BMW 335D - The best diesel car
BMW 335D
The BMW 335D is one of the most powerful diesel cars in production now. It can compete with various sports cars with its impressive 580 Nm torque that is available from 1750 to 2250 rpm and 286 pure horsepowers (@ 4400 rpm) which would probably get this diesel beast close to 300 km/h if it wasn't electronically limited to 250 km/h. The official combined fuel consumption of this BMW is 7.5 l/100 km/h, in reality it is at 8 l/100 km/h gently driven, which is still an amazing number compared to the sheer power that the engine has. The 335D takes only 6.2 seconds to 100 km/h.
