The BMW 330e plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) builds on the already impressive 3 Series sedan. It has athletic handling, an energetic powertrain, and the ability to drive under electric power. But, the 330e’s 20 miles of electric-only driving range is on the short side among PHEVs. It also sacrifices some trunk space due to the hybrid battery.

Scammers create fake profiles on social media. They claim they’re military servicemembers to get your trust, but what they want is your money. But if that love interest says they can’t meet you in person, asks you for money, or you find their picture in several profiles – you know it’s a scammer. Don’t send money. Instead, cut off contact. Tell the social media platform, dating website, or app right away.
