The official comprehensive fuel consumption of the BMW 3 Series 320i two-wheel drive is 6.2L/100km; the 325i two-wheel drive is 6.3L/100km; the 330i two-wheel drive is 6.2L/100km; the 325i four-wheel drive is 6.8L/100km; and the 330i four-wheel drive is 6.9L/100km. Here is an introduction to BMW: Logo meaning: B.M.W. stands for Bavarian Motor Works, and the colors and combination of the logo come from the state emblem of Bavaria, where BMW is located. Brand honors: On December 18, 2018, the "2018 World Brand 500" compiled by the World Brand Laboratory was announced, with BMW ranking 16th.
I've driven a BMW 3 Series for several years and found fuel consumption really varies by driver. Officially, gasoline models like the 330i claim about 9.5L/100km in city driving, dropping to around 7L on highways. But real-world usage often exceeds 10L, especially in traffic jams. Many factors affect this - like uneven road conditions. Frequent stop-and-go at traffic lights burns extra fuel with every acceleration. Cargo weight matters too - weekend family trips with heavier loads immediately increase consumption. Running AC at full blast also consumes more. So I'd advise frequent highway drivers not to fixate on these numbers - the overall experience matters more.
