BMW claims 4.7 liters/100km "combined" for the 320d here:

BMW 3 Series Coupé : Diesel engines (BMW 320d, 325d, 330d)

That translates to 50 US MPG, if I'm not mistaken, so 57.4 US MPG on a long trip sounds reasonable.

This site claims the 57.4 is definitely US MPG:

BMW has apparently fitted low rolling resistance tires and more aerodynamic wheels to the 320d as well:

And 0-100KM in 7.9 seconds!
