The diesel (which I love and want one) is not getting anywhere near the MPG that this is supposed to get.

I agree though if its to expensive you waist all the savings right back in.
Plugins aren't marketed for mpg but rather the people who have short commutes and stay at home people who do short errands. And the gas motor is for when you do need to go far without range anxiety. Essentially 2 cars in one, that's not for everyone.

I had a volt, and fully enjoyed it. This x5 would replace my volt nicely, but it should have at least a 40 mi range to make up for the low gas power rating. For now I'm enjoying my 14 2500 6.7 cummins
