My new G90 M5

There is really little practical reason for this to exist, but it has been a fun toy after one day. Successfully getting 6mpg in hybrid mode.

Did you leave the zero after the 6 off?

Id say your vehicle has a gas leak or a math problem.

6 mpg? Something is fishy.

My R8 gets 12 mpg and that’s a N/A V10.

lol. This is why I always tell people to NEVER purchase a used BMW M. They are the most commonly abused cars on the road. 😆

I’m getting around 28, full charge every 2-3 days. I’m about half tank by end of work week (225-250 miles), roughly 205-210 till empty on the gauge. I used to get about 320 range on my prev g80 m3. I’ve been really happy with this boat so far lol.

How many miles did you get it with?
What were your M1 settings?
