What Our Members Are Saying about the Real Gas Mileage of the BMW 2-Series

BMW 2-Series Real Gas Mileage: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2014 2dr Coupe turbocharged 320hp 3.0L I6
8-speed shiftable automatic RWD
The #3 pro of this hardcore sports car, surprisingly, is fuel economy. All the major brands are taking surprising lengths to be eco-friendly. In 'Eco' mode, the 300 horsepower M235i can manage a surprising 22/33 mpg. There is a MPG bar constantly running below your speedometer, constantly challenging you to try to make it as big as possible. The car also features regenerative braking to power the car's electrical systems. see full BMW 2-Series review
