EPA: Gas mileage inflated on 4 Mini Cooper models
October 22, 2014 - 11:35 AM
DETROIT (AP) — The U.S. government has told BMW to reduce the gas mileage
estimates on the window stickers on four of its Mini Cooper models after an
audit found the figures were overstated.
The discrepancy, which varies from one to four miles per gallon depending on
model, was discovered in testing at the Environmental Protection Agency's
lab in Ann Arbor, Michigan, the agency said in a statement Wednesday.
The reductions affect the 2014 Mini Cooper three-door and Mini Cooper three-
door S models with manual and automatic transmissions. The biggest
discrepancy was in highway mileage, but city and combined mileages also must
be reduced.
It's the fourth time in the past two years that the EPA has found that an
automaker overstated gas mileage test results. The automakers do their own
estimates based on testing guidelines from the EPA. Hyundai-Kia, Ford and
Mercedes-Benz all had to reduce mileage estimates on some of their models as
the EPA increased its auditing efforts.
"To provide consumers with the most accurate, reliable and repeatable fuel
economy values, we are continuing to strengthen our oversight to ensure fair
competition among automakers," said Christopher Grundler, director of the
EPA's Transportation and Air Quality office.
With the Mini Coopers, the biggest reduction will come from the S model with
a manual transmission. BMW will have to cut the highway mileage estimate
from 38 mpg to 34 mpg. City mileage for the same model gets shaved by one
mpg from 25 to 24.
A Mini spokesman said he was checking into the EPA action and would comment
later. | d***k
