&#13 &#13 Initially Posted by VIERsr &#13 Terrific accomplishment, these new engines are miraculous, just a couple yrs ago it would have been ridiculous to even consider about that performance with this electric power. Some people nonetheless regret the old NA engines (and I absolutely fully grasp their motives), but it’s tough to complain about d.i., downsizing and turbocharging when you can get that sort of fuel consumption on 500+ hp cars and trucks if you you should not talk to for all the electrical power. I necessarily mean, with the S65/S85 it was nearly unachievable to get 20 mpg even at minimal speed cruising, and they ended up nowhere around as large-functionality as the new engines. &#13 &#13

I would have hardly ever assumed you could get near to 30mpg in a 500hp auto. I came from DSMS and Evos, with 2 liter 4 cylinders that acquired 18-22 with guide transmissions. This is amazing.

&#13 &#13 At first Posted by GTS Daddy &#13 I am persistently acquiring close to 23mpg in my Macan Turbo the way I generate commonly. Ponder how shut this G80 would get me to that? &#13 &#13

I am going to try out this in my G82 xDrive as soon as I get the likelihood. I’ve taken extensive outings in it, but I generally finish up getting a journey to Mexico along the way.

Just one of the previous bmw meetups I went to, a friend in an F80 adopted me down to the meetup location, and he instructed me that he had a complete tank when we left.

We received to the meetup location and then we headed down south, even further into some canyon driving. He pulled around to get gas, saying he was on the gas mild, which I imagined was insane, for the reason that I was nonetheless a bit previously mentioned 50 % a tank. I am wondering, you can find no way, that F80 was only acquiring 150 miles before the gas mild came on.

I drove difficult in the canyons and drove another 130 miles house, halting in Mexico a several periods, and nevertheless make it again to my community appropriate just after the gasoline reserve mild arrived on. The guy lived like 15 minutes previous me, and he reported when he received household, he was on the gasoline mild again.

Like the motor vehicle had a hole in the tank. I just considered acquiring a DCT and a lot less hearing that auto just bought trash mileage. I guess that’s not typical? :
