X5m mpg

Drexel · 03-15-2015, 09:57 PM

just curious if anyone has seen the window sticker and what the city, highway or avg mpg is on these beasts? Not that it matters, just curious.

16 combined, 14 city, 19 highway.

Preliminary EPA figures.

One of the reasons the car was held so long was recertification of these numbers. I don't think BMW NA was too happy.

ha - those are terrible!

i can't believe they couldn't do better than that. audi can get 27 hwy on their RS7/S8 turboed V8s... with an 8th gear and cyl deactivation i believe

wouldn't stop me but that isn't very impressive to still be solid mid teens in mpg in a 2015 car

Thought the same thing. And given all of the suspicious delays with my car, I've been looking at the RS7 again. There's one near me that's optioned exactly as I would like.

The problem is their atrocious residuals.

Can't agree more. Couple this with their atrocious design direction, as evidenced in the new Q7, and you've got a full-on disaster.

Seems pretty good to me? E9x was 14 and 20?

Yeah, i'd only pick one up CPOed w/low miles.

Did you test drive RS7? The acceleration is astonishing.
