Re: to all e60 520i owners..

may 523 owner share their FC? based on 33 to 34Km/Hr as stated on my ride, i getting 8.6Km(One Ltr) which is arnd 520Km on a 60 to 61 ltr tank.
Measure 2 time and the consumption seem consistent with the I drive reading, will cfm it for the third time soon.

agaration is 65% Expressway and 35% city/estate drive and over 95% in D Mode.

My 520i gives me a surpirsing 480km this week More off-peak hour highway driving this week.
But normally get about 450km. OBC says 8-8.2 km per litre of 98 RON. Normally it is 15km to and fro work in exciting CTE traffic.

Re: to all e60 520i owners..

I must say the new 5 is pretty fuel efficient. In my previous E39 525i, I was averaging 6.6km/l or 400km for a full tank. Running 18" staggered and using normal D mode. 60% city, 40% highway driving. Sibeh drinker!

Hi Guys,

Just out of curiosity, does the fuel consumption gets better the more u drive your car? Because i am on my third refuel and the first 2 tanks only did the most 400km max! Currently my milege is about 830km.
