X6M Fuel Litres/100km ???

Hey guys do all of you that drive the X6M mind telling me what your currently getting for Litres / 100km in the city and or highway? and include your driving style?

Just curious as the posted numbers seem quite high then what one might actually get..that is if your not a lead foot.

My 4.8is I as actually getting a lot lower then posted but drove like a grandma

Chime in on your 35i too if you guys dont mind as I am looking at buying either or.

Thanks Guys!

on Average of 14L/100km for me.
So a full tank runs for around 500km.

You can do the conversion yourself because I am lazy.

X6M gets average 10-12mpg. Never seen it higher. I am not at liberty to discuss how I drive it, but let's just say, how it was meant to be driven

Ahh AndreyATC your the only one that makes my possible purchase more reasonable lol

I live 40km so 80km round trip from work so this bad boy would be my dailydriver just curious how much time I would spend at the gas station.

560 - 600km isnt too bad as I drive like a grandpa for the most part...I have a Porsche RUF R Turbo for my dirty work

If it's not a diesel X6, you will almost always get similar millage between 6-cyl and V8. It's heavy, so 6-cyl has to work a lot harder to move this beast.
I personally noticed very minimal difference between them.
It really comes down to where you drive and how you drive it
M is capable of good MPG, but it's tough to keep it below 2000 rpm
If you drive like grandpa on the highway, you may even able to squeeze 23mpg (10L/100km)
I can do this often when i have my kids sleeping in the car while cruising 60mph (55mph - limit)
The problem is, when i'm alone - M is too much fun

I do measure my car in the other scale, my onboard computer readings are:
City driving: 4.3kms/liter (23L/100kms)
Open road driving: 8kms/liter (12L/100)
We have no good highways in Costa Rica so it is difficult to get better mileage at a constant speed

x5m here

best I ever got was 6.7L/100km, cruising at 110km/h on a level road.

on the streets, its fucking terrible. I might as well get a fuel tanker to fill my tank as I am driving.

Highway - 12-13L/100 km (cruising at 120-140 km/hr)

Above based on a mild driving style

never bothered to check that..gas costs as much as water here

initially I was very concerned about it as I thought it may relate to bad injectors or sensor..checked with BMW and they found no codes and also checked several other X5Ms and X6Ms and all have an average which fluctuates between 27L-30L/100km

If you put in prospective the joy of driving such a monster the fuel is not an issue in any way.....
