The new BMW 3 Series had an unparalleled model diversity. The fifth body variant was launched with the 3 Series Touring in 1995, following on from the Sedan (1990), Coupé (1991), Convertible (1993) and Compact (1994). Starting in 1997, BMW expanded the product range by an entry-level model in a lower price bracket - the BMW 316i Touring.
