Another great method is to just type the conversion you would like into Google. It converts nearly anything these days.

12.5 liters / 100 kilometers to miles per gallon - Google Search

Hard to believe.... No way. X6 3.5i is rated 15/20 - see specs on the bmwusa.com. You cant possibly get combined 21.19 with these city/hwy ranges.

Something is wrong with the numbers they posted for X5 3.5i...

BTW, my 335i with N54 is rated at 17/26, and I am averaging 20mpg. And that is for the much much lighter vehicle.

All BMW's are rigorously tested for fuel consumption. The car is driven downhill, with all systems turned off, in a perfect vacuum.

Same test for everyone. This is not a BMW specific test but EU mandated.

Yes I know. The same useless test that does not reflect real world conditions whatsoever.

And I suspect over time that the manufacturers have been getting better at achieving a better test result without necessarily getting better real-world figures.
