Does the BMW 330i have a manual transmission?

Is the BMW 330i a manual or an automatic? I’ve never owned a car with a manual transmission before but I do know how to drive one, so I’m thinking about getting a manual to see if I like it.

While BMW does offer a lot of manual transmission options in their 2 Series and 4 Series, the
BMW 330i
is no longer produced with a manual transmission. While you can definitely find 330i models with manual transmissions from 2018 and before, the current model year doesn’t include any manual options for the 3 Series.
If you really want a new, manual BMW, your best bet is the 2 Series or the 4 Series. Both of these BMW lines have a few different manual transmission options that you won’t be able to find in the 3 Series at this time.
