The gap between domestic and imported BMW 320 in detail.
● Glass brand: different according to the origin.
In addition to the manufacturing process, let’s take a look at the window suppliers of these two models. As for the window suppliers, the 320i front windshield and skylight glass are made of products from PILKINGTON (pilkington) in Britain, the rear windshield is made of products from SISECAM brand, and the side windows are made of products from our own brand Fuyao Glass. This performance also proves that Fuyao Glass’s development and strength in the same industry have been recognized.
The window glass of 320Li adopts Fuyao brand except the rear door triangle window. For the glass brand, it is believed that more depends on the supplier selected by the manufacturer, which is also related to the location of the factory. I believe there will not be much difference in actual cost performance.
● Tire and hub: The hub styles are different, but the tire specifications and hub sizes are exactly the same.


Tires and wheels are also a focus of our attention. The tyre size of the two cars are exactly the same, both of which are 225/55 R16, but the 16-inch wheels look a little less atmospheric, and the styles of the two cars are also different. The style is more about personal preference. The two brands of tires are different. The 320i adopts Tairan and the 320Li adopts P7 tires. The characteristics of these two tires are biased towards comfort, so there should not be much difference in use.
● Comparison of spare parts: The suppliers of spare parts are different due to different places of origin.

Although the supply of accessories has a lot to do with the location of the manufacturer, we still want to know more about these two models. We can see from the signs on the accessories that the lights of the 320i are from Austria and the sensors are from Germany. 320Li’s accessories are all from China. Of course, I don’t think there will be any difference in quality in the supply of accessories. After all, they must be approved by BMW brand, and it should only be the difference in production place.
● Comparison of materials used for interior decoration: There are differences between interior door trim panels and decorative parts, and there is no obvious difference in assembly technology and materials used.


After seeing the differences in appearance, workmanship and accessories suppliers, let’s walk into the car and open the door. The interior trim panels of the two cars have different shapes. Decorative strips are added to the interior trim panel of 320Li, and the wood grain decorative panel is used in the car, which is more calm than the silver panel of 320i. This color matching is also in line with the consumers who pay attention to riding. If it is the pursuit of manipulation, it will inevitably choose the standard version, and the silver decoration with all-black color matching is also younger.
● Comparison of front row configuration: 320i has more abundant configurations, and it is made of genuine leather, and 320Li is synthetic leather.

The front seats of the 320i have heating function, and the air conditioner is controlled in two temperature zones, so the care for the front passengers is more thoughtful and comprehensive. In addition to some minor differences on the door, the interior of the car is more focused on the differences in configuration, and there is no big gap in the workmanship and materials used in the instrument panel.


However, the leather material of the seat has different performances between the two cars. According to the official information, the 320i is made of Dakota leather, while the 320Li is made of synthetic leather. In addition to the differences in materials, there are also some differences in actual feelings. Dakota leather is more flexible and comfortable to ride, while synthetic leather is hard and slightly inferior in comfort.
