26. BMW 3 SERIES

Price From £26k (est) On sale Late 2018

IT doesn’t seem that long since BMW unveiled its current 3 Series, but the compact executive class moves fast, and the all-new car is due to land in 2018.

As our exclusive image previews, it will feature evolutionary lines. It’s set to use hi-tech lightweight construction inspired by the latest 7 Series, plus efficient three and four-cylinder engines, potent sixcylinders and a plug-in hybrid. BMW is believed to be working on a Tesla-rivalling electric version, too.
