I have an '06 M35x and I am getting 19 mpg. I have only checked gas mileage twice in 10,000 miles. Prior car was a 2003 M45 and I got 20 mpg. Not unhappy but I did think my gas mileage would go up with the new one. On another subject, the M45 was terrifying in the snow and M35x is a beast. Very happy.

Replying to: joegolfer1 (Feb 08, 2007 12:21 pm) Are there any M45 owners (prefer over 1 year old, so it shows broke in gas mileage) that can share their gas mileage as well as the driving style and city/highway %. I have a M45 and it seems that I basically get same city or highway, which is around 20 (say 18.5 city and 20.3 highway). Is this normal? |

Dang! You couldn't wait until Feb 8 to ask that question?  We were headed full-on into 2 years of nobody caring about the gas mileage of this car!

Maybe all the M45 (and M35) owners are used to the terrible gas mileage and trying to forget about the pain? For now, the gas price is low, so no big deal, but it must be hurting back in late 2007 and majority of 2008.  I am used to the bad mileage already, but just feel it odd that I get almost the same gas mileage on city and highway - well a little over 1.5 MPG difference. This is not normal to me, thus the post/question. Anyone mind share their experiences/thoughts?

I have a new 2008 M35x with 500 miles on it that is getting about 10 MPG (mostly city) and revving high 2900 RPM's at 70 mph. It does not seem to go into overdrive. Has anyone else had this issue or do you think it will improve after some additional miles?

Replying to: avj23 (Jan 28, 2009 8:35 pm) Even for break in period, with AWD, 10MPG seems low. Unless it is very congested city and you have a lead foot and somewhat short trip (less than 10 miles each way). I get 15 when driving very aggressive in heavy city traffic and get 18 when take it easy.
