By looking at the fuel consumption for X6 3.5i, I predict the 2011 3.5i will have it in the range of 15-16 / 20-21 mpg.

but with n55 engine it might be better, more close to 535 gt 2011, presumably at 25mpg?????????????

Where are you getting mpg numbers for the 535gt ?

25mpg for this heavy vehicle - we are getting into the hybrid space...

Base invoice price is 8% less than suggested retail price rounded off.
e.g. xDrive50i retail price is $59,275 and 8% less of that is $54,333 rounded off to $54,350 being the invoice.

$59,275 minus $875 destination charge=$58,400 less 8% =$53,730 as invoice.

i see litre/100? how u equate to mpg?

[X5 Meister]

17.5 liter/100 km = 0.175 liter/km = 5.714 km/liter

5.714 km/liter x 3.7854 L/gallon = 21.63 km/gallon

21.63 km/gallon x 0.62 km/mile = 13.4mpg

Convert MPG to L/100km and l/100 km to MPG Online Calculator

Combined city+highway= 23.29 mpg for N55 35i X5 as compared to 21.19 mpg for N54 35i for X6.
