Luxury Cars Are Turning Green
It is becoming popular in automotive engineering circles to go green, which are in essence providing cars which are doing everything in their power to be as efficient as possible. In some cases green are the boring cars stripped of performance. Diesel technology has been around for long but only achieves improved fuel consumption. However the diesels still emit some sort of carbon dioxide. Going green means both fuel consumption and carbon dioxide emissions are improved drastically.
BMW can take credit for being the first automotive maker to produce a luxury car which is an impressive carbon dioxide emissions. With most friendly cars performance and luxury features of the compromised. Not so in the BMW 320ED (efficiency dynamics) an engineering masterpiece which manages to get under 110 g/km. The 320 ED releases only 109 g/km. The consumption is as impressive at 69mpg.
Is you thought green was for non exciting models then trade in your car as a used bmw 3 series. The car is stocked with all the normal features such as navigation screens, traction control, ABS, air conditioning in-house entertainment, all the features that other manufacturers would have to compromise to achieve the same efficiency.
