Andrew 30 Report post Posted June 26, 2007 BMW is announcing a lot of ’green’ news today for its model lineup. The 2008 BMW lineup will now have 22 models that achieve over 48mpg while emitting 140g/km or less of CO2 as well as increased performance. As we just reported earlier, the BMW 6-Series will get a powerful diesel-powered 635d. BMW also announced the new 123d for its 1-series range. The BMW 123d is powered by a 2.0 liter, 4-cylinder twin-turbo diesel engine that produces an outstanding 201 horsepower. That gives the BMW 123d the ability to do 0-62mph in 7.1 seconds with a fuel-economy of 54.3mpg. Available in 3 and 5 door variants, the123d is fitted with BMW’s Efficient Dynamics system that includes the stop-start function and brake energy regeneration. Pricing for the new models will be revealed in September near the sale date. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
