The engine is being included in the also new BMW X1 xDrive28i.The first four-cylinder petrol engine with BMW TwinPower Turbo technology offers a substantial power upgrade as well as a significant efficiency improvement; rated power: 180 kW/245 hp, rated torque: 350 Newton meters.Closely modelled on the BMW in-line six-cylinder engines, the all-new 2.0-litre engine with all-aluminium crankcase comes with BMW TwinPower Turbo technology featuring high-performance twin-scroll turbocharging system, High Precision Injection direct petrol injection with innovative solenoid injectors, and the latest further enhanced version of the BMW-patented VALVETRONIC variable valve control system "Good bye sweet sixes... my feeling is kind of mixed. Of course we welcome the extra power, torque and efficiency with the new block. But I think I'm going to miss the smoothness of straight NA six. NA engine tend to have a certain feel to the engine. Just like NA V8, V10 etc. there is more soul to it.Like Jeremy Clarkson opinion (not to be taken seriously always) on VW scirocco R's engine - powerful and all, but no feel.Hope this new 4 pot carry some soul!</p></blockquote><p></p>
