Among the 143 compacts, the 120d ranks (top 29 in segment) in fuel consumption. Caralogy simulates its real-world cost: motorway simulation, consumption simulation and performance simulation.
Tailored to this vehicle?
Good compromise for regular use without available charging infrastructure. 29th of 137 in Combined consumption (4.6 L/100), 21th of 130 in Tank range (1087 km).
If the priority is Combined consumption, the BMW 216d Steptronic (1st with 3.9 L/100) takes the lead. If the priority is Tank range, the BMW 216d Steptronic (1st with 1308 km) takes the lead.
Fuel consumption: 4.6 L/100 L/100 (29th of 137 in Combined consumption)
The 120d consumes 4.6 L/100 on the WLTP combined cycle. The segment reference is the BMW 216d Steptronic (3.9 L/100).
Tank range: 1087 km (21th of 130 in Tank range)
On a full tank, the 120d covers 1087 km on the combined cycle. The segment reference reaches 1308 km.

BMW 120d: 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 rank in its segment?
Among the 143 compacts 2018–2022, the 120d ranks 29th of 137 in Combined consumption (4.6 L/100, behind the BMW 216d Steptronic), 21th of 130 in Tank range (1087 km, behind the BMW 216d Steptronic), 64th of 143 in 0–100 km/h (7.3 s, behind the BMW M140i xDrive).
What is the range of the 120d?
1087 km on a full tank (4.6 L/100 on the combined cycle) - 21th of 130 in autonomie du segment.
How much does the 120d 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 Steptronic instead?
The BMW 216d Steptronic leads in Combined consumption (3.9 L/100 vs 4.6 L/100). The choice depends on your priorities: check the 120d vs BMW 216d Steptronic 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.
