We here at Thompson BMW have no trouble admitting: we have a whole lot of love for our charming compact luxury vehicle, the 2016 BMW 3 Series.

 

And, as it turns out, we're far from the only ones who feel as we do.

 

It seems we can also count AutoGuide.com Road Test Editor, Mike Schlee, among the ever-growing list of 3 Series supporters. Hear him pile on the praise in the clip below:

There are myriad ways one can configure the 3 Series. Offered in sedan and wagon body styles, it's available on one of four unique…

 

Staggering style. Outstanding engine options. And a cabin equipped with just about every creature comfort under the sun. This is what the all-new 2016 BMW 7 Series is all about.

 

Have you had an opportunity to orient yourself to it? Well, if not, Auto Trader UK Senior Road Tester, Paul Bond, is here to provide you with the pertinent details. Take a moment to hear him out:

One of the first things you'll notice about the 7 Series is its array of astounding, tech-driven amenities.

 

If you're searching for a vehicle that seamlessly blends style, sport and top-shelf luxury into one incredible package, you needn't look any further than the 2016 BMW 6 Series.

 

What exactly makes this auto so astounding? Cars.com critic, Mike Hanley, is here to fill you in:

A pair of powertrains comprise the 6 Series catalog. And you really can't go wrong with either.

 

Even the entry-level option is quite extraordinary, its turbo 3.0-liter inline six-cylinder kicking out a colossal 315 horsepower and 330 pound-feet of torque.

As sales continue to rise, and electric vehicles become more commonplace, the demand for a more strategically planned infrastructure, to facilitate longer distance EV travel, also grows. BMW first sought to address the issue in June of 2014, with the initial phase of their ChargeNow DC Fast program, which brought about the installation of 100 EVgo charging stations.

As part of its ongoing commitment to the EV segment, BMW announced yesterday an expansion to the original program which will bring about the implementation of 500 additional charging stations by the end of 2018.

 

If you've yet to meet our sport-tuned SUV, the 2015 BMW X5 M, then boy, oh boy, are you in for one heck of a treat today.

 

And here to deliver all the need-to-know details are our friends from MotorWeek. Click "play" on the clip below to hear what they have to say:

Beneath the SUV's snout, a turbo 4.4-liter V8 engine holds court with an eight-speed automatic transmission. Together, they twist out a truly tremendous 567 horsepower and 553 pound-feet of torque.

 

A veritable living legend of the compact crossover class, the BMW X3 is no doubt one of our favorites within the fleet here at Thompson BMW.

 

What's more, the SUV is evidently a darling of the folks at Auto Trader UK, too! They recently took the 2016 X3 for a test drive, and were blown away by what they found. Get the full scoop from them right here:

This machine's alluring attributes are many. Chief among them is its altogether incredible assortment of engine options.

The entry-level luxury sedan segment is in a state of all-out war. New competition is pouring in from all corners of the ring to try to wrestle the BMW 3 Series three-decade crown. But with a new visual and powertrain update for the 2016 model year, in addition to this car's stellar reviews, that will be a nigh impossible task.

We hate to say it, but summer's almost over. But don't despair! Fall means beautiful foliage, yummy pumpkin treats, fun holidays and reacquainting yourself with some super cozy sweaters. BMW is ready!

Imagine how lovely a new 3 Series model would look driving down the streets in the midst of leaves that are turning from green to red and gold. And with three varieties including the Sedan, Sports Wagon, and Gran Turismo, you can have a…

When it comes to fun-to-drive, top-of-the-line vehicles, BMW makes quite a fair few. They make sedans, coupes, convertibles, SAVs, EVs, sports and race cars, and motorcycles. If there's one model that binds all of that together, it's the flagship sedan, the 2016 7 Series.
