I think that when the N20 can achieve as good numbers as 24-30 mpg doing 75 mph, and especially considering its larger air resistance, it goes to show how fuel efficient a car it really is. |
My M Coupe got 28-30 mpg running between 80-85 mph consistently and might have returned over 26 mpg when running triple digit speeds, in theory at least...
Admittingly, it was 800 plus pounds lighter than the X1. I am impressed with the X1 nearly matching the highway efficiency of our previous N54 135i, up to about 85, where it does seem to start dropping off much more than the 1er did.
