I've been driving a BMW 5 Series for over three years, mainly for daily commuting. Fuel consumption varies by driver but generally follows a pattern. In the city, it's about 0.12 liters per kilometer, rising to 0.15 liters in heavy traffic. On the highway, it's more economical at 0.07-0.09 liters. My 520i with a 2.0-liter engine is fuel-efficient, but my friend's 530i with a six-cylinder engine consumes an extra 0.01-0.02 liters per kilometer. Driving habits make a big difference—gentle acceleration and braking save fuel, while using air conditioning or carrying extra weight increases consumption. Older cars tend to use more fuel, but changing the oil and maintaining tire pressure at 35 psi can improve efficiency. The newer hybrid 530e can go as low as 0.04 liters per kilometer in pure electric mode, ideal for city driving with easy charging access. On average, it's around 0.1 liters per kilometer—not exorbitant, but regular maintenance is key.
