It’s time for a diesel vs electric showdown!
We’ve got Mat in a tuned last-generation BMW 335d Touring, and it’s going up against a new Tesla Model 3 and a BMW M340d!
So let’s see how the cars compare. Starting with the 335d, it’s powered by a 3-litre straight-six twin-turbo diesel that’s had a stage two tune. As a result, the 313hp and 730Nm power output have been increased to 386hp and 812Nm! Power is sent to all four wheels via an 8-speed automatic gearbox, and it tips the scales at 1,735kg.
On the far side, we have the M340d. It’s packing a 3-litre straight-six twin-turbo diesel that can produce 340hp and 700Nm of torque. Power is sent to all four wheels via an 8-speed automatic gearbox, and it tips the scales at 1,870kg.
Then finally we have the Tesla. It’s the long-range edition, and it comes equipped with two motors that can put down 490hp and 490Nm. Naturally, power is sent to all four wheels, and it weighs in at 1,840kg.
So how will this one play out? Could the tuned BMW snatch it? Or will it be an easy win for the Tesla? There’s only one way to find out… LET’S RACE!
