The BMW 318d diesel Saloon is priced from around £31,700 in SE, £32,000 in Sport and just under £34,000 in M Sport trim. Each trim comes with its own set of desirable specifications and features, and every 318d vehicle can be individually configured with a variety of additional design and comfort packages. The 318d is also available in the Gran Turismo and Touring Estate body styles, with an equally large selection of trims and style packages.

The 2018 318d chassis houses a modern four cylinder 2.0 Litre turbo diesel engine, providing a power output of 150hp, and giving potential acceleration to 60mph in under 9 seconds, with manual transmission. The efficient in-line diesel engine has remarkably low emissions figures considering its power, of only 123g/km, and its combined fuel economy is also respectable, at just over 60mpg.

The 2018 BMW 318d diesel meets the EU6 emission standards, thanks to BMW’s effective diesel particulate filter and oxidation-type diesel catalytic converter. Safety is also a key factor in the design of this, and all BMW 3 Series models, with driver and passenger airbags, side impact protection and integrated seatbelt system included as part of the Advanced Safety Electronics system.

In addition to the standard six-speed manual transmission, the 318d diesel engine can be configured with an automatic gearbox. This provides increased efficiency of gear changes, and greater fuel economy over long journeys. BMW’s ergonomic Drive Performance Control system, present in the Sport and M Sport 318d models, further enhances the smooth ride handling of the rear-wheel drive 2.0 Litre engine.
