BMW 3 Series Station Wagon

If you hire a BMW 3 Series Touring, you’ll be getting the keys to one of today’s most acclaimed and practical estate cars. It is certainly a stylish and prestigious way to increase your load-carrying capacity.

The acclaim comes from the BMW’s blend of inspiring driving dynamics and the overall quality of the equipment and materials used throughout. That’s because BMW’s Touring models are designed to retain the handling prowess and performance of the saloon and GT versions.

They’ve been able to do this while providing one of the largest trunks in their class. All cars come with a powered tailgate. The glass section can be opened separately for small items. Under the trunk floor is a large compartment for extra stowage – that’s because the 3 Series uses run-flat tires so there’s no need for a spare wheel in that space. The trunk can be enlarged by folding the back seats, which split in a 40;20;40 arrangement, giving plenty of load-carrying flexibility.

These BMW station wagons are well-engineered all-rounders: the five-door 320d Touring model, with its powerful and economic 2.0-liter turbodiesel, can combine a 0-60mph time of under eight seconds with a fuel efficiency of over 60mpg.
