G60 520i in europe has more advanced 48V system than other regions
The G60 520i manufactured in plant Dingolfing has different 48V systems.
Models facing Europe: B48TU2 with P1 ISG 48V (provide extra 18ps, overall 208ps) Models facing other regions: B48TU2 with P0 BSG 48V (provide extra 11 ps, overall 190ps) Even manufactured in the same plant, the 48V systems are different. Why BMW did this? |

That’s really interesting….I’ll bet there’s some EU vs US regulation behind this

This has nothing to do with the states. There is no small ICE there.
In China, BMW apparently wants the big engines to be bought. |

Many things are different on BMWs depending on where they are sold. One obvious item being suspension tuning. Cars for the US and other countries with poor roads or differing customer expectations result in changes. As do regulations. Pretty normal. |
