  • Anything with BMW's B58 Turbo inline-6 is bound to impress us on the highway fuel economy test. This 2023 M340i is no exception to that. Who can say no to a car that beats its epa rating, AND can sprint to 60 in under 4 seconds?

    I have a 2022 M340i with the mild hybrid. I can get 36-38 on the freeway with the air conditioner on Eco Mode, and 40+ without the air conditioner off, Eco Mode. It's truly crazy in a car you can put back into Sport+ and drive your head back into the seat. Good times.

      Used to have the SAABs 2.8 V6 engine in 17' Opel insignia OPC (Buick regal GS equivalent here in Europe, just different badge, same as with Vauxhaul in UK) That car was insanely thirsty and fuel inefficient. Long term average (100k km) since the car was new was 18 mpg / 13/100km. Never had an engine issue though for whole 5,5 years i've owned it. But with the fuel price increase the consumption was ridiculous....

    On the stock Pirelli 18” all season runflats I could easily get 39-40mpg on a highway drive. Averaged 35mpg on my drive to and from work which was half city, half freeway. Switched to Michelin Pilot Sport A/S tires and saw a drop off of about 10% but still very happy overall with this car. Absolutely amazing daily driver.

      @@Lilwebstarr keep in mind the full M variant will be much more rigid and uncomfortable overall if that's something you also consider. the seats are also more on the "racing" side and if you're a bigger person may not fit. i see the m340i as the perfect compromise between sportiness and comfort. also much safer with the AWD. i personally don't see a reason for buying the M when the m340i takes around 3.8 sec to 60mph. As a side note, i can't understand why cars are much cheaper in the US than they are here in Europe. A fully equipped m340i costs us roughly $100k :(

      WRX has a full time AWD system with real planetary center differential (CVT model). This BMW does not have a center differential at all, it uses Magna Actimax transfer case which decouples the front wheels when possible (eco pro mode) and the car is rwd. It wouldn't be that efficient with a real center diff awd system🙂 And it also has overinflated tires at 39psi. The WRX had 33/32psi front/rear. And i also think the drag coefficient of wrx is bigger. Because this m340i got the same MPG as the Supra 3.0 LoL. And it is also MHEV.
      Nonetheless, it is a very good result for bmw.

    It is a very enjoyable and fun driving machine.
    Except..... I hate the controls on this irritating car.
    Everything that you need to do you have to do through the center screen and many options are buried several layers deep.
    It is a horrible, lousy, poor, very difficult and time consuming design.
    Whoever designed this horrendous controls should be fired.
    I wish I knew these designs fault as I would have never bought this car. It is my fault.
    A big shame on BMW.
    Check these controls before you buy this model.
    You have been forewarned. Check everything thoroughly.
    Hope BMW will redesign all the horrible and irritating controls for 2024.

Отключение переднего привода при равномерном движении по трассе никак не решает этих проблем. Кстати, при отключении оба кардана продолжают вращаться.
      Дизель конечно экономичнее, ты как обычно пишешь глупость. Данные с офиц. сайта: дизель 6,4-5,9 л/100, бензин 8,5-7,8.
      Про ускорение никто и не спорил - бензиновая версия мощнее, 4,4 с до 100, а дизель 4,6, но при гонке по автобану, очевидно, дизель будет быстрее т.к. имеет больше запас хода.
