BMW Malaysia Introduces New Plug-in Hybrid 330e

The all new BMW330e

The new plug-in hybrid BMW330e comes in Alpine White, Mediterranean Blue, Mineral Grey and Black Sapphire.

Step into the future with the German automaker’s latest hybrid creation—BMW330e. If you take a glimpse at the exterior, the iconic sedan remains mostly unchanged, but a closer look at the left front wing will see an additional charging socket that lights up to indicate the flow of energy once the charging process begins.

Road trips are made fuss-free as there are 19 partner charging stations throughout KL, Selangor, Melaka, and Johor, which are easily accessible with your ChargeNow card.

A charge usually takes about five hours, which can be done with just any domestic power socket. But if you prefer a quicker charge, the BMW i Wallbox Pro, which speeds the charging time to 3.5 hours, can be installed at your home.

Thanks to its iPerformance technology, this driving machine is also incredibly low in fuel consumption, requiring a mere 2.1 litres for every 100km travelled.

Running on electric drive alone, the hybrid driving machine is able to travel up to a top speed of 120km/h.

The new 330e operates on three different modes of drive: the zero-emission-purely-electric Max eDrive, the default Auto eDrive mode where the combustion engine works in tandem with the electric motor, and last but not least, the Save Battery mode, which saves up the remaining battery charge for rainy days.

Aside from that, the vehicle also comes with a parking assistance function with automatic steering, which is helpful when it comes to both parallel and perpendicular parking. For those who find these types of parking challenging, your life will be made much easier with this high-performing smart car. In addition, with the fixed on-board SIM card, you can now send e-mails from within the vehicle during anytime, anywhere.
