Mouse Or Lion?
Instead of a loud roar (like a lion), the 2017 BMW 523d’s diesel engine is as quiet as a mouse. This quietude takes some getting used to, coming from a diesel engine. However, it’s a welcome change. The 2.0 liter turbo diesel engine delivers 190 horsepower with an astonishing 400 pounds of torque. Coupled with an eight-speed automatic transmission, it’s a powerful sedan that handles effortlessly. Fuel economy is also one of its perks, estimated at over 45 mpg.
