BMW 320d EfficientDynamics Edition
In BMW's striving for improvement the efficiency offered by existing models in their BMW 3 Series range, the BMW EfficientDynamics is the component that makes these cars superior to their competitors. The latest representative of this trend is the BMW 320d EfficientDynamics Edition, which will be presented to the public for first time at the 2009 Frankfurt Motor Show.
This unique saloon combines fuel consumption of just 4.1 litres diesel/100 kilometres (equal to 68.9 mpg imp) and a CO2 rating of 109 grams per kilometre in the EU test cycle with engine output of 120 kW/163 hp.
The 2.0-litre four-cylinder diesel engine of this high-tech model boasts an all-aluminium crankcase, turbocharging with variable intake geometry and common-rail direct fuel injection complete with piezo-injectors. With the engine and the entire car modified once again for an even higher standard of efficiency, this unique saloon targeted above all at the German, Italian, French and Spanish markets comes with optimised aerodynamics, an extra-long final drive ratio, and an innovative two-mass flywheel incorporating a centrifugal-force pendulum.
All this makes the BMW 320d EfficientDynamics Edition the most fuel-efficient and lowest-emission car in BMW's current model range.
