My experience for the 1900 miles I have on her so far is 14.5 to 15.7 city w/ light highway. Pure highway in town feathering the throttle I can get 20-22.

Well, I’ve heard over and over 24 MPG but now you made me second-guess myself. So, I pulled data directly from the BMW Media Information document and the numbers actually look better then 24 MPG. Now, please feel free to shoot holes in this if you see anything that I might have done wrong. I think all of us would like to get to the correct numbers but in the end (as stated several times in this thread), it really depends on how you drive. Look on page 26 and 27 in the BMW Media Information document (provided the link to the doc in the forum below). The 535i and 550i are compared side-by-side. The Fuel Consumption sections show how close the 2 are with the new 550i engine. But, notice the difference based in tire size. You need to compare both models with the 18’ tires that are not side-by-side. I included a chart below from the BMW Media Information that I converted for ltr/ 100km to MPG. According to the chart, it’s showing 27.35 combined average! ..............................535i................ .............550i......................Difference .....................ltr/100 km......MPG........ltr/100 km...MPG.................MPG Urban...............11.3..........20.82........... .11.8.......19.93.................0.89 Extra Urban........6.3...........37.34.............6.6 .......35.64.................1.7 Combined...........8.2...........28.69............ .8.6.......27.35.................1.34 ** both with 18" wheels Used to convert the ltr/100 km to MPG: "http://calculator-converter.com/l_100km_mpg_convert_mpg_to_l_per_100_km.php" Link to Technical Specs Doc: http://f10.5post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=842217 I don’t have the doc for the 2013 550i but the window data on every 550i at my dealership stated 20 MPG average. Please let me know your thoughts because if the numbers look correct I’m extremely impressed with a V8 averaging 27+ MPG Last edited by Atl550; 07-01-2013 at 04:26 PM.. |
