One has to compare it in relation to weight.
A car that is 2x as heavy may consume 2x as much
fuel as another, and still be efficient enough.
And as you say it yourself, the milage you get
ie. 25Mpg is probably not bad at all for a car
as heavy as a 9-5... and sure enough its not
the best there is around.
A X5 4.6i is less then 2x as heavy then a 9-5
but still it will burn twice the fuel... its such
cars that pose a problem in the long run.
Regards,
Coolknight
