When you pause to consider that one product line - the 3 Series Saloon - accounts for fully a quarter of BMW's global sales, you begin to appreciate quite how much there is riding on this car.

Pricing now starts at just under £37,000 for the 320i Petrol; or around £40,500 for the 320d diesel - with a premium of around £1,500 more for the xDrive system.

You'll need a budget of nearly £43,000 for the 330e PHEV Petrol model. There are now just two trim levels, 'Sport' and 'M Sport' and all models now include the 'BMW Live Cockpit Plus' screen set-up, which includes cloud-based BMW Maps, over-the-air updates and an improved version of the brand's 'Intelligent Personal Assistant' voice control system.

The company's 'Parking assistant' is now standard, steering you automatically into spaces. And yoiu can upgrade it with Park View, Panorama View and 3D View functions. M Sport customers are being offered a choice of exterior upgrades, including a carbonfibre rear diffuser, a large rear spoiler for the Saloon and individual wheel designs of up to 20-inches in size.

As for safety, well as before, an optional across the range is the brand's 'Driving Assistant Professional' pack, which includes Active Cruise Control with a Stop&Go function. There's also a 'Steering and Lane Control Assistant', which helps the driver maintain their position on motorways where the lane narrows.

The 'Active Navigation' function detects when a lane change for a motorway exit is required and prepares to steer the car into that lane. The system also comprises a 'Lane Keeping Assistant' with active side collision protection and an 'Evasion Assistant'..
