To be fair, UK gas mileage numbers are always higher than US numbers, for two reasons. 1) US and UK use different gas mileage verification (we have EPA, they have...). 2) A gallon in the UK is bigger than our gallon. It is not precisely the same unit of measurement.
- evck 14y agoYep, US EPA's 5 cycle analysis tends to produce lower MPG number.
- codex_irl 14y agoWhen you convert the gallon sizes for US, it gets 52 MPG. No major engine servicing required until over 200k miles - why is the 5 series diesel not for sale in the US, seems nuts. Top Gear claimed last year that its pretty much "the perfect car"...I want :)
