Hi all,

I remember reading somewhere that a 2.0 Turbo gas engine would be available for the F10. I didn't see it among the engine offerings. Do you think such an engine would be offered anytime soon?

I think a 2.0T with 200-230hp would be very nice for the F10.

Hi Asyircali,

Bmw did not made any 4 Cylinders Gas engine for the E60.
They start with 520i - 6 Cyl. - 2.3 l - 170 HP then replaced by 523i - 2.5 l - 177 HP.

Fyi, Mercedes-Benz offer for the new E250 a 4 Cylinders Gas engine - 1.8 l - 204 HP.

Hi,

BMW E60 was available with 4-cylinder gas engine as 520i 170 hp for the last couple of years. This was not a turbo engine.
F10 will get
three 3000 ccm I6 engines
523i: 204 hp no turbo
528i: 258 hp no turbo
535i: 306 hp twin scroll turbo
one V8 twin 4400 ccm turbo engine
550i: 408 hp

one 2000ccm I4 turbo diesel engine
520d: 184 hp (available from 3Q/2010)

two 3000ccm I6 turbo diesel engines
525d: 204 hp
530d: 245 hp

These will be the engines at launch in March 2010. As always, many other variants will probably follow in years to come.

Best regards from Finland

I believe the petrol 520i E60 was I6 and not 4 cylinder engine
Check this:

I guess the 2.0T will be for the next Gen 3 series and 1 series

Yes,

in the beginning it was I6, but since around 2007 there was the new 520i with I4 - at least in Germany and Finland.

yes you are correct, it used to be 2.2 Liter I6 and last model year it was 2.0 I4, must be such a rubbish engine the 2.0 I4 non turbo, i really wish they made a 2.0 Turbo for our market as vehicle above 2.0 is around 600% import duty

Just been confirmed by BMW dealership owner here, the F10 for South Asia and Probably rest of Asia and Europe WILL get a 2 Liter Single Turbo Engine and will be named as 525i producing 230 bhp in March 2011 as a 2012 Model year. They will also add some new color choices and Interior Color choices and the Individual Line up around the same time.

At this point there will also be the M-Sport line.

I personally think that the 523i and 528i will have turbos at this time and will be called 525i and 530i.
But the 2.0 L4 turbo may well be a fact, but then called the 520i or 523i.

Just my 2 cents.

but i dont know if its a credible fact or just something he heard from BMW management and not an actual confirmation ...
