Let's face it, the M Sport suspension is probably just marketing, different dampers and springs but I bet there is no manufacturing cost difference...

I think they may have removed the M Sport suspension on 330e because of ride quality issues/managing the extra weight. I tried a standard 320d M Sport with non RFT on 18" wheels and found the ride far too uncomfortable. The adaptive in comfort mode is amazingly better, even with 19" wheels and RFT tyres...

As an aside, I think all 330e's have the full iDrive package + TFT dashboard, whether SE, Sport or M Sport.

Maybe I’m missing something tricky?
I thought the M Sport pack cost the same for the 330I as the 330E whereas the 330I seems to include more functionality with the steering,suspension,braking,loudspeakers and larger tank for the same price? If I’m right it hardly seems fair to charge the same for the M Sport pack in the 330E
Yep, that was my point but I've never priced up a 330i to know what they charge for the M Sport + pack... If it's the same as the 330e/320d/320i then 330i M Sport + owners are being ripped... although I think they do get a limited slip diff that you don't get with other engines. Perhaps someone can correct me?
