Unlike other car fuel economy surveys, TrueDelta's Gas Mileage Survey includes questions about how and where a car was driven. So you can get an idea of the BMW 7-Series's real-world gas mileage (MPG in US and UK, L/100km elsewhere) based on how and where you drive a car.
- view all responses; guests view a maximum of five MPG (or L/100km) gas mileage responses per BMW 7-Series powertrain
- filter gas mileage results based on driving style and driving conditions

About TrueDelta's BMW 7-Series Gas Mileage Survey
Government estimates often aren't indicative of actual, real-world gas mileage for the BMW 7-Series.
Here, unlike anywhere else, you can learn what actual fuel economy and gas mileage (MPG) to expect from the BMW 7-Series based on how you drive and the roads you typically drive on. TrueDelta's Gas Mileage Survey (formerly the Fuel Economy Survey) is the only one to ask BMW 7-Series owners about driving style, terrain, A/C use, driving speed, and other factors that can affect the BMW 7-Series's fuel economy and gas mileage in the real world.
And, members can now filter real-world BMW 7-Series gas mileage results by the most important factors.
