Generating 320 hp and 300 lb.-ft. of torque at 1,500 rpms, this TwinPower Turbo virtually eliminates turbo lag thanks to Double-VANOS "steplessly" variable valve timing. Direct fuel injection cools the engine to a higher compression ratio of 10.2:1 vs. 6:1 and 7:1 in other turbos. And BMW's inspired use of the latest TwinPower Turbo and Vanos technologies optimize fuel-efficiency and heighten an already powerful performance.
All this translates into superior emission control, greater fuel efficiency and, most importantly, a thrilling performance – all encased in an innovative, all-aluminum engine block, with cast iron sleeves for added durability.
