Low fuel consumption - M5POST

M-bitious · 07-29-2012, 05:10 AM

I just made a long 1,800 km trip, had the cruise control switch on most of the time at 135-140 km/h. I used an impressively low 10 litres in 100 km average. I could easily do more than 600 kms on a full tank.
Anyone want to do the mpg thingie?

Compared to the E60 M5 the fuel consumption is "boring"

Thats 2.5 gallons in 62 miles or 24 mpg. Pretty good and about the same as the e39 M5 but far better than the e60.

Certainly not a "guzzler"
