New Reveal : 2010 BMW 320d EfficientDynamics

Introduction:
With BMW out of Formula One, it's time now to focus on fuel-efficient engines rather than fire-breathing high RPMs. Well, last week, BMW showcased both 2010 BMW ActiveHybrid 7 & 2010 BMW ActiveHybrid X6. While those were hybrids, this 3-Series is actually a diesel. So it may look like any 3-Series, but this 320d EfficientDynamics has the technology to make it achieve outstanding numbers in fuel-economy ratings.
Drivetrain:
The BMW 320d EfficientDynamics Edition is powered by a 2.0L 4-cylinder turbocharged diesel engine making 163 hp with 265 lb-ft of torque. The engine is mated to a 6-speed manual transmission that drives power to the rear-wheels. While 0 to 60 mph comes in a somewhat respectable 8.2 seconds and a top speed of 140 mph, fuel-economy comes in at an outstanding 57 mpg, thanks to the all-new EfficientDynamics with common-rail diesel, variable intake geometry, and an all-aluminium crankcase. With 57 mpg fuel-economy rating, this makes the 320d EfficientDynamics the most fuel-efficient BMW on the line-up.
Live debut at Frankfurt:
BMW will officially debut the 2010 320d EfficientDynamics at the 2009 Frankfurt Motor Show in September. No word on European pricing, but all the extra information will come to Frankfurt.
