BMW E30 Wallpapers

The BMW E30 is the second generation of the BMW 3 Series, which was produced from 1982 to 1994 and replaced the E21 3 Series. The model range included 2-door sedan and convertible body styles and the first 3 Series to be built in 4-door sedan and wagon/estate body styles. It was powered by four-cylinder petrol, six-cylinder petrol, and six-cylinder diesel engines, the latter a first for the 3 Series. The BMW E30 325iX model was the first BMW to have an all-wheel drive.

The first BMW M3 model was built on the E30 platform and was powered by the high-revving BMW S14 four-cylinder petrol engine, which produced 175 kW (235 bhp) in its final iteration. The BMW Z1 roadster was also based on the E30 platform. Following the launch of the E36 3 Series in 1990, the E30 began to be phased out.

The BMW E30 3 Series development began in July 1976, with styling being developed under chief designer Claus Luthe with exterior styling led by Boyke Boyer. In 1978, the final design was approved, with design freeze (cubing process) being completed in 1979. BMW's launch film for the BMW E30 shows the design process, including Computer-aided design (CAD), crash testing, and wind-tunnel testing. The car was released at the end of November 1982.

Externally, the BMW E30's appearance is very similar to twin headlight versions of its E21 predecessor. However, there are various detail changes in styling to the BMW E30. Significant differences to the E21 include the interior and a revised suspension, the latter to reduce the oversteer for which the E21 was criticized.

Initially, the BMW E30 used carryover four-cylinder (M10) and six-cylinder (M20) petrol engines from its E21 predecessor. Over the production run, new families of four-cylinder petrol engines were introduced, and the six-cylinder engine received various upgrades. A six-cylinder diesel engine was introduced in both naturally aspirated and turbocharged forms.
