About BMW 318i
The BMW 318i was manufactured and marketed by the German automaker, BMW, in the 1990s. Introduced in 1989, the BMW 318i was one of the members of the BMW E30 series, which made its debut at the Frankfurt Motor Show in September 1987. The E30 series was aimed at replacing the previous 325e models. The style of the 1987 model remained relatively unchanged until the release of the 318i.
The BMW 318i is a luxury sedan with major updates in many aspects. In terms of the body style, it became available as a four-door sedan and five-door station wagon other than the two-door sedan and Baur convertible body types of its E21 forerunners. Designed by the BMW engineer Max Reisböck, he came up with the idea of touring body type in the garage of a friend. Later, the production of the body type started in 1987. Except for the styling features, the BMW 318i used the four-cylinder engine, which underwent significant improvement during the model years. Equipped with the new M40 and Bosch Motronic fuel injection, the BMW 318i increased the power from 77 kW (103 hp) at 5,800 rpm to 83 kW (111 hp) at 5,500 rpm. The torque rose to 162 Nm, compared with 145 Nm before. In terms of the transmission, 5-speed Getrag 240 was used to suit M40 and M42 engines.
