BMW Efficient Dynamics includes a Mild Hybrid Electric Car too

As Car and Driver adds:
“when you have 413 lb-ft of torque flowing from 1500 to 3000 rpm, and the 255 horsepower peak comes at 4000 rpm. So smooth and quiet is the inline six-cylinder turbocharged 3.0-liter that we often forgot it was a diesel. That could have turned out badly if we’d been called on to refuel our test car, but the 30 mpg combined EPA mileage and the 18.5-gallon fuel tank will take you more than 550 miles. You probably can stretch that range on long trips, since the highway rating is 38 mpg.” (Again we got 43 to 45 MPG in ECO MODE)
