BMW has revealed full details on the facelifted version of its 3 Series sedan.

BMW has revealed full details on the facelifted version of its 3 Series sedan.

It's been three years since the seventh-generation of BMW's popular executive sedan debuted here — find out all about it with our in-depth global debut, and Singapore launch stories.As an LCI/facelift, the car's footprint does not expand and it remains the same size overall. The styling has been cleaned up with the lower kink in the headlamps now eliminated, and the bodywork surrounding the grille area is now straight-edged, lacking the curved flourishes of the pre-facelift model.

Keen drivers might have a tinge of sadness, since all versions of the 3 Series now come standard with an eight-speed automatic transmission — there are no manual versions, even overseas.

That could mean VES penalties in comparison to its key rival, the Mercedes-Benz C-Class, which debuted earlier this year with only mild-hybrid versions here.
