Based on BMW’s Advanced Diesel with BluePerformance there are a host of new diesel engines being introducing to the new 7 Series.


My German is not that great but from what I can make out there are 2 new engines being developed. One of which is an upgrade to the 335/535/3.0sd engine to 299HP. The other diesel engine is a complete new design. It is based on the same 3 litre engine having 3 turbochargers, which they suspect to have roughly 350HP. The latter is a replacement for the V8 745d, which was never released to the UK market.



I can only hope that these new Diesels will be installed into the facelift X5/X6 (+2009).
