as a TT RS or RS4
Next video we need RS3 performance test figures and Nismo GT-R 😊 keep up the nice work!
It’s good how this one gets the upgraded B58 with 285kw
Love the Baritone Bellow from the B58. It's absolutely fantastic!
The EU version sounds the same as this , i have just upgraded from a 330i g20 to a M340i g20 in the UK ,exactly the same colour as this one. The 330i is a great car and i loved it but the M340i is on another level . I used to get 36mpg out of the 330i and now im getting 34mpg out of the 340i, cant grumble at that.
That is seriously quick!
This defenlly going to be my next car i love it. So much beter than 330i its worth the extra money spent.
So gorgeous and it’s quick!😍❤️
You know this four seater sedan is fast when it does 15s 0-200 and the new supra does over 16s
Sleeper credentials well earned.
Looks good in that black sapphire metallic! 👍
Either a bmw fan boy or youre stepping up your production 👍
M340 , M8 grand coupe are the best BMW’s out there .
Let's not forget the M2 Competition.
Modern turbocharged German engines are as safe and strong as earlier naturally aspirated German and Japanese engines
No
Hey, question... is the exhaust Sound Original from the M340i or is there any Stage 1 or Downpipes?
Ever thought about adding a price into your reviews?
Yep, we can if you like, but it would only be relevant to the Australian market.
We do mention the price in the written review linked in the description.
PDriveTV that’s cool. It would depend on your viewer base I guess. Be nice to have an idea as an Aussie viewer what the price will be in AUD. You could even add conversions for US or Canada.
Fa 'Le no doubt. I tend to binge watch through the videos. I’ll read a review usually when I am interested in a car that I am considering to own.
Why dont you just google for your current country? Prices vary massively
TeacherToolkitDemo seen other reviewers who price for their country. It’s only a suggestion.
I tested this car, enjoyed it and bought... Tesla Model 3 Performance. 340i is not lazy but the comparison of the performances is cruel for BMW. In France, buying a 340i means a final price increased of a huge penalty. Max penalty for polluting cars can go up to 20k€...
Nevertheless, BMW has good engineers because this 340i is penalized only by around 6k€.
So, I am convinced that we dream BMW 340i and buy 318d...
So you considered car and bought toaster?
Great performance.
Great video!!
Pls test the new Accord 2.0T
Thanks. Accord 2.0T is not available in Australia, so unfortunately we can't test it.
PDriveTV okay!
Thanks, bro!!
Some loud farts there! I do like this M340i however, de-badged with the right options making things a little more discreet
Neo Man normally ppl de-badge baseline models and feel it a must to keep the badge for higher trims ;)
Please do a video on the 2023 340i😊
Great car. Not a fan of the exhaust tips, traditional circular/oval tips would be my preference.
I really really miss the old vertical grill .....
that initial grip of AWD though
soon ima buy that whip
Bro imagine the new M3 with Xdrive 😎
And still with an inline-6.
@@brianlee4629 It still has a inline 6...
blake301987 ....and it won’t have X-Drive
@@sjb2471 yeah, Xdrive would ruin it.
@@blake301987 Good then bc I absolutely love BMW straight-sixes.
New CLS 450 4matic please.
This sounds better than M440i in your new video. Have they changed something?
De-badge this and it's the ultimate sleeper.
I don’t understand why BMW insists on putting their fake engine noise over top of a glorious I-6 engine???? There’s no reason to modify the sound the engine makes naturally. BMW used to make some of the best sounding vehicles. Even as recently as the E9x 335i you got a delightfully straight exhaust that sounded super deep at low revs but would howl away when you let it rip. Nowadays they just muffle everything and mask the muffling with the worst sounding warble. Even a Ford Focus ST sounds more convincing, and that’s hard to believe.
Active Sound :)
ANAL DEVASTATOR yeah active sound sucks. BMW’s is the worst sounding engine sound enhancement in the industry. They use the same exact sound for I-3, I-4, I-6 and V8 engines. It’s a nasally warble that’s super annoying.
I’m considering getting this car. Or the Audi s5. Any ideas on which one is better ? I know the bmw is a little faster.
This could almost be an M3. Just delete the "40i" from rear badge. Would look sik
Great content! What are you using for filming?
Thanks. GoPro Hero 7 Black
Do you think the prices of these new models of bmw at the dealer are reasonable? I mean you get quite a performance for it's price, but then again the price is not for everyone 😄
Loving the M340i. But couldn't you have found a quieter road to do your tests on? :-))...
My dream car😍
Damm its fucking awesome !
Max acceleration g is more than the m3
So 0-100km/h ...how many seconds?
Results are at the end.
PDriveTV oh,I see...thx
4 door supra
The Supra has the same engine right?
yes
This car used to be called the 340i. No need for fake “M” badges on non-M cars. Marketing has come a long way, for the wrong reasons.
These days M stands for Marketing or More sales volume not Motorsport like it used to.
😆 Trust me, this car deserves that M badge
This car is A LOT faster than old M3s...even E92s
Why 40-44db and 84-90db ? It depends on what ? (I'm looking for a silent one, the 330i seems more silent). Thanks
what does "brake hold" mean? launch control on?
The best sedan!!!
Your review started of good what the h happen!
Engine sound from inside the cabin is mediocre. All modern BMW suffer from that. AMG does a better job in regards to engine sound.
Xhp tune?
It has OPF?
Are the acceleration times with or without 1-ft rollout?
We never add a 1-foot rollout.
💪🏻💪🏻
Sorry for the noob question but what does brake hold mean exactly when accelerating a car?
Aka Launch Control. Holding the brake while revving the engine to a certain rpm then releasing the brake so the car would have a better launch than just slamming the gas pedal.
@@delusionality190 Yep. We can change that term if it's confusing? We don't want to say 'launch control' as some cars have proper launch control and others don't. But we're happy to consider simply calling it launch control if everyone prefers.
I think the majority would understand what break hold means. Maybe do a youtube poll?
@@PDriveTV Brake hold is just fine
@@PDriveTV Keep it at "brake hold". Otherwise people (like myself) can be deceived by thinking the car has actual lunch control
Look ok but automatic transmission? I bet it will break down the transmission sucks now if it was a manual transmission then maybe it will last longer. For you kids manual transmission doesn’t mean paddle shifter.
Fred Taj the Zf gearboxes are some of the best in the business. You could get these with manual but not sure about in Australia.
Fred Taj You clearly have no idea what a ZF gearbox is. BMW have been using this gearbox for well over a decade now and it’s safe to say that they have nearly perfected it. It is an 8-speed automatic ( was 6-speed in the late 2000s) and is being used by every major manufacturer lately. BMW though have been known for tuning it in the best way possible. It is robust and can handle shit loads of hp and torque, so much so that the new M-cars, Audi RS cars, Jags and many other high performance variants have ditched the DCTs for these, as they are smooth even at cruising speed(same cannot be said about the DCT). It is almost as quick as a DCT in shifts when in sport mode but won’t break your neck while shifting.
Ofcourse a manual gearbox is always going to be more engaging in comparison to any automatic out there but if you’re looking for performance this will leave the manual in dust.
The new M3/M4 will still be getting the manual transmission unlike other manufacturers who have ditched manuals a generation ago, so that’s a big thing. You can choose manual + RWD or automatic + AWD(still RWD biased, the X-drive) configurations respectively.
Muzammil Hussain i to get it it might be good i do have a idea and for your information BMW 8 speed transmission is so perfected that’s why so many BMW are breaking down because of the perfected transmission, how do i know that my family is in transmission business specially German transmission they service or rebuild more 8 speed BMW transmission because they are perfect.
@@taurus66 the ZF trans is not only in BMW's but in demons,hellcats,rolls Royces,etc they are in multiple cars now because of how strong and reliable they are.
What a nice lexus
Edit.exciting stuff starts at 2:40 😉
The ultimate Q car!
This is bomb,no car
I really wish the new m3 wouldn't come with the atrocious digital speedo/tacho with the refresh rate of an atari. It's Such a fad.
Actually the framerate isn’t bad....
@@Yayane_ the digits are so slow
That’s just a software adjustment then
@@madrx2 it is good but round analogs just fit more in a bmw
@@v12-s65 agree
If the sports car is kissed by the BB, the faster sport car run, the longer the kiss time...Haha..........................................
Bargain for what u get!
2020 m5 would dust it
No shit
M5 costs twice as much, too.
Boong ah
What’s with BMW watering down the M division? It’s become a sales gimmick. There’s nothing “M”about that car.
Matt Prall This is separate from the M division, this is an M performance car, different from the M line up
Yaseen Yasir I don’t think so. They use the M to distinguish performance oriented vehicles and they are using it on this vehicle and many others as a sales gimmick.
@@Need4speedirl
100-200 in 10.78 seconds..
Thats M2 Comp time😂
TheForza19033 there’s way more to a true M car than driving in a straight line.
@@Need4speedirl Tell me
Still not a fan of how the 3.0T sounds in the BMWs.
Nothing special. Good sound tho
