Gone are the times when a man had to choose between driving a sports car all alone or settling down with a family, kids and a bumbling monstrosity dubbed ‘station wagon’. The wagons these days are anything if not fast – check out this BMW 3-Series Touring LCI (G21) and tell us otherwise.
Tweaked by aftermarket experts over at AC Schnitzer, the family wagon flaunts a front splitter, side skirt extensions and a roof spoiler at the rear end. All parts fit regardless of whether you have the M Sport package installed.
Highlighting the sporty character are assorted alloy wheels coming in sizes up to 20 inches. For suspension, you could either opt for a full coilover kit and get an adjustable ride height reduction within 20–30 mm (0.8–1.2”) or go for standard springs and get a fixed 25–35 mm (1–1.4”) of lowering.
In terms of power upgrades, the range-topping M340i spec may be bolstered to 420 PS (414 hp / 309 kW) and 600 Nm (368 lb-ft) of torque. The more affordable four-cylinder 330i spec gets 300 PS (296 hp / 221 kW) and 470 Nm (347 lb-ft). The 330e PHEV can be persuaded to churn out 340 PS (335 hp / 250 kW) and 480 Nm (354 lb-ft) of torque.
A sports exhaust system rounds off the list. All components can be purchased either as a bundle (typically discounted) or individually.
