Caralogy Verdict

Suitable for

Good compromise for regular use without available charging infrastructure. 29th of 99 in 0–100 km/h (6.9 s).

Alternatives to consider

If the priority is Combined consumption, the Bmw 216d Gran Coupe (1st with 4.1 L/100) takes the lead. If the priority is Tank range, the Bmw 116d (1st with 1209 km) takes the lead.

Fuel consumption: 5.2 L/100 L/100 (40th of 97 in Combined consumption)

The 120d xDrive consumes 5.2 L/100 on the WLTP combined cycle. The segment reference is the Bmw 216d Gran Coupe (4.1 L/100).

Tank range: 1000 km (34th of 90 in Tank range)

On a full tank, the 120d xDrive covers 1000 km on the combined cycle. The segment reference reaches 1209 km.

Frequently asked questions

BMW 120d xDrive: what you need to know

Well-argued answers to the most asked questions about this model, based on Caralogy data and simulations.

Where does the 120d xDrive rank in its segment?#

Among the 99 compacts 2016–2020, the 120d xDrive ranks 40th of 97 in Combined consumption (5.2 L/100, behind the Bmw 216d Gran Coupe), 34th of 90 in Tank range (1000 km, behind the Bmw 116d), 29th of 99 in 0–100 km/h (6.9 s, behind the Bmw M140i xDrive).

What is the range of the 120d xDrive?#

1000 km on a full tank (5.2 L/100 on the combined cycle) — 34th of 90 in autonomie du segment.

How much does the 120d xDrive cost to run?#

Running costs depend on your profile (mileage, charging type, city/highway mix). Use the Caralogy consumption simulator for a personalised estimate.

Why not a Bmw 216d Gran Coupe instead?#

The Bmw 216d Gran Coupe leads in Combined consumption (4.1 L/100 vs 5.2 L/100). The choice depends on your priorities: check the 120d xDrive vs Bmw 216d Gran Coupe duel for a detailed comparison.

How does Caralogy calculate its figures?#

Caralogy does not reproduce manufacturer figures: we recalculate every number through physics simulation, starting from SCx, mass and the power curve. This is why our figures at 130 km/h differ from WLTP. Full methodology on the dedicated page.
