3.0 sd twin turbo dates/prices confirmed for the UK
Powerful new BMW X5 revealed 27 June 2007 by Adrian Hearn BMW has revealed details of its most powerful diesel SUV ever – the X5 3.0sd. Using a twin-turbocharged 3-litre engine, the diesel produces 286bhp and an enormous 427lb/ft of pulling power. This means the 4x4 will accelerate from 0-62mph (100kph) in 7 seconds before running out of steam at 146mph. And the frugal engine means the X5 will still manage an impressive 34.4mpg, while overtaking and hill-climbing is made easier with the huge pulling power delivered at just 1,750rpm. The 3.0sd is 52bhp more powerful than the standard 3-litre X5, and to cope with this, BMW has fitted uprated brakes. As with the standard model, power is transmitted to the 4x4 via a six-speed automatic gearbox to all four-wheels. And those wanting a sportier version can opt for the M Sport pack, which boasts 19-inch alloys, sports suspension, sports seats and a more aerodynamic bodykit. Production of the 3.0sd begins in the USA in August with the X5 expecting to hit UK forecourts in October. Prices start at £42,630 for the 3.0sd SE, rising to £47,675 for the 3.0sd M Sport.

from paultan.org:
"The E70 [COLOR=#686868 ! important][COLOR=#686868 ! important]BMW [COLOR=#686868 ! important]X5[/COLOR][/COLOR][/COLOR] will also get a more powerful diesel variant, and no prizes for guessing which engine will supply that power - the award winning 3.0 liter twin turbodiesel that first appeared in the 535d. The BMW X5 3.0sd will likely put out similar power figures to the 535d, 335d, and X3 3.0sd - 286 [COLOR=#686868 ! important][COLOR=#686868 ! important]horsepower[/COLOR][/COLOR] and 580Nm of torque. This same engine will also find it’s way into a 635d, spied recently on test runs." so whats with the 400 something nm of torque then? and not much difference in 1-100 time. onyl 1.3 seconds |

The imprtnat thing that they haven't mentioned in that article is that BMW are also rolling out their EfficientDynamics package across the range. That means that the emissions now fall below the 225g/km for both the 3.0d (214 g/km) and 3.0sd (216 g/km).
If you have a 3.0d on order I would check whether you are due to get the upgraded car...it will make a significant impact to residuals and also runing costs. |

Does this rule out the rumored 3.5 TT non-diesel as a potential new offering for MY2008 ? I know this is diesel and is in addition to the 3.0si... but if they're announcing this now, what about further announcements ?
Regardless, this sounds very tempting - I'll have to study up on diesel vs. gas for long term (I guess you can consider it an American thing). |
