The sleek silhouette of the BMW 3 Series Touring exudes sporting elegance, down to
the last detail. Short overhangs, a long bonnet, pronounced swage lines along the sides
and the elongated roofine lend this car its confdent and dynamic appeal. The subtle
interplay of lines adds special interest, creating a modern design that appeals both to
the sporty driver and to people who value making an elegant impression.
The designers of the BMW 3 Series Touring have succeeded in re-interpreting an established
design language. The model’s characteristic Touring proportions have been retained, but
interpreted in a fresh, modern way. This approach can be seen especially clearly in the gently
rising double swage line, the airy occupant cell and the powerful, athletic rear.
