After more than three decades and 1.7 millions cars on the road, BMW brought out the 2019 3 series Touring, the sixth generation of the model. The new station wagon is longer by 76 mm (3 in), reaching a total of 4709 mm (15.4 ft) compared to its predecessor. The wheelbase was increased by 41 mm (1.61 in), thus giving more room for the occupants. The trunk has been increased to a total volume of 500 liters (17.65 cu-ft), which can triple by folding down the rear seats to a total of 1510 liters (53.3 cu-ft).

Inside, the premium feeling is obvious due to the high quality of the materials used, especially if the vehicle is fitted with upper trim levels. A panoramic glass roof is offered as an option to increase the light and atmosphere inside. For the infotainment system, BMW added its newest generation of iDrive.

For the headlights, BMW offers LED fitted as standard with another upgraded LED system available for extra money and, for those who really wants to transform night into a day, the Laserlight, which can light-up the road ahead up to 530 m (1739 ft).

For the engine compartment, BMW installed a base unit with four-cylinders, a 150 hp turbodiesel. The top-version is the M340i with a six-cylinder 3.0-liter unit, which offers 374 hp. An all-wheel-drive system (called xDrive) is available only for engines with power from 190 hp up.
