All of my other Bimmers match their EPA ratings (which I expected for this one), but it is not even close. I have experimented with all different driving styles and I cannot get this to improve at all. Hopefully they come out with a computer update that corrects this a bit.
Fuel economy aside, I love this SAV. It drives far better than I expected.

Do you have the 20" rims? If so, the extra rolling resistance may explain the difference between the published and actual fuel economy.
