BMW 3-series is crowned What Car? Green Car of the Year 2012

The new BMW 320d EfficientDynamics Saloon has fought off tough competition to once again be crowned Best Executive Car of the Year at the What Car? Green Awards 2012, going on to top the field and be awarded the prestigious accolade of Green Car of the Year.

The BMW 320d EfficientDynamics Saloon won over the judges with its unconventional statistics, combining outstanding fuel efficiency and emissions with impressive performance. With a combined fuel consumption of 68.9 mpg and CO2 emissions of 109 g/km, the 320d EfficientDynamics Saloon is still capable of travelling from 0-62 mph in 8.0 seconds. It was this no-compromise blend that ensured the most parsimonious 3-series model took the top green honour.

"BMW's engineers have worked very hard on their conventional engines and have given them some very unconventional green vital statistics. The choice of the 320d EfficientDynamics automatic Saloon as What Car?'s Green Car of the Year was a unanimous one. The 320d lets consumers who want to do their bit for the planet do so without compromise," said Chas Hallett, What Car? Editor-in-chief.
