I had a '17 Audi S6 previously, and V8's are awesome, but I also have little kids, so being ecologically more responsible is also awesome. Edit to add: I do currently have 45e on order, it was pushed back and I was never able to get a test drive before my Cayenne came in. So very shortly there will be a very well optioned X5 45e in the Austin area if anyone is going to be looking.
M50 is not 12MPG. Maybe if you drive it on the track.
I get 19-20 around town easy. Its not 28 I agree. But it will blow cayenne and 45 e off in any situation on the highway and off the lights. the smile on my face each time I floor it is so worth 8 MPg at 2 bucks a gallon
I was going off the 9mpg I averaged in my S6. 😁 That said, at 455hp, 134 of which is electric and immediate, you may not beat me off the line (I know you'd catch up eventually). Still not at my 1200 mile break in so I haven't pushed it hard, but it is quick.
