About the BMW 325 Series

The BMW 325 series, part of the broader BMW 3 Series lineup, has a rich history as a cornerstone of the compact executive car market. The BMW 3 Series itself was first introduced in 1975 with the E21 generation, but the 325 designation came into play with the second generation, the E30, which was produced from 1982 to 1994.

The 325e was introduced in the mid-1980s, with the “e” standing for “eta,” a Greek letter used in engineering to represent efficiency. The 325e featured a 2.7-liter inline-six engine designed for fuel efficiency and torque over high-end power, which was quite different from the performance-focused models of the time. In contrast, the 325i, which was introduced later, catered to drivers seeking more power with its 2.5-liter engine.

The 325i became particularly well-known and popular for its balance of performance and luxury. It was available in various body styles, including coupe, sedan, and convertible, providing options for different drivers’ preferences. Throughout the 1980s and into the early 1990s, the BMW 325 series models were praised for their build quality, handling, and driving dynamics, solidifying BMW’s reputation as a maker of driver-focused vehicles.

Over the years, the 325 series has evolved with the rest of the 3 Series, with each new generation bringing technological advancements, improved performance, and increased comfort. The 325 moniker has been used intermittently throughout the 3 Series’ production run, with newer models like the 325Ci and 325xi appearing in the E46 generation, which offered coupe and all-wheel-drive variants, respectively.

Throughout its history, the BMW 325 series has faced competition from a variety of manufacturers, but notable rivals have included the Audi A4, Mercedes-Benz C-Class, and the Lexus IS series, all of which offer a mix of performance, luxury, and prestige that appeal to similar buyer demographics.
