Very curious about this too, especially the highway MPG after break in. My F82 got 30+, I hope my G82 is capable of that.

I drove from Washington DC to Las Vegas and back with my M4 Comp. On major stretches of the trip I averaged a little over 28 MPG. Granted this was on Eco mode but I also averaged a little over 80 MPH at the same time

I rarely finish a tank under 20mpg. Usually, it's in the 22-25mpg range. I drive in Efficient practically all of the time, and have racked up mostly highway miles.

I was once able to sustain 31mpg over half a tank. Exclusively highway, 55-65mph.

I get 11mpg average in my wife's X3M and expect the same in my soon to be delivered M3. Sport Plus pretty much all the time. If I was concerned about mileage I'd get a different car. I currently get 11-12 in my Stelvio quad.

For me it's definitely a factor. I couldn't care less about 9-11 MPG spirited driving but I take a lot of country road trips and I also have to do 300 mile commutes at least once or twice a month. If I can't cruise on the highway and break a reasonable MPG without stopping for gas or worrying about how far the next station is constantly it's a pain.

I almost pulled the trigger on an X4M but couldn't get past the 19 MPG highway, and over on the forum folks were saying that's pretty spot on. Great thing about my F82 and what I expect will happen with my G82 is they can get good MPG at a steady cruise. Same reason I could never get an EV and be tethered to charging stations.

26 mpg (mostly highway)

I think that was the number when I last saw it. I sort of don't believe it, though. I'll confirm it when I can

avg about 15-16L/100km on a tank which is 15-16 US MPG. More city than highway but I do gun it most of the time and drive in Sport+ engine.

I didn't expect Prius-like MPG, but I do wish the fuel tank is bit larger. at ~55L and this type of MPG you are easily your local gas station's 2nd fav customer after the other guy who drives a G63

15G fuel tank in a 500hp car is a bit annoying.

Cruise control at 80MPH - 26 MPG with 5610 miles on car

Virginia International Raceway - 2 weekends and 4 tanks of gas - 5 to 6 MPG - smiles ear to ear!
