About This 2017 BMW 3 Series 330e iPerformance

The 2017 BMW 330e iPerformance is not your average used sedan. It sits at the intersection of sporty driving dynamics and forward-thinking hybrid technology, making it one of the more interesting pre-owned choices in Riverside, CA right now. At 88,200 miles, this vehicle is well into its stride — BMW's build quality means these cars regularly push past 150,000 miles with proper maintenance, so there is still a lot of life left here. The striking blue exterior gives it a presence on the road that matches its performance credentials, and the sedan body style keeps it versatile for commuters, families, and driving enthusiasts alike.

2017 BMW 3 Series 330e iPerformance Performance and Engine

Under the hood, the 330e iPerformance runs a 2.0L turbocharged plug-in hybrid inline-4 engine producing a healthy 248 horsepower and 310 lb-ft of torque. That torque figure is particularly impressive — the instant availability of electric torque combined with the turbocharged four-cylinder gives the 330e a responsive, punchy feel that rivals far more expensive sports sedans. Power is sent to the rear wheels through a smooth automatic transmission, preserving the rear-wheel-drive character BMW is known for.

In electric-only mode, the 330e can travel at lower speeds on battery power alone, making city driving and short commutes around Riverside genuinely efficient. When the battery is depleted, the combustion engine takes over seamlessly, and both sources of power can work together for full performance output when you need it. For Inland Empire drivers dealing with stop-and-go traffic on the 91 or I-215, the hybrid powertrain is a genuine everyday advantage.

BMW 3 Series 330e iPerformance Features and Interior

Cabin and Comfort

The 3 Series cabin has always been a benchmark for driver-focused luxury, and the 330e is no exception. Expect supportive sport seats, a high-quality materials throughout, and a driving position tuned for engagement rather than isolation. The iPerformance trim brings together BMW's hybrid technology suite with the full luxury and tech package buyers expect from the brand.

Technology

The 2017 330e typically includes BMW's iDrive infotainment system with navigation, a premium audio system, dual-zone automatic climate control, and BMW's eDrive hybrid management interface that lets you choose between Auto eDrive, Max eDrive, and Save Battery modes depending on your route and driving needs. Connectivity features like Bluetooth, USB integration, and available Apple CarPlay compatibility round out a tech-forward interior that still feels current.

BMW 3 Series 330e iPerformance Reliability and Ownership

BMW's 3 Series has earned its reputation as one of the most driver-satisfying luxury sedans ever built, and the 330e generation carries that tradition while adding plug-in hybrid efficiency. Owners of the 330e consistently praise its seamless power delivery, the quality of the interior, and the real-world fuel savings the hybrid system provides on daily commutes.

From a reliability standpoint, the 2015–2019 BMW 3 Series generation is generally regarded as more refined and dependable than some earlier iterations. As with any used European luxury vehicle, staying current on maintenance — oil changes, brake fluid, spark plugs, and 12V battery health — is important. The plug-in hybrid system itself has proven durable, but it is always worth confirming the high-voltage battery holds a reasonable charge. A pre-purchase inspection is always a smart move, and any reputable dealer should welcome that request.
