A few years ago most car makers had only one objective, increase the power in their cars, but now downsizing is the way to go, and BMW is no exception.
If a brand wants to survive they have to sell cars and with increasing fuel prices and with an ailing economy people just don't want to spend that much in a car. So BMW introduced the 316i, a car that will pay less taxes thanks to its 1.6liter engine connected to a six speed manual gearbox that produces 136hp and emits only 134g/km of CO2.
Needing only 5.8 liters to drive 100km, the fuel consumption is relatively low. And it isn't slow, requiring 8.9 seconds to reach 100km/h and is able to reach 210km/h.
It will cost a little over €30.500 ($39.500) in Spain.
