Does the X5 M50d xDrive 2025 with four-cylinder turbodiesel engine truly consume only 8.5 L/100 km?
The B57 3.0L quadruple-turbo diesel (only in 540i xDrive with gasoline for North America 2025) doesn't export to North America — only the 540i xDrive gasoline variant (triple turbocharged 3.0L, 382 hp) is offered in Canada. Declared consumption: 8.9 L/100 km on WLTP cycle. In real-world Montreal use (heavy congestion, cold climate 5 months annually), expect 10.2-11.5 L/100 km. The diesel M50d remains a strategic choice in Europe, not North America 2025 where BMW prioritizes gasoline engines and hybrid electrification.
