Definitely true. The X3 xDrive20d makes the same hp and more torque than my X3 2.5i which has an engine that's a decade old. It's surprising how in a matter of a few years, a 4-cyl diesel is making the kind of power that used to be found in a 6-cyl petrol.

Plus, the 4-cyl diesel X3 is faster than the old 2.5 6-cyl. Wow my car is ancient.
