April 20, 2005 BMW has announced a wagon variant of the new 3 Series Sedan that will make its public debut at the Frankfurt Motor Show in September. The “Touring” shares a strong visual link with the 3 Series Sedan, largely identical to the Sedan from the front to the A-pillars. From the A-pillars back the car's sporting, almost coupe-like silhouette hides the immense degree of practicality for families and professionals seeking more space, grace and style. The fourth-generation BMW 3 Series Touring has been developed as an entirely different and unique car in parallel to the Sedan.

The enlarged, more flexible and practical luggage compartment blends harmoniously with the Touring's overall style. A sleek roofline tapers down gently and smoothly to the large tailgate, while the shoulder line moves up slightly in a pincer-like fashion to give the Touring a taut, muscular appearance.

This means the glasshouse offers a coupé-like appearance, accentuating the overall sporting presence.

The wide D-pillar guides the eye to the rear axle, clearly accentuating the car's rear-wheel drive heritage in the process.

External styling boldly announces an exceptional harmony of elegance, dynamism, and sportiness, while inside the accent is firmly on ease of use and flexibility.

The fourth-generation BMW 3 Series Touring has been developed as an entirely different and unique car in parallel to the Sedan.

The Touring is typically BMW both in its looks and performance. Its lithe dimensions hide a roomy and practical interior.

The Touring is 42 mm longer, at 4,520 mm, than the previous model, 78 mm wider at 1,817 mm and 9 mm higher at 1,418 mm. The wheelbase is stretched a further 35 mm to 2,760 mm.

Occupants both the front and rear enjoy extra space and comfort, while the enlarged luggage area grows to 460-litres (an increase of 25-litres).
