I have shortlisted the Mercedes AMG GLC 43 Coupe and the BMW M340i. My yearly driving will be about 8,000 km. I want a proper ‘wow’ factor in the car. Which would be the better buy?
The Mercedes-Benz GLC Coupe AMG 43 is substantially more expensive than a BMW M340i, and it certainly delivers the 'wow' factor that you're looking for, in terms of its design both outside and inside. So there's no contest between the two. If you're comfortable spending around Rs 1.15 crore for a GLC Coupe, go for it.
On the other hand, while the BMW M340i won't 'wow' you in terms of its looks or interior like the AMG, its 3-litre six-cylinder turbo-petrol's stonking performance will surely leave you grinning, and for about Rs 30 lakh less than the GLC Coupe, it delivers unmatched value.

Hi, I would like your advice based on my usage. I want to upgrade my garage to two city cars and one highway car. My current city car is a Swift diesel AMT with a usage of 1,200 km per month, and my highway car is a Kia Seltos with a usage of 1,000 km per month. I now want to replace both cars and get two EVs for city use, namely the Tiago EV and the Sierra EV. For highway use, I am looking at the BMW M340i because it has adaptive suspension. Do you think it is comfortable for long highway journeys? Please suggest suitable cars for my usage.
The Tiago EV is a sensible, affordable city runabout that works very well for errands and short urban commutes, and that’s exactly how we would recommend you use it. The Tata Sierra EV, meanwhile, is still some time away – launch is expected in 2026 – but on paper it promises a strong combination of space, range and features, and should be priced competitively when it arrives. However, it’s too early to comment on how it will drive as we haven’t driven the production car yet.
The BMW M340i is a very quick, engaging sports sedan that can double up as a daily driver, and the adaptive suspension has definitely improved its usability. That said, it still feels a bit firm and always “on its toes”, so it isn’t the most relaxed choice if you prioritise long, laid-back highway cruising.
One of our favourite sporty everyday sedans in this space is the Audi S5; it offers strong performance but with a more compliant ride and more easy-going manners, so it’s worth considering as your highway car.

Hello, Autocar. I am currently in the market to buy a new car and am thoroughly confused between the M340i and the new 5 Series. I will be upgrading from a Mercedes-Benz C 300d AMG Line diesel. While the M340i has the beastly B58, the thing holding me back is that it doesn't feel like a segment upgrade compared to my current C-Class. With the 5 Series, the size and opulence make it feel like a solid upgrade, but it has pretty much the same power as my C and lesser torque. Thanks.
Your decision on which BMW car to buy depends on what you value more. The BMW 5 Series, as you rightly identified, is the larger and more opulent car. It is roomier inside, too, but it is essentially a model that prioritises comfort over driving thrills. The engine feels strong when pushed, but the overarching experience is that of a car designed to deliver a calming experience.
The BMW M340i is the performance choice. The B58 engine is one of the modern-day greats and will thrill you for years to come. Slick handling and an improved ride with the facelift make the M340i hard to fault as an everyday fun car. Sure, it's no larger than the Mercedes-Benz C 300d you are switching from, but if driving pleasure is high up on your priority list, the M340i is easily the BMW for you.

My budget is ₹70-80 lakh and my preferences are luxury and performance. Which vehicle should I buy - the BMW 3 Series or the Mercedes-Benz C-Class?
The BMW 3 Series in its 330Li guise offers a fantastic balance of luxury and performance. The long-wheelbase aids more room in the rear seat, the quality of materials is good, and the performance is excellent. If you are a keen driver, the 330Li will impress you, but if you also want to be chauffeured in the back seat, it can do that too.

My budget is ₹70-80 lakh. My preferences are luxury and performance. Which vehicle should I buy between the BMW 3 Series and the Mercedes-Benz C-Class?
If you are going to be behind the wheel more often, the BMW M340i is excellent and has a decent rear seat for occasional chauffeur-driven drives too. However, if you want a better rear seat experience, the BMW 330Li is very good too. It is almost as good as the M340i, but thanks to the long wheelbase, it gets a spacious and comfy rear seat as well.
The Mercedes-Benz C-Class offers a more luxurious interior, but the driving experience is much better in the BMW.
