650i gran coupe fuel consumption

romaineami · 08-13-2016, 09:30 AM

Hey everyone, came from a 2015 Bmw m4 f83 to a 650igc is the fuel consumption suppose to be that drastic of a difference?? [IMG][/IMG]

Yes, bit of a shock right? I used to average about 14-15 in my E90 M3 and so was a bit shocked to only see about 11-12mpg average in the 650. I wonder what the M-engines are like??

I drive mostly in sport and mostly around town, but not too much traffic so can zip about a bit, but still was a bit of a surprise!

Yeah caught me way off guard coming from a M car to a 650 I thought it would've been similar but man what a surprise lol

Just did a road trip from Phila to Nova Scotia and back. On the return trip I reset the trip computer. For 1200 miles of highway driving, I averaged 71 mph and got 26 mpg. Not bad in my opinion. 2013 650xi.

You drove 3 miles in what seems to be city traffic.

Reset the stats, drive it like you regularly would for a few days or a week, then check the MPG.

My 2014 M6 GC averages about 13 MPG city driving Sport mode and occasional eco; stop and go traffic downtown San Diego. highway (Sport + mode) it's about 22-25 depending on speed. Overall about 17 - 18 MPG combined.

drmlee · 08-15-2016, 01:58 PM

i dont really keep track but i think i get around 200-250 miles a tank. with gas so cheap now, it costs me $50 or less to fill from when the light turns on.

For M engine (M6) if you drive the car the way an M-car is supposed to be driven you can get 10-11 over the town. If you drive like Toyota (lol) around 14 in town and 20 on free way ... I think you guys drive your cars very hard because I used to get 15-16 when I had my F13 650i and now I am around 11-12...

Very small sample sizes are meaningless when it comes to average mileage. Look at it after a tank full.

MotownMJ · 08-18-2016, 08:18 AM

WOW- That's pretty extreme. I have about 28k on the clock, averaged about 20MPG before DINAN S1 conversion, 16MPG now. That's actually calculating with trip ODO also to confirm readout on dash. in traffic I always use Comfort +, but unless you are in SPORT+ mode 24/7, I don't think 10MPG average is realistic.

romaineami · 08-21-2016, 06:36 AM

It's since been a lot better, not sure what was going on with it those 3 days

Dcm1952 · 08-22-2016, 11:38 AM

I drive in Sport Mode and average 17/18 mpg with mixed city and Highway driving.
Straight highway in Comfort Mode averages about 22 mpg

Autobacs · 08-22-2016, 11:02 PM

I average 19 MPG in comfort mode, mixed HWY city driving.

Easily average 25 MPG in steady state cruise control at 70 MPH or so.

I do drive gently with just occasional bursts of WOT as needed.
