- Not only is the new BMW 230i great to drive, it's also extremely economical! Both versions of the new G42 2 series have impressed us with their highway fuel economy performance.

So much more character than any SUV. But I suppose those with kids get much more use of the SUVs.
I strongly recommend a base 230i without expensive options in this model. I paid $39k with only Convenience package and heated seats and steering wheel. This car is a perfectly good daily driver without the added performance options.
I strongly recommend you shut the F up. And let people buy what they want 👍🏽
The 230i 2022 is really efficient. In my last trip to Canada, I got 39 mpg driving manual, all highway for 600miles. Eco pro and comfort seem the same in manual mode.
Thanks for testing this. I’m seriously considering a new 230i, and fuel economy is a big factor for me when car shopping. Not the biggest factor but it’s up there, especially when the car takes premium gas.
The 230i is great value in base trim without the addd costs of M Spirt and Handling options. The car drives great in base form without those expensive upgrades. I just have the Convenience package which was added on already by dealer. Purchased it in Alpine White with the Cognac(tan) interior. $39k
@@rembo183 Thinking of getting one. Have you experienced any qualities issue or thing you dont like?
@@bj10jgo - I’ve had no issues and would high recommend it. Only issue is if you need more backseat room or need cargo space. It’s a comfortable coupe that handles great, is fun to drive and has that luxury BMW feel.
@@rembo183I' wish they would offer it in manual transmission. Currently, im debating to get the 23 GR86 or this 230. Hard to choose because they are good on their own ways.
Love the way the camera jerks around
DM, I am looking forward to the day 72 mph gets you 72 mpg.
Hahaha, that'll be a landmark day.
@@DailyMotor 60 mpg at 60 mph should arrive soon.
@@rightlanehog3151 I think you could already do that with a Prius or Camry. By the way, you'll be pleased with the A3 I just tested today. 40 mpg, regular gas. Quattro model.
@@DailyMotor Audis run on regular?
The new A3, yes. Checked the manual and everything. It’s probably the same motor they use in the VW products, because it isn’t very refined.
My Mercedes C300 4wd 2016 never get more than 32mpg (check on cockpit only). Just get around 29 for long trip 100 miled. i just sold that Mer and ordered for this 230i, hope it save more gas than my C300 😁 like this video
Drove a 22 rwd 230i NE to FL and back 80 to 90+ mph with temps in the 70s and 80s range. Used 87 with one octane STP booster bottle every refill. Stayed over 40 mpg most of the trip until NE traffic took it down to 39.1 mpg. Range was close to 550 miles.
Why are you adding that nonsense STP after every fill?? You're ruining it
I wish I had those temperatures, mid March was in the mid 80s, too darn hot, cold weather is wonderful
Whole time I was thinking how tall is this dude? Makes the car look small when he stands up
Generally love the look of this car but damn those panel gaps. Reminds me of my old e90, they drove me nuts on that car and they would drive me nuts on this one too!
Dang this car looks so great in this configuration imo
Excellent Video! Sort of reviews we need more of.
That's a nice bmw
pretty good but the B58 is only slightly worse on gas for 150 more HP
And 10k more ....
Standard base model over here is a 218i, and its 10k usd more then a 230i in the US 😕
Where is that? Same in Portugal.
@@danisantos3255 Netherlands
@@JoostH.Yeah we're screwed. Europe, the country of the high taxes. Gotta love it
Would the 2023 230i with xdrive (awd) get comparable gas mileage ?
Is this in US or imperial MPG?
Spec'd out at $47k (including tax, title and fees) dealer is quoting me a 10k miles/year, 3 year lease with $2500 down at like $880/month. Does that sound about right? Is it because residual value is bad on these? Seems high to me.
2500 down isn't very much. You won't get a very good monthly with about 5% down, your typical down payment on a vehicle purchase is 20-25%, but I was always taught to put as much cash down as you can afford to either reduce the monthly or reduce the loan duration if you're buying. You also typically get cheaper insurance if you go down the purchase route. I've only ever bought my vehicles, currently I spend $380/mo on a 19 STi that set me back 43,000 after titles fees and taxes, so $880 still sounds very high. Right now the residual on any vehicle is crazy high, most 3 year old cars are reselling at their MSRP.
Dealer quoted me$750 per month 10k miles nothing down only doc Fees $2k
@@Mr99Burns ended up getting $772/month nothing down and they threw in wheel and tire plan and window tint.
Lease deals are bad in general right now, and the reason is pretty surprising.
High lease costs are a reaction to the high used prices. Leases that are expiring now are getting bought out and flipped instead of transferred to the banks -- this is because the car is worth much more than what the residual is. The banks don't like this -- in particular, they don't like the volatility in prices-- so they're setting high lease prices to discourage people from leasing.
PS: If you have a lease expiring as of this writing, definitely consider buying the lease out and flipping the car. You can probably make a pretty penny off the transaction. Just make sure you have another car purchase lined up.
@@anhayes25 yup Leasing a car, especially a bmw right now makes little sense. A new m3 with 10% down is over $1k/month on a lease. It’s not much more to do s 60 month finance with good credit.
Could you try the other 2 modes in about 65ish mph, bro? Tia!
I have the 230i (f22)... I drive always in Sport and manual mode (mostly in LA traffic).... I don't make more than 20/22 MPG.
and nobody drives on the interstate at 74.
Here is the real fuel consumption of the 230i (I had the F22 for 3 years and now I have the G42). In the city traffic 18 MPG, Highway 21 MPG.
Average after 35K miles 19.99. My commute is partially on the 405 and partially city traffic (Los Angeles).
You're doing something. I get 25 MPG on summer tires in a 420 HP, turbo V6 Cadillac CTS on the highway.
@@aluisious it's called Heavy Foot......
@@dodgers4121 well yeah that and the fact that you commute in one of the most horrendously high traffic areas.
@@porfiriato84 To be honest I use the car always in Sport.
Is this The Topher?
That's what I was thinking lol
74 mph and everyone is passing the BMW...
Ça fait 7,04 L / 100km.
It takes 89...
This is not the base model, there is also a 220i
In Europe yes
The base is a 230i which starts at $36k so this car has some expensive options. This has about $10k in options for about $47k. I just purchased this car with only the convenience package for $39k.( without the M Sport and Dynamic Handling packages you save a lot!
nobody drives this car in eco pro.
Wait, "how economical is it?" Dude, people don't buy BMWs for their fuel economy. Lol.
Actually I am cross shopping between this and the Camaro SS because they’re in the same price range where I live lol.
