Two weeks ago I showed you the video of another BMW 1-series F20, but that was a BMW 118iA with a 3-cylinder petrol engine, as opposed to the 4-cylinder petrol engine in this BMW 120i.

The video below shows the approximate fuel consumption at different (constant) speeds. However, I drove this particular car for 12.000 kilometer on regular driving in different driving conditions. This resulted in a calculated fuel consumption during this trip averaged out at 7.19l / 100km (also see this link on Spritmonitor).

In the video I did a test of the consumption at different speeds. Aim of this test is not to give an exact specification of the fuel consumption of this car, but to show an approximation of the fuel consumption under real life circumstances. As the result also depends on tyres, size of the rims, road condition, weather and equipment that may alter the exact weight of the car, your personal experience may differ from mine.
