BMW GPS top speed

Can someone measure GPS top speed of 2021 330i? I have personaly checked top speed of 2021 M340i and You can see result 243km/h. I have doubts that 330i has bigger top speed than M340i.

Have a look at AutoTopNL's You-Tube channel. They did a test of a totally stock rear wheel drive G20 330i on the unrestricted autobahn a few years ago and I'm pretty sure they used a secondary GPS and got well over 250 km/h. The guy was quite surprised.

That’s 2020 model. 2021 is the year of change.

All G20 gasoline in Europe should have OPF. Mine is early 2020 (not MH) with OPF.

Speed limit is not the problem. However, You can not sell the car with declared top speed 250kmh if car goes 242kmh. That is the same as selling car with declared lenght 500cm and the car is long 480cm.

243 kmh equals 151 mph, so I think this checks out. In the US, the 330i with M Sport and the M340i with performance tires are computer limited to 155 mph. Both also have variants that are computer limited to 130 mph or 209 kmh when not equipped with the right tires from the factory.

This is EU version. Limited 250kmh. No 210kmh version in EU because noone would buy that. However 243 is not 250. This would be as I pay 55 for 58 bill
