As far as I know, WLTP is for European roads (more city driving) and EPA is for US roads (more freeway driving).
For example, WLTP of xdrive 40 is between 246-257 miles. Whereas xdrive 50 is between 365-380 miles.

You are comparing an X50 against a X40. In Europe you have 2 options, in the US only the X50 with a bigger battery (hence more range) is the only trim available.
