2024 BMW 3 Series MPG Rating

When it comes to the BMW 3 Series mpg rating, the clear winner is the hybrid 330e, which claims an impressive 73 mpg rating from the EPA. Predictably, fuel efficiency declines as performance increases, so the sporty M3 is the least fuel-efficient 3 Series trim and gets a mere 16 miles in-city and 23 miles on the highway.
