One of many contributing factors which will allow the 520d with the weight of around the equivalent of a 320d(F30). The larger engine models will use the axle from the 7er in regards to the Dynamic Drive option.

So there will be no more z4? That's what I meant by it. Surely bmw has a new one in the pipeline or a Z5, which will basically be the Z4 but more expensive because 5 > 4

I sure hope they dont give the next 3 series a big gaping grill like that. I hate the big grills of 5 and 7 series

But for sedan, 4 years is right. E90M was MY2008, MY2009, MY2010, ending with MY2011. |

There are two independent statement from Executives at both companies that answer two questions no one has asked at the same time. Is the platform scalable? - Yes just as many are today. - How flexible are the modules? There are specific hard points that cannot be adjusted so this will remain a longitudinal, Rear Wheel Drive basis for sports cars. AWD, and most importantly, hybrid AWD is easily accommodated. As long as the flywheel is facing the right way, numerous layouts are easily implemented for optimal placement. |

Went over the thread but could not find an specific answer.
The G05 X5 coming in 2018 means it will be a 2019 model? Since the thread makes mention to a 5 year life on the current model and was produce in 2013 as a 2014 model. |

Whoa, does that mean that the 3 series will be even bigger?
I hope they don't grow the wheelbase even more (maybe shorten an inch to improve handling?). I'm sure owners will fire back at me, but I think the F30 is too boaty already. Last edited by rainfall; 06-22-2016 at 10:38 PM.. |

What is the "that" you refer to above? The fact that a new 3 Series is in the pipeline? Because that's essentially always the case.
And for what it is worth, I believe it has been mentioned by insiders that the new 3 and 5 Series will remain essentially the same size as the current models. |
