How's your fuel economy?

Rosco P · 03-16-2015, 07:26 AM

23.4 avg over 3000 miles.

I could do much better but that is not as fun.

Averaging 20mpg

😳

bdoooh · 03-16-2015, 07:31 AM

22.9 over 9755 miles

X2Board · 03-16-2015, 07:32 AM

27 MPG, but she only has 44x miles. That number will take a big drop after the 1200 mile service.

MasterC17 · 03-16-2015, 07:47 AM

14.7mpg over almost 3,000 miles. How did you manage to get 24mpg with the S65, I average 16mpg with my N51 lol.

FTS · 03-16-2015, 07:59 AM

I am averaging 22.5 mpg on daily commute. Last 400 miles I exclusively used the Auto start/stop feature and avg improved to 23.0 mpg (car is at 3000 mi.).

Damasconian · 03-16-2015, 08:13 AM

2600+ miles in and I haven't checked it once.

Should I feel guilty about that?

elias · 03-16-2015, 08:51 AM

I'm at 1400 miles and I'm averaging around 22 mpg, I don't expect that to last
Once Spring is in full swing and the temp warms up!

myzmak · 03-16-2015, 11:31 AM

2600 km on the car.

All city driving (including freeway, but no long trips)

Indicated is 12.0 L/100 km (or 19.6 mpg (US) or 23.5 mpg (imperial)

According to BMW Canada technical specs, I should be getting this:

Quote:

City, man/auto (L/100 km) 13.7 / 14.1

Highway, man/auto (L/100km) 9 / 9.7

Combined, man/auto (L/100km) 11.6 / 12.1

So, I am doing about the same as the expected 'combined' and much better than anticipated city.

....and I do not drive with a light foot.

volkl23 · 03-16-2015, 11:50 AM

I'm averaging about 21 MPG mostly city driving, but this is taking it really easy (very slow acceleration). Normal or more spirited driving, I typically get 18-19MPG.

tisme · 03-16-2015, 12:26 PM

2,700 miles and 30.0 mpg I don't use it for short around town trips and only on journeys 10+ miles. mpg around town and start up is 15mpg.

These are english gallons, which give us more fuel than american ones.

Haha, sorry I keep forgetting basic math is not taught here and I don't always bother to do that for you.

Hawaii i8 · 03-16-2015, 02:05 PM

I'm still only averaging 16mpg... I need to go easy on the gas!

hababa · 03-16-2015, 02:08 PM

3500 miles on the car, averaging 26MPG on the highway. Total average is 22. Lots of highway mileage.

stressdoc · 03-16-2015, 03:12 PM

9400 miles; 1100 on ED. 22.8 mpg average for life of car so far.

JeffM-Houston · 03-16-2015, 03:43 PM

A little over 8,000 miles now, just did a trip to Florida and back, 1,100 miles, averaged 27.6 cruising at 85 most of the time.

yeah, I don't think that any user of imperial system math can defend its simplicity vs the metric system.....

Anyway, Lups' mileage is about 351,000 rods/hogshead (US hogsheads, mind you....)

Which shows how heavy her foot is. I get a clear 395,000+ rd/hhd.

dkhm3 · 03-16-2015, 05:17 PM

hmm lower than others... 4k miles averaging 18.4 mpg.

Vigilant · 03-16-2015, 06:52 PM

22.6 mpg (5600 miles) using first tier 93 octane with highway and city driving in sport/D2 mode.

Pauly Walnuts · 03-16-2015, 06:58 PM

Here's after an hour on the interstate averaging 65-75mph. You guys must be driving like maniacs
