So B4P auto with AWD could be 33-37mpg average if most trips are not short local trips? B hybrid bit better than T4 and AWD bit worse so similar in the end to the T4 FWD auto?

Sort of, yes. Short trips and Autobahn speed (130+ km/h) are mileage killers, if you avoid those than you could contemplate 40mpg. Driving constantly at 130 km/h on European freeways returns 35 mpg on my T4 FWD.
