BMW wheels and tyres EU tyre label close-up

BMW WHEELS & TYRES.

We subject the tyres for our vehicles to stringent tests with up to 50 different quality criteria – significantly more than prescribed by the uniform tyre labelling regulation that applies throughout Europe. This is where you will find all the information on the properties of the tyres used at BMW.

Fuel consumption and CO2 emissions.

BMW 330i Sedan:
Fuel consumption in l/100 km (combined): x.x–x.x
CO2 emissions in g/km (combined): xxx–xxx
 

Official figures for fuel consumption, CO2 emissions, electricity consumption and electric range were determined in accordance with the prescribed measurement procedure and comply with Regulation (EU) 715/2007 as amended. WLTP figures take into account any optional equipment in the case of ranges. For vehicles newly type-approved since 01.01.2021, the official specifications exist only according to WLTP. Further information on the NEDC and WLTP measurement methods can be found at www.bmw.de/wltp
 

** At temperatures below 0 degrees Celsius, purely electric driving mode of this plug-in hybrid will not be available until the battery has warmed up to an operational condition after the vehicle has travelled a few kilometers.

*The published fuel consumption and CO2 emission figures are established according to legislated technical specifications (UNECE Regulation 101/UN Regulation 83 and SANS 20101 standards), which sets out the procedures that are used to measure the CO2 emissions and fuel consumption. The claimed figures are established using specific tests under standardised, carefully controlled conditions and may differ from consumption achieved under real world conditions with the influences of altitude, road surface, geographic conditions, vehicle options, temperature, humidity, tyres size and driving behaviour amongst others. EU Unladen mass refers to a vehicle with standard equipment, with 90% fuel tank fill, including a driver (68 kg) and luggage (7 kg). Optional extras and accessories will generally increase this figure. Please contact your preferred authorized BMW dealer or BMW South Africa (Pty) Ltd. for information on vehicles that are available for sale, and the various specifications and options of vehicles that are available. Trailer loads may not exceed the load stated for un-braked or for braked trailer and the max tow bar load may not exceed the value stated. Vehicle heights are measured without the aerial. The heights are slightly higher if measured over the aerial. Measurements are stated for vehicles with standard fittings and may vary when optional equipment is fitted. The technical data stated refers to the current version of the model selected. Due to certain legal regulations in different countries, deviations in the technical data described here can occur.

The figures for performance, consumption and CO2 emissions refer to vehicles with standard transmission. Values in square brackets apply to vehicles with automatic transmission.
 

[1] Performance data of petrol engines apply to vehicles using RON 98 fuel. Fuel consumption data apply to vehicles using reference fuels in accordance with EU Regulation 715/2007. Unleaded RON 91 and higher with a maximum ethanol content of 10% (E10) may also be used. BMW recommends RON 95 fuel. For high-performance automobiles, BMW recommends RON 98 fuel.
 

[2] For plug-in hybrid: Electric drive depending on battery charging level.
 

[3] For plug-in hybrid: At temperatures below freezing, the fully electric drive system is only available after a few kilometres of driving, once the battery has heated to operational temperature.
 

[4] Official data for fuel consumption, CO2 emissions, power consumption and electric range was determined in accordance with the prescribed measuring procedure and corresponds to European Regulation (EC) 715/2007 in the applicable version. For ranges, data determined as per WLTP takes into account any optional equipment (available on the German market in this case). For vehicles that have been newly type approved since 1 January 2021, only the official data according to WLTP exists. In addition, NEDC values are deleted from the certificates of conformity as of 1 January 2023 by EC regulation 2022/195.

Further information about fuel consumption and official model-specific CO2 emissions of new passenger cars can be found in the "Guideline for fuel consumption, CO2 emissions and electric power consumption for new passenger cars", available free of charge at all points of sale, at the Deutsche Automobil Treuhand GmbH (DAT), Hellmuth-Hirth-Str. 1, 73760 Ostfildern-Scharnhausen, Germany, and under https://www.dat.de/co2/.
 

[5] For plug-in hybrid: Weighted, combined (EC AC Charge Weighted)
 

[6] Range depends on various factors, in particular: individual driving style, route characteristics, outside temperature, heating/air conditioning, pre-conditioning.
 

[7] The charging performance depends on the state of charge, ambient temperature, individual driving profile and use of auxiliary consumers. The ranges shown are based on the WLTP best case. The charging times apply to ambient temperatures of 23 degrees Celsius after a preceding drive and may differ depending on the usage behaviour.
 

[8] The EC unladen weight refers to a vehicle with standard equipment and does not include any optional extras. The unladen weight includes a 90% full tank and a driver weight of 75 kg. Optional equipment may affect the weight of the vehicle, the payload and the top speed if the selected equipment has an impact on the vehicle's aerodynamics.
 

[9] Composed of combustion engine drive (specified nominal value) and electric drive (up to specified nominal value).
 

[10] Composed of combustion engine drive (specified nominal value) and electric drive (up to specified nominal value). Electric drive depending on battery charging level.
