This news couldn't have come at a better time, as I'm driving cross country in costA rica in my small diesel montero, averaging 30mpg, with plenty of torque to pull my family around. I was just thinking how brilliant this would be in the states. All of my dailies would be diesels.
But I recently passed on the x5 diesel bc the the 35i motor was putting out similar economy. I avged 21 in combined, 24 highway, and 14 towing 6k lbs round trip on the grape vine. I'm guessing the new 6cyl diesel will blow the old one out of the water in terms of efficiency. Can't wait
