Nice achievement, these new engines are miraculous, only a few years in the past it could have been loopy to even take into consideration that effectivity with this energy.Some folks nonetheless remorse the outdated NA engines (and I completely perceive their causes), however it’s onerous to complain about d.i., downsizing and turbocharging when you will get that form of gasoline consumption on 500+ hp automobiles should you do not ask for all the ability.I imply, with the S65/S85 it was nearly unimaginable to get 20 mpg even at low velocity cruising, they usually have been nowhere close to as high-performance as the brand new engines.
I’d have by no means thought you might get near 30mpg in a 500hp automotive. I got here from DSMS and Evos, with 2 liter 4 cylinders that obtained 18-22 with guide transmissions. That is superb.

I am going to do this in my G82 xDrive as quickly as I get the possibility. I’ve taken lengthy journeys in it, however I at all times find yourself taking a visit to Mexico alongside the best way.

One of many final bmw meetups I went to, a good friend in an F80 adopted me all the way down to the meetup spot, and he instructed me that he had a full tank once we left.
We obtained to the meetup spot after which we headed down south, even additional into some canyon driving. He pulled over to get fuel, saying he was on the fuel mild, which I believed was loopy, as a result of I used to be nonetheless barely above half a tank. I am pondering, there isn’t any approach, that F80 was solely getting 150 miles earlier than the fuel mild got here on.
I drove onerous within the canyons and drove one other 130 miles dwelling, stopping in Mexico just a few occasions, and nonetheless make it again to my neighborhood proper after the gasoline reserve mild got here on. The man lived like quarter-hour previous me, and he mentioned when he obtained dwelling, he was on the fuel mild once more.
Just like the automotive had a gap within the tank. I simply thought having a DCT and fewer listening to that automotive simply obtained trash mileage. I suppose that is not regular? :
