BMW 3 Series 2020 - 2.0 330e 12kWh M Sport Saloon 4dr Petrol Plug-in Hybrid Auto Euro 6 (s/s) (

2 Previous Owners, Browns of Richmond are delighted to offer this impressive BMW 330e PHEV, one of the most popular plug-in hybrids currently available and a great way to enter the world of alternative fuel power trains. The technology involved in mating two powertrains into one and become greater than the sum of their parts is just awesome. In this example you have a 2.0 petrol engine, capable of decent fuel economy on its own, mated to an automatic transmission. In addition, the car is fitted with a 12-kWh battery capable of powering the whole car for around 20 to 30 miles. With clever and innovative technology, the two between them can deliver some mind-boggling economy stats. One of the biggest differences between a Full Hybrid such as a Toyota Prius and a Plug in Hybrid like this BMW 330e is control over the battery, in the PHEV the driver has the ability to drive the car on pure electric for longer periods of time and at higher speeds. Essentially if you have a short commute this car can be driven in the same way you would a normally aspirated car but only via the battery, making it incredibly fuel efficient. Unlike a full Battery electric vehicle, the Plug in Hybrid driver doesnt need to worry about longer journeys and having to plan stops, it can completely rely on its petrol engine full time if required. You get all the benefits of EV driving (over short ranges) and none of the disadvantages, this truly is a great way to begin a journey into alternative fuelled cars. Finished in classic Alpine White and boasting a host of factory fitted options this car benefits from having the M-Sport Plus Package, sun protection glazing, 19-inch gloss black wheel upgrade and gloss black kidney grille, all of which cost a tickle over £3500 from new! All in all the monochromatic exterior look, the white body against the gloss black wheels, windows and grille look fantastic. Inside, occupants are treated to a high-quality feel and that black Vernasca leather is absolutely stunning, it goes so well with the white exterior. The 3-stage heated front seats make light work of cold mornings and is one of those features you cant stand to be without once youve experienced it. At Browns we love a car thats been well maintained and that was precisely the reason we selected this BMW for sale. Its condition is fantastic, both cosmetically and mechanically. We have also completed a full service and an RAC inspection to ensure the car is as good as it can be before finding its new home. This
