BMW 120d makes the ride unforgettable
Sometimes, you might feel like you’re stuck in a rut in your daily life or you’re hankering for something exciting and different, or maybe you need to cacoethes new experiences and new dares.
To get over this feeling, travel is the ideal thing to test yourself as it pushes people to their limits and gets them outside their comfort zone. In order to travel freely, you need a car, a car that suits you and also your personality.
The BMW 120d is a compact premium family hatchback produced to challenge the likes of the Audi A3, Volkswagen Golf and Mercedes A-Class. It’s the only car in the segment with the sort of rear-wheel drive system that’s more likely to find on sports cars, and it comes with a wide range of fairly powerful engines both petrol and diesel and is get-at-able in three-door as well as five-door versions.
True, it’s not the most practical among hatchbacks, but it’s a lot more spacious than the original 1 Series. BMW 120d isn’t going to give any chance of inadequacy in terms of power and efficiency.
An engine is made to drive first-rate
The best feature of BMW cars is all of them are equipped with healthy engines and that’s the very same reason why BMW cars are fun to drive.
Just sit in the monster BMW 120d and the five-door hatch will accelerate from zero to 62m/h in 7.6 seconds while hybrid-esque gives fuel consumption figure of just 5.2L/62m.
The 2.0-litre four-cylinder diesel engine develops a herculean 130kW of power and, from just 1750 rpm, a strapping 350Nm of torque to fly on the road. A quick-witted stop-start system is also available to save expensive fuel while idling, as there is a gear shift indicator to give hints as to when best shift gear for maximum efficiency.
A six-speed manual gearbox is standard but you can also go for eight-speed automatic. The BMW 120d is available with xDrive four-wheel drive for added traction but this increases the weight. You can find BMW 120d engines for sale at our authorized engine repairing workshops as well.
Handling and ride comfort
It is true that you cannot put any question on the ride comfort and ease of drive-in BMW 120d. The BMW 120d is the only small family car that delivers its power to the rear wheels. It is sharper to drive than many of its enemies, with neutral, equitable handling and all-right levels of grip.
Part of this agility is down to the steering, which is very swift. However, it is also too light, which can be a little bit off-putting when you’re driving fast.
On the inside
Whether you love or hate the way it looks, the BMW 120d certainly stands out from the crowd. The most important element of the latest BMW 120d is its interior, spacious cabin. The wheelbase has increased by 30mm, but it still feels poky in the back.
The cabin itself is breath-taking. The quality is top-notch, in terms of layout and all the stuff. It is the class benchmark, the gap to the Audi A3 really is quite small. Overall, we can say that the driving comfort is kept on top.
Not only may this but you get Reconditioned BMW 120d engines from all BMW’s authorised engine repairing workshops as well.
