Drivetrain loss on our X6 50i

Since I don't know much about drivetrain loss on my car I was wondering if anyone else knew what the percentage was?

Thanks for your input.

I think I read somewhere the X5M/X6M measured around 510 bhp at the wheels from 555 bhp at the engine, so the 50i would probably be a similar percentage drop.

That's only an 8% loss. That's impossible. Thats highly unlikely for a rear wheel drive car let alone an all wheel drive.
