BMW are readying a new 318d to help beat the Tax busting emissions level of 120g/km of carbon dioxide. The current 318d offers car leasing customers a 123g/km vehicle and BMW are certain that with a few tweaks they will be able to bring that figure down to the Band B level.
A BMW spokesman has described how although these are only proposals at the moment, in the current climate they make a lot of sense. They also believe that if they can do it with the 3-series then they will be able to do the same with the 1-series and offer car leasing customers even more choice.
