With combined fuel economy of an impressive 60.1 miles per gallon and CO2 emissions of just 123g/km the BMW 318d ES is the most efficient and eco friendly 3 series ever made by the Bavarian Motor Works company.

Since 2007 BMW’s eco friendly EfficientDynamics have been used to great effect with the BMW 118d receiving the Green Car of the Year award in 2008 and now the BMW 318d ES receiving its green accolade this year.

With eco friendly features as Auto Stop-Start, Brake Energy Regeneration, electric power steering, optimum Shift Indicator, Reduced Resistance and Active Aerodynamics, BMW’s EfficientDynamics improve fuel economy and efficiency as well as limiting CO2 emissions.

And of course with the BMW 318d ES being an executive saloon there has been no class or attention to detail spared on the interior so the driving experience is a pleasant one. It can also shift from 0-60 in 9 seconds so is no slouch also.

An award winning BMW that looks this good, is very economical, eco-friendly and does not compensate on performance, and all for under £25,000.
