BMW Philippines has rolled out the new 318i Professional, the latest version of the brand’s long-standing 3 Series sedan. It comes as the nameplate celebrates its 50th year.

The 318i Professional runs on a 2.0-liter TwinPower Turbo 4-cylinder engine with 156 horsepower and 250 Nm of torque. It’s paired with an 8-speed Steptronic automatic transmission and comes with drive modes like Comfort, Eco Pro and Sport.

BMW says the setup balances performance and fuel efficiency, with a combined fuel consumption of 6.5 liters per 100 kilometers.

It features 18-inch V-spoke alloy wheels, M Shadowline exterior trim, and redesigned LED headlights and bumpers that give it a sharper look. It also comes with Comfort Access for keyless entry, automatic tailgate operation, rain-sensing wipers, and parking aids such as Park Distance Control and a rear-view camera.

The car brings a mix of tech and refinement. It includes BMW’s Live Cockpit Plus and Widescreen Display, with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The cabin uses Vernasca leather upholstery, Dark Graphite matte trim, and ambient lighting.

Sport seats with power adjustment and memory add to comfort, while ConnectedDrive and driver-assist systems handle safety and connectivity.

Priced at P3.49 million, the BMW 318i Professional is available in limited numbers through select BMW dealerships nationwide.
