How much does the 218i Convertible 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 6.5 L/100). The choice depends on your priorities: check the 218i Convertible 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.
