BMW introduces locally assembled BMW 3 Series Gran Turismo
BMW Group Malaysia introduced the new locally assembled BMW 3 Series Gran Turismo today, the 14 BMW variant to be assembled in the country. The locally assembled BMW 3 Series Gran Turismo will be offered in two variants – BMW 328i Gran Turismo and BMW 320d Gran Turismo.
In introducing the new variant, Dr. Gerhard Pils, Chief Executive Officer of BMW Group Malaysia said, "Today, we introduce yet another exceptional BMW model for our Malaysian customers which is built right here in Malaysia. As an addition to our strong portfolio of locally assembled premium vehicles, the new BMW 3 Series Gran Turismo further underlines our commitment to this country which has been our home for over ten years."
Dr. Pils further added, the new BMW 3 Series Gran Turismo will allow Malaysians accessibility to an even wider range of product choices from the premium carmaker. Featuring the perfect combination of a Sedan's dynamic sporting genes with the practicality and versatility of a Touring, the new BMW 3 Series Gran Turismo carries qualities which are backed by a palpable increase in space and driving comfort.
Its aesthetic and emotional appeal also boasts a distinctive presence on the road and offers similarly pronounced driving pleasure as both an elegant business carriage and a dynamic, comfortable tourer.
"As the leader in the premium automotive segment, we at BMW Group Malaysia are constantly seeking opportunities to further optimise the delivery of our premium vehicles to customers throughout the country. We are confident that the new locally assembled BMW 3 Series Gran Turismo will continue to provide our existing and new customers with the complete premium ownership experience of owning a vehicle from the BMW Group, and it will once again prove to be a strong contributor to our success here in Malaysia."
As a completely independent concept within the BMW 3 Series segment, the new BMW 3 Series Gran Turismo has a deliberately coupé-like vehicle design and extraordinarily generous amount of space.
These are put together in a lightweight construction concept which also includes Air Breathers and an active rear spoiler – the first of its kind on a BMW – which reduces lift at touring speeds and allows a sense of visual lightness.
Meanwhile, its upgraded cabin size, raised seating position, and increased legroom for rear passengers allow the BMW 3 Series Gran Turismo to deliver unbeatable freedom of movement and an impressive feeling of space.
The BMW 328i Gran Turismo will be introduced in the highly popular Sport Line, while the new BMW 320d Gran Turismo will be offered in Luxury Line.
The BMW 3 Series Gran Turismo is available in Alpine White, Black Sapphire and Mineral Grey, while Melbourne Red, Glacier Silver and Midnight Blue are made exclusively available to the new locally assembled BMW 328i Gran Turismo.
The luxury sportiness of the new BMW 328i Gran Turismo is further emphasised by Leather Dakota Black with Red highlighted leather upholstery while the exclusive Alpine White variant is also available with Dakota Coral Red with Black highlighted leather upholstery. On the other hand, the Imperial Blue with Leather Dakota Black Luxury is available exclusively with the new BMW 320d Gran Turismo. – June 11, 2014.
