Frequently asked questions

BMW 216i: 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 216i rank in its segment?#

Among the 99 compacts 2016–2020, the 216i ranks 47th of 97 in Combined consumption (5.8 L/100, behind the Bmw 216d Gran Coupe), 42th of 90 in Tank range (879 km, behind the Bmw 116d), 96th of 99 in 0–100 km/h (11.3 s, behind the Bmw M140i xDrive).

What is the range of the 216i?#

879 km on a full tank (5.8 L/100 on the combined cycle) — 42th of 90 in autonomie du segment.

How much does the 216i 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 5.8 L/100). The choice depends on your priorities: check the 216i 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.
