Exactly, nowadays I have been driving it only in E -Drive and it's been more than 2 months since I last filled it up while covering a couple of hundreds

Wow, I am not getting that. I am using a mixture of sport, where I need it, comfort on motorways, and pure electric round town, and I am only getting about 270 miles between fill ups

Surely sport mode is the most petrol consuming mode ?? I dont understand this cos my driving modes are varied ( as stated above) but I am currently on 245 miles on the trip with 42 mile range left, averaging 33.2/gal ?

Max usage out of a single tank here: 2500 km / 1550 miles. Obviously not on a single drive. Rather, daily short trips doen fully electric. Average over 21'500 km / 13'360 miles: 62 mpg. Max range indication on a full tank: 916 km / 570 miles.
More realistic range when flying across the Autobahn at whatever speed traffic permits - incl. maxing out when possible: 450 km / 280 miles. I just did a trip to Munich, which is 300 km from here. Had to fill up half way through the return leg. There was a lot of hard acceleration and slowing down again, as it was pretty busy. So, by no means the most efficient way of driving. |

Pure EV
Bought mine in late May, have put almost 1500 mi on it and Filled up once. Now granted I only drive it no more than 10-15 miles when I do, so I am mostly in pure electric mode with the exception of when I get the opportunity to put it into Sport and open it up.

Got 90 miles on a tank recently. It was fun.

Besides no other car gives me the driving pleasure regardless of mileage in my daily commute as BMW i8 gives . Even looking at it in the morning is putting a glimpse on my face let alone get behind the driver's seat
