Frequently asked questions
BMW 540d xDrive: what you need to know
Well-argued answers to the most asked questions about this model, based on Caralogy data and simulations.
Caralogy does not reproduce manufacturer figures: we recalculate every number through physics simulation, starting from SCx, mass and the power curve. This is why our figures at 130 km/h differ from WLTP. Full methodology on the dedicated page.
