It kept most of its characteristics, and added many evolutions, especially in terms of engines. At launch, it was the smallest model manufactured by BMW, which produced the 5 series, then the 6 and 7 series. It is also the best-selling BMW model in the world. The first 3 series appeared in 1975 to replace the 1502, 1602, 1802 and 2002 (E10/E20), of which it took over some engines. At launch, it was only available with a two-door body. It was also available as a convertible, bodied by Baur. It was designed by Paul Bracq who took up the general style of the 5 E12 series. As for the interior, it was particularly large for a car of this size. The first models were the 316, 318, 320 carburetor and 320i mechanical injection Bosh K-Jetronic, all equipped with four-cylinder engines of the M10 family. A new 1,990 cm3 six-cylinder engine was introduced in 1977 on the 320. This carburetor engine then develops 122 hp and replaces the old four-cylinder 320 and 320i. This 6-cylinder version is often referred to as the 320/6 in common usage in order to differentiate it from the 4-cylinder version (sometimes referred to as 320/4 by analogy). Then a second six-cylinder block (type M20B23) comes to top the range, a 2,316 cm3 with K-Jetronic injection of 143 hp on the 323i. A slight restyling was carried out in 1979 which, without losing its general line, made it more aggressive. Inside, the center console was modified, as well as the design and instrumentation. The most powerful models, 320i, 320/6 and 323i were identified at first glance thanks to their four-headlight grille with front monogram, although some 4-cylinder models were also equipped with them. The 323i also had a dual exhaust outlet, ventilated front disc and solid disc brakes at the rear. New interior trims appeared in 1980 to replace the old ones, the shape of the head restraints was also revised. In 1980, the 1,573 cm3 engine of the 316 was replaced by the 1,766 cm3 of the 318 but with a lower power of 90 chebaux, then the 318 was replaced by the 318i ("i" as injection, in this case Bosch's K-Jetronic injection). The 315 made its entry-level debut by taking over the 1,600 cm3 engine of the old 316. At the end of 1982, the new 3 series E30 replaced the E21, only the model 315 was produced until 1983. The E21 series was a huge success: more than 1,300,000 cars were built, all models combined.

About BMW

ChatGPT
Bayerische Motoren Werke, commonly known as BMW, has a rich history dating back to its founding in 1916. Initially established as an aircraft-engine manufacturer during World War I, BMW faced restrictions on aircraft production after the war. In response, the company shifted its focus to motorcycle production in 1923, marking the beginning of its involvement in the automotive industry. Subsequently, BMW entered the world of automobiles in 1928 by producing the DIXI, essentially a licensed version of the Austin 7 from the Austin Motor Company.

In the 1930s, BMW began to establish itself as a manufacturer of elegant and high-performance vehicles. One notable model from this era is the BMW 327, introduced in 1937. The 327 was available as both a coupe and a cabriolet, showcasing the brand's commitment to luxury and style. Additionally, BMW achieved success in sports car racing during this period, particularly with the BMW 328. The 328, which debuted in 1936, became renowned for its performance and aerodynamics. BMW campaigned the 328 in various racing events, including the prestigious Mille Miglia, where the company introduced several aerodynamic specials.

The post-war era proved challenging for BMW, and the company faced financial difficulties that nearly led to bankruptcy. However, BMW managed to recover and rebuild, eventually becoming one of the leading premium automotive brands globally.

As the 1960s unfolded, BMW further solidified its reputation for producing sports-oriented and luxurious vehicles. In 1968, the BMW 2002 was introduced, marking the birth of the "New Class" of compact, sporty sedans. The 2002 gained popularity for its agile handling and performance, laying the foundation for BMW's sporty image.

Moving into the 1970s, BMW expanded its lineup with the introduction of the E9 platform, which included the iconic BMW 3.0 CS coupe. The E9 series showcased BMW's commitment to blending performance and luxury. In 1972, the M1, BMW's first mid-engined sports car, made its debut. The M1 was initially developed as a racing car but later became a road-going model. The M1 laid the groundwork for BMW's high-performance M series.

In the late 1970s, the BMW E24 6 Series was introduced, offering a combination of luxury and performance. The 6 Series included models like the 630CS, 633CSi, and 635CSi, becoming a symbol of sophistication and driving pleasure.

Through these milestones and a commitment to innovation and performance, BMW has evolved into a powerhouse in the automotive industry, maintaining its status as one of the leading premium brands worldwide.
