The 2013-2019 BMW 320i Gran Turismo is a unique, premium liftback that blends 3 Series driving dynamics with elevated space and practicality. Journalists often describe its styling as polarizing, mixing elements of BMW's X cars and 3 Series, though its "first-class refinement and economy" are praised. Reviewers note it is more practical than the 3 Series Touring but less sharp to drive. It is known for its higher seating position, easy access, improved view, and exceptional luggage capacity (520 liters), making it a transportation miracle. Well-suited today for those needing a comfortable, functional, and well-made all-rounder, particularly for long-distance travel and family use where practicality outweighs ultimate driving sharpness.
The BMW 320i has an average annual repair cost of $1,157 and a low reliability rating (2.5/5.0). Common issues include the valve cover gasket and timing kit. Insurance costs are average for a luxury sedan, ranging from about $137 to $187 per month for full coverage.
