BMW 320D ED or Audi A4 SE What Will You Choose

UK taxation system penalizes the high carbon emitting cars with higher tax bill, therefore the CO2 emissions value has become a major factor in deciding what car to buy. The most affected is the executive saloon market. When BMW introduced dirst generation BMW 320d EfficientDynamics in 2010, few would have thought that it would sell that quickly. The 320d has become the most favourite model of the BMW’s 3-Series and accounts for the one third sales of it class. All of this raises the bar for the new arrival to perform well. The standard car has impressively left its rivals behind, now the question is, can the ED do the same.

The most direct competitor of the BMW 320d ED is the Audi A4 that has recently been facelifted. Both cars are designed to emit the lowest amount of carbon possible without compromising their performance or executive image making them top choices for company cars. Now which is the best all rounder among the two. The two statistics that matter the most in fiercely fought company market are fuel consumption and carbon emissions. If we judge both ...
... the cars on just these two factors, the 320d claims an easy victory. But the BMW 320d is more than just an efficient car, it returns an engaging drive making everyday journey an enjoyable experience. Plus the 320d has a bigger cabin and larger boot making it more practical and family friendly car.

On the other hand, the Audi A4 has merits of its own. It is a very comfortable car to ride in and similar specced Se model returns a good value for money which is something one doesn’t expect from an Audi. But for a company car it comes with high costs of fuel and drive is nowhere near engaging as compared to the BMW 320d. This result proves that the 3 Series dominate its class. None of the cars even come closer to the BMW’s efficiency and on-road manner. It is one of those exceptions that the car that costs less to run is also the best to drive and has an appealing shape.

So the winner of our test is the BMW 320d ED. Not only does it has the lowest carbon emissions in it class but also it does no compromise on performance and driving experience. It is also a quality built car with even more practicality than its predecessor. All of this makes it the perfect choice in the compact executive class. The facelifted Audi A4 is the closest to the 320d among all other rivals but still it stays far behind. It might offer comfort and smoothness but still it doesn’t match the driving dynamics and value for money offered by the BMW 320d.
