What is the fuel consumption of the BMW X5 with a 4.8L displacement?
2 Answers
BMW X5 with a 4.8L displacement generally has a combined fuel consumption of around 8-10 liters per 100 kilometers. Fuel consumption varies depending on driving habits, road conditions, traffic congestion, load, fuel quality, use of air conditioning or heating, and whether the vehicle is in the break-in period. Below is relevant information about fuel consumption: 1. Introduction: Fuel consumption generally refers to constant-speed fuel consumption. Constant-speed fuel consumption is the vehicle's fuel consumption per 100 kilometers obtained in standardized fuel consumption tests for certain types of vehicles under constant-speed driving conditions. 2. Test methods: Tests can be conducted on roads or on chassis dynamometers, and the fuel consumption per 100 kilometers is then calculated using the 'flow meter method' or 'carbon balance method'.
I drove a BMW X5 4.8 version for several years. That car had a massive displacement, with city driving fuel consumption basically ranging from 14 to 16 liters per 100 kilometers, while on the highway it could drop to 11 to 13 liters. I used to take it on long trips, and the fuel tank would drop rapidly in traffic jams, mainly because it was a V8 engine—plenty of power but a real gas guzzler, far from modern small-displacement turbocharged cars. Driving habits have a huge impact; rapid acceleration and idling will burn extra fuel. I recommend developing smooth driving habits for such cars, and regular maintenance can also help save some fuel. Honestly, if you buy this car, you should be prepared for the fuel costs. I could spend one to two thousand yuan a month on gas, but it was worth it for that exhilarating acceleration.
