Just moved from a 2011 e92 320d mSport manual to a 420d mSport sport auto. Had the e92 for 3 years and 39000 miles and when we parted company (sob ) the lifetime mpg was just over 54mpg. Only had the 4er for 6 weeks and so far on the 2000 miles on it mpg is at 52.5. I was hoping for a little better I suppose, but we'll see.

335i with MPPK/MPE and 8AT - 28 city, 36+ highway, and not using eco-pro mode. On a 1400-mile trip with 2 overnight stops, I averaged 34.7 mpg while driving 70-75 MPH average speed.

We managed 506 miles on a tank on our (gasoline) F31 Msport Sportwagon. Eco Pro and cruise control baby! That was with an hour of stopped traffic in Pennsylvania, too.
I pick up my F30 tomorrow morning so I'll be sure to put it to the test.

I have the same setup and am currently getting 21. Is there any truth to it getting better over time? Granted, I work about 4 miles away and there are about 10 traffic lights which always seem to be red, so I always seem to be accelerating which doesnt help.

20-28 mpg city depending on how I drive. 34-38 mpg highway with cruise & eco-pro. Exceeds EPA's expectations and mine.

My fuel consumption is getting worse. It now has 13k.
Although admittedly I have been driving it much harder. 328i, getting 580km full tank now whereas when new I was getting about 700km |

9.5L/100km or 25mpg with 3000km on the car.
70% Highway 30% City During initial acceleration, the L/100km gage pegs to the full right (max consumption). In the end the car has the same economy as my dad's 2004 4 cyl engine. I just thought it would be closer to what BMW claims that it would be.

335i 8AT:
22.5 miles per gallon according to my car after about 10,500 miles. I have a 70/30 split of city vs highway miles. Most of the time the car is in Comfort mode, but I switch into EcoPro and use cruise control once I'm up to speed on the highway. I never use A.S.S.

Just did a 700 mile drive, and another 700 to go. Car averaged 32.7 or 32.8 MPG. Drove in a combination of eco and comfort, with speeds ranging from 75-85. Car does have a BMS Tune, and I do like getting on it occasionally.
Happy with the numbers. I figure I could get 33.5 or 34 with a bit more granny driving and without the tune.

2012 335i RWD Sportline 8AT:
21-25 mpg city driving (EcoPro and Sport) 30 mpg Highway (Sport) 30-36 mpg Highway (EcoPro) On the highway I have no problem achieving 30mpg in Sport mode. In EcoPro I can achieve 36 mpg. Of course if I go in Sport or Sport+ and stomp on the gas my fuel economy will go way down.

I'm very happy so far, about 50/50 hwy city driving I'm averaging 22.7 mpg, my 2011 g37xs was around 19.5mpg
Had a 100 mile trip recently, averaged 29.9 with a mix of Eco and sport mode, a couple strong pulls and averaging 75mph I remember when my then new 2004 325i would get 27-28mpg on that same 100 mile trip |

I wouldn't say I'm disappointed, but I'm not impressed. I average 28-29mpg on my 320i. I drive 90% hwy and 10% street. So I don't see why I can't hit 30 or more like advertised.

I must have fluffy slippers on my right foot. I average 8L/100km in my 335i Touring, which exceeds my expectations compared to a N/A 2.5L Subaru Legacy previously, which averaged 8.8L/100km.
I get 600km or 370 miles before the first low fuel indicator chimes in.
