The newly updated BMW 3 Series long wheelbase diesel variants are now available in India, starting at an attractive price of Rs 62 lakh (ex-showroom). Just last month, BMW unveiled the 2025 3 Series LWB but only revealed the pricing for the petrol variant at that time. Now, fans of diesel can rejoice as the diesel-powered version has been refreshed and is ready to hit the roads.
This 3 Series LWB diesel packs a punch with its impressive 190hp, powered by a robust 2.0-litre engine. Buyers can choose between two exciting trims – M Sport and M Sport Pro – giving you options to match your style. However, it’s worth noting that the top-spec diesel variant has seen a slight price increase of Rs 1 lakh.
Here’s a detailed look at the complete price list for the highly anticipated 2025 BMW 3 Series LWB in India:
BMW 3 Series LWB Price (Ex-showroom) | |
Variant | Price |
330Li M Sport | Rs 62.60 lakh |
320Ld M Sport | Rs 62 lakh |
320Ld M Sport Pro | Rs 65 lakh |
The 3 Series LWB diesel remains a standout option, available in both M Sport and M Sport Pro trims. However, it’s important to note that BMW has not reintroduced the M Sport Pro petrol variant that was previously offered. While the price for the M Sport Pro diesel trim has seen an increase of Rs 1 lakh, it’s worth mentioning that the base price for the M Sport diesel model stays unchanged. This makes it an excellent choice for those seeking quality and performance without significant price hikes.
What’s New in the 2025 BMW 3 Series LWB Diesel?

For 2025, BMW has made impressive upgrades to the 3 Series long wheelbase that you simply can’t ignore. With adaptive LED headlamps, a sleek gloss black rear diffuser, and fresh satin aluminium trims on the outside, this car looks better than ever. Inside, the new flat-bottomed steering wheel and redesigned AC vents instantly elevate your driving experience. The interior now boasts a stylish Aluminium Rhombicle Anthracite finish on select trims, enhancing the overall aesthetic.
Importantly, BMW has streamlined its naming by dropping the ‘Gran Limousine’ suffix; it’s now just called the 3 Series long wheelbase—easy to remember and impactful. Plus, it retains standout features like a whopping 14.9-inch curved infotainment display and a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster that keep you connected and informed while driving. Enjoy comfort with electrically adjustable seats featuring extendable thigh support, along with a panoramic sunroof for an open feel and tri-zone automatic climate control to ensure everyone stays comfortable.

BMW 3 Series LWB Diesel: Specifications and Details

Beneath its sleek exterior, the 3 Series LWB is powered by an impressive 190hp, 400Nm, 2.0-litre turbo-diesel engine that’s paired with an efficient 8-speed torque converter automatic gearbox. This combination drives the rear wheels and allows the car to achieve a remarkable 0-100kph sprint in just 7.6 seconds for the diesel variant. If you’re looking for more power, there’s also a robust option of a 258hp, 2.0-litre twin-turbo petrol engine available. When it comes to competition in India, the BMW 3 Series LWB stands strong against notable rivals like the Mercedes-Benz C-Class, Audi A4, and Lexus ES. Among these options, only the C-Class offers a diesel variant as well—making this BMW a compelling choice for those seeking performance and luxury combined. Plus, with local assembly at BMW’s Chennai plant, you’re not just getting quality; you’re also supporting local industry.
It’s great to see BMW bringing the diesel option back for the 3 Series LWB, especially for buyers who prefer efficiency and long-distance comfort. The 190hp 2.0-litre engine sounds promising, but it would be interesting to know how it compares in real-world performance to its petrol counterpart.
