It is about hp from an engine for the fuel economy delivered. And I think the Z does a good job compared to the BMW 3.0 that you used in your example. Most here are buying their Z for maximizing performance versus value (economy being one factor of value) and like its predecessors, the 370 strikes the balance up towards the top of the list.
You need to recheck bmwusa, the X5 3.0 is:
Fuel consumption City/Highway 15/21 mpg
BMW North America . Just trying to make facts, facts.
