Pros Cons of BMW 3 Series Gran Limousine

Pros

  • Looks like an executive sedan
  • The long wheelbase really provides a lot of space
  • The 3 Series GL does not have much competition

Cons

  • Could have been generous with features
  • Suspension is a bit taut
  • The 3 GL misses out on some creature comforts like rear seat controls for the media

Verdict

India is the first right hand drive market anywhere in the world to get the car and of course the focus here is on the extra space inside the cabin, specifically for people in the rear seat. The 3GL is promising to offer more comfort at price which may not be beyond your reach and as a chauffeur driven car it is right up there in the segment. The 3 series sedan starts at ₹ 42.30 lakh (ex-showroom). In comparison this long wheelbase model is expected to be priced between ₹ 50 and Rs 54 lakh.

Pros Cons of BMW X5

Pros

  • Stunning to look at and drop dead gorgeous
  • Puts out more than 500 bhp

Verdict

The latest BMW X5 sets a new standard, excelling in every aspect. Globally celebrated and favored in India, it elevates the driving experience for all occupants, including rear-seat passengers who can enjoy optional touchscreens and charging ports for their devices. The emphasis on infotainment is evident, enhancing the overall in-car experience. Additionally, this model surpasses its predecessor in comfort, promising a more luxurious journey.
