BMW 326 Specs, Engines & Dimensions (1936–1946) — First Generation
The first-generation BMW 326 is the Cabrio and Sedan generation to consider if you want a classic BMW touring car. Open and closed bodies share the same long-hood look and rear-drive character.
The BMW 326 engine in the examples here is a 2.0-liter gasoline unit with a manual transmission and rear-wheel-drive drivetrain. In the 2.0 MT Cabrio and 2.0 MT Sedan you shift yourself and send power to the rear axle, which suits unhurried touring. They illustrate this generation rather than every powertrain BMW built.
