What is the actual fuel consumption of the BMW 530?
2 Answers
The BMW 530 has a fuel consumption of 8.9 liters per 100 kilometers. Factors affecting fuel consumption: Poor driving habits: behaviors such as squeezing into gaps, sudden stops and starts, and driving at high speeds in low gear can all increase fuel consumption. Engine carbon buildup: carbon deposits in the engine can also lead to higher fuel consumption. Low tire pressure: insufficient tire pressure and underinflated tires can also cause the vehicle to consume more fuel. Before driving, it's advisable to check the tire inflation, and tire pressure can be measured with instruments. Timely tire inflation can reduce fuel consumption. Overloaded trunk: carrying too many items in the trunk can also increase the vehicle's fuel consumption. Methods to reduce fuel consumption: Maintain a steady speed while driving, avoid sudden braking and acceleration, and perform regular vehicle maintenance.
My 2019 BMW 530 has been driven for almost four years now. During daily commutes in the city where traffic is often terrible, the dashboard frequently shows around 12 liters per 100km with the AC on in summer, but based on my detailed fuel consumption records, it actually averages slightly over 13 liters. Weekend trips to the suburbs with family are much better - maintaining 110 km/h with cruise control brings it down to just over 7 liters. This car seems most suitable for suburban commuting, as city center driving really burns through fuel. By the way, I recently saw on forums that the new hybrid version is very fuel-efficient, which makes me regret buying mine too early. I'd suggest joining a local car owners' group after getting your vehicle to compare average fuel consumption - the difference can be huge depending on road conditions.
