2 Answers
2011 BMW X5 actual fuel consumption is 10-11L per 100 kilometers. Below is the extended information: 1. Exterior: The 2011 BMW X5 features a large-sized kidney grille on the front, with angel-eye headlight clusters incorporating lens structures on both sides of the grille, and fog light areas on the lower bumper. The side profile showcases a waistline that extends from the front fender to the taillight clusters, paired with sporty black alloy wheels. At the rear, the redesigned LED light clusters offer high visibility when illuminated. 2. Interior: The 2011 BMW X5's dashboard utilizes extensive genuine leather and real wood materials, creating a strong sense of luxury. It is equipped with a 12.3-inch full LCD instrument cluster, a 12.3-inch central control LCD screen, a new-style three-spoke steering wheel, and an electronic gear lever.
I drove a 2011 BMW X5 diesel model, with actual fuel consumption ranging from 14 to 16 liters per 100 km in the city and 9 to 11 liters on the highway. During daily commuting in heavy traffic, it could go up to 18 liters, while on long trips it would drop to around 8 liters. The fuel consumption was significantly higher than the official data, which claimed 11 liters in the city but was hard to achieve in reality. My car was eight years old, and maintenance had a big impact—replacing the air filter saved about 1 liter. Keeping tire pressure at the right level also helped reduce waste. I usually drive smoothly, avoiding sudden starts and hard braking, which keeps fuel consumption within a reasonable range. However, the monthly fuel expenses are still substantial, working out to over 1 yuan per kilometer.
