Spy shots: Facelifted BMW 3-series

Now that all of its siblings have been introduced over the past two years, the plain Jane BMW 3-Series sedan has slipped off for a nip/tuck rejuvenation session. Not much will change, but the car is expected to get new headlights with more prominent “angel eyes,” a higher hood, LED tail lights, and a revised interior. It will also get a wider grill, a feature from the CS Coupe that’s been finding its way on BMW concepts and redesigns.

Now that all of its siblings have been introduced over the past two years, the plain Jane BMW 3-Series sedan has slipped off for a nip/tuck rejuvenation session. Not much will change, but the car is expected to get new headlights with more prominent “angel eyes,” a higher hood, LED tail lights, and a revised interior. It will also get a wider grill, a feature from the CS Coupe that’s been finding its way on BMW concepts and redesigns.

Under that higher hood will be a new selection of engines that won’t include BMW’s start/stop technology just yet, but should up the stakes in the frugality department in terms of gas and CO2. Expect a variable twin turbo 204 bhp 4-cylinder diesel that puts out 138g of CO2 per km.
