You find the big kidneys of the BMW 4 Series a bit over it, but still want to stand out? Then the illuminated radiator grille Iconic Glow might be something for your BMW 3 Series.
The kidney grille of recent BMW models has already stir up a lot of dust. The rabbit teeth with which the 4 Series has to go through life no longer makes the fans gag. But it is not because something gets used to, that it suddenly becomes beautiful. And BMW just pushes on. As with the strange nose of the i Vision Circular Concept which debuted at the Munich IAA in September 2021. And like Iconic Glow for the radiator grille of the BMW 3 Series.
That Iconic Glow is not new: the illuminated radiator grille in 2019 debuted on the third generation of the BMW X6. Now the BMW 3 Series is also available with this feature. Attention: this is not the European version, but the Gran Limousine. That is a variant of the BMW 3 developed for the Indian market, blessed with an extended wheelbase that adds 11 centimeters for the passengers in the back. And it is now available as an Iconic Edition. With Iconic Glow.

In addition to the illuminated grille, the more luxuriously packaged Chennai Indian-built BMW 3 Series Gran Limousine Iconic Edition also comes with crystal shift levers found on higher-end BMW models, with chrome design keys for the exterior and upgraded materials for the interior. The Iconic Editon is offered as a 190 hp 320Ld and as a 260 hp BMW 330Li, with a local purchase price of (converted) 63,000 and 61,300 euros (that diesel is indeed more expensive).
There are currently no plans to introduce such Iconic Edition for the European market, based on our BMW 3 Series. But never say never. Because in Australia there was also a BMW 3 Iconic Edition limited to 200 copies for a while…
