No idea if it can or it can't but I think the BMW engines have been reworked for better mileage so it just might be possible. If you use the turbo the 9-5 mileage drops down pretty quick. I would imagine that the 5 series might get better mileage under certain conditions and worse under others. The ratings are 20/30 manual and 21/29 for the auto 525i and 530i. SMG drops things down to 19/27. I often get under 29 in my auto Aero SW even in ideal conditions. The new bimmers might be close to the 9-5 in mpg. Either way the point is that I think Saab is heading the wrong way.
