BMW Canada has announced pricing for the 2009 BMW 335d Sedan and X5 xDrive35d Sports Activity Vehicle, the first BMW Advanced Diesels with Blue Performance.

The BMW 335d Sedan comes to the Canadian market with an MSRP of $49,700, while the X5 xDrive35d SAV will debut with an MSRP of $62,200.

Both models will be powered by a variable twin turbo 3.0 liter inline six cylinder diesel engine with Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) exhaust management system and diesel particulate filter.

With a maximum output of 265 hp and peak torque of an astonishing 425 lb-ft., the 3.0-liter six with Advanced Diesel with BluePerformance will not only provide sports-car-like acceleration and driveability, but set new benchmarks in fuel efficiency and emission reduction in their respective classes.

Mated exclusively to a six-speed automatic transmission, this remarkable engine enables the 335d Sedan to sprint from 0-100 km/h is just 6.3 seconds, while the X5 xDrive35d sweeps from 0-100 km/h in only 7.4 seconds.

Equipped with an array of latest-generation EfficientDynamics diesel technology, both new diesel models are among the most efficient and cleanest running BMW ever produced for the Canadian market.

With average fuel consumption of only 7.4 L/100 km for the 335d and 9.3 L/100km for the X5 xDrive35d, these vehicles are not only among the most fuel efficient in their classes, but are also fully compliant with the stringent Canadian federal Tier2 Bin5 emissions regulations for nitrogen oxides.

The production versions of the BMW 335d Sedan and X5 xDrive35d have their North American debut last week at the Los Angeles International Auto Show.
