What Our Members Are Saying about the Real Gas Mileage of the 2002 BMW 5-Series

2002 BMW 5-Series Real Gas Mileage: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2003 4dr Sedan 225-horsepower 3.0L I6
5-speed shiftable automatic RWD		 Excellent fuel mileage on the highway. I can average 32MPG driving at 65 MPH. Problem is... tough to keep it at 65. 75-80 is like driving 55 in most other vehicles. see full BMW 5-Series review
2002 BMW 5-Series Real Gas Mileage: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2003 4dr Sedan 225-horsepower 3.0L I6
5-speed shiftable automatic RWD		 Seems to guzzle gas in stop-and-go regime, even if I watch the consumption report as I drive. see full BMW 5-Series review
2002 4dr Sedan 225-horsepower 3.0L I6
5-speed manual RWD		 requires premium gas. see full BMW 5-Series review
2002 4dr Sedan 184-horsepower 2.5L I6
5-speed shiftable automatic RWD		 5 Series was terrific car but very poor on gas and used premium fuel. We knew about the mileage when purchased but this was one of the factors making us switch as we have 2 new drivers that would have kept this car driving more hours at a higher cost. see full BMW 5-Series review
