BMW 3 Series Gran Limousine Review

It's amazing that BMW has managed to make this 3 Series Gran Limousine feel so different in character from the standard 3 Series. Thanks to its soft suspension and body roll, this is perhaps the first 3 Series you don't want to drive quickly, but instead works really well as a car to be chauffeur-driven in. Ride comfort is truly limousine plush, and space in the back is more than some bigger luxury sedans. There are other touches like the panoramic sunroof and additional bits of chrome and ambient lighting to make it feel a bit more special, but we'd have liked to see maybe rear sunblinds for that added limo experience. The 320Ld diesel feels like the sensible choice because of its greater fuel economy, but the 330Li petrol offers much better refinement. If you will drive even occassionally, choose the standard 3 Series, but if you have a driver and don't mind a premium of Rs 4-4.5 lakh, the Gran Limousine is a compelling choice.
