The 2020 G20 BMW 3 Series model list looks to have been leaked and with it, any hope of a manual transmission in the US has been dashed. Earlier this week Spanish site Motor.es leaked what appeared to be a legit listing of the new 3 Series models including engines and transmissions.
What’s notable is that two models destined for the US at launch (the 330i and the M340i) will not be offered with manuals. There’s a rumor we’ll once again see the 320i which could the manual back as it’s offered with one elsewhere. But with take rates being so low in the US, we’re not holding our breath.
