The front light clusters of all new BMW 3 Series are extended to its grille which is refurbished to take kidney like shape.

The full-width air ducts and LED light strips have been placed in the lower part of its front bumper. This establishes that the car has much lower stance and has wider looks than its current ally. Its front has been designed with a completely different approach.
