BMW 3 Series
Refreshed and improved last year, BMW's compact sedan remains unchanged for 2026, and the plug-in hybrid model is still not returning. Output ranges from 255 to 523 horsepower. Of note is the addition of an exclusive M340i xDrive 50 Jahre Edition, limited to 100 units in Canada, to celebrate the car’s 50th anniversary and six previous generations. Incidentally, the eighth generation of the 3 Series is expected to be unveiled in 2026 and launched as a 2027 model.
