Now that the U.S. has more-or-less bounced back from its economic slump, sales in the luxury segment are hotter than ever. But the hottest of the hot is none other than BMW, with north of 78,000 vehicles sold in the first three months of 2015 alone. The most popular of these cars is the 3 Series.

While the 3 Series has been popular for decades, its appeal has only been bolstered in 2015. So far, 14,835 models have been sold in dealerships across the country, accounting for a 47 year-over-year jump over the same period in 2014. The key to this sedan's success is its style, performance, and legacy, detailed in this video from Consumer Reports.

See for yourself.
