The new BMW 320d EfficientDynamics Saloon
Tue Apr 27 12:09:53 CEST 2010 Press Kit
With the introduction of the new BMW 320d EfficientDynamics Saloon BMW is to offer the most fuel efficient and greenest 3 Series ever. This latest model sets a new benchmark in the premium segment recording CO2 emissions of just 109g/km and a combined consumption figure of 68.9mpg. The new BMW 320d EfficientDynamics Saloon offers the strongest demonstration yet of the success of the company’s pioneering EfficientDynamics programme. This new model is, for the moment, the best example of the art of the possible, not by using hybrid technology or electric power but by refining still further the enduring internal combustion engine.

Continuing with the philosophy for BMW EfficientDynamics, BMW will not charge extra for all the measures that make the impressive performance figures possible. Therefore the BMW 320d EfficientDynamics Saloon will share exactly the same retail price as the 320d SE Saloon. The cleanest 3 Series ever has a retail price of £26,480 (£27,245 OTR) and shares an identical specification (excluding 16-inch aero alloy wheels) that includes automatic air conditioning, rear Park Distance Control and an auto dimming rear mirror, to mention but a few.
