BMW 330d has AWD (all wheel drive) (power is automatically distributed between the wheel axles) and automatic gearbox with 8 gears. BMW xDrive is a proactive all-wheel drive system without a center differential that engages before the vehicle becomes destabilized, unnoticed by the driver. Torque is distributed between the axles by an electronically controlled multi-plate clutch in the transfer case. The clutch is partially locked at most times, distributing power to both axles in a 40/60 front/rear ratio, but the system is capable of sending 100% of the torque to either axle. At higher speeds or when parking, multi-plate clutch is disengaged and all power is transferred to the rear wheels. DSC system (Dynamic Stability Control) also brakes the wheels separately to regain traction and assist in cornering.
BMW 330d accelerates to speed 100 kilometres per hour in 5.3 seconds. The maximum speed of this car is 250 km/h.

The fuel consumption of this version of BMW 330d reported by owners in daily driving mode is 7.1 litres per 100km.
