Going from 591hp to 627hp of the CS adds 36hp, or 6.1%. I hope you can understand that 6.1% is less than 10%.

Even worse, the f10 m5 also used the s63tu engine and had only 552hp.

S63B44T0. While F90 uses S63B44T4 - a very different engine.

After taking another look at your list on the front page does your info mean that the current 4 series ICE models including the M4 will be discontinued after this generation?

I don't believe so, however, there's no good information about the successor yet.

Don't all versions of the G8X come with the S58B30T0? They range from 453hp in the M2, up through 550hp in the 3.0 CSL. Or 543 for the M3 CS, if we put the 3.0 off limits since it's not really a production car. 453-->543 is a 20% increase with just a factory tune.

Officially, G80 and G82 manuals and 3.0 CSL use S58B30O0. So what we have with S58 is this:

S58T is designed to produce in the neighborhood of 500hp. Used in M2, it is intentionally detuned to 453hp. And this sequence of events is the key difference from the dumb argument above: the more powerful original version is released first, and then it gets a less powerful version. So yeah, it's a 10% change but in the totally wrong direction.

S58O, on the other hand, does indeed end up with a large jump (473hp->553hp), however, the 3.0 CSL is a unique hand-built car, and even if the engines are not hand-built (I wasn't following the PR too closely, not sure if this was discussed), BMW has certainly gone through a selection process for those 50 engines that is not, and can't reasonably be done for the regular manufacturing line production.

Amazing memory, have you, my Jedi

- G45/G97 X3, iX3, X3M, Spartanburg, 8/24-10/33.
...
- NA5 iX3, Hungary and SLP, 8/25-10/33 (again, SLP starts with a delay of over a year).

Will there be both a G45 iX3 and a NA5 iX3 simultaneously?
That will be confusing...

Or maybe there will be no G45 iX3 and just the NA5 one?
In that case, there will be two different X3 platforms, one NA5 (Neue Klasse?) and on G-series?

I'm confused.

Definitely two different platforms in the same segment. This source is possibly wrong about G45 iX3. I should understand this better soon.

Is the F66 still UKL based vehicle? Not offering manual is not in line with their manual driving school campaign.

Any news about major X5 DESIGN CHANGE saw drafts of new sticking X2

[BMW Kayto]

Love this Thread and been following a while now. Thank you so much for all the information ynguldyn

I hope you can answer this because i am interested in the new 1 series.

Will the F70 be a new model or will it be some sort of bigger facelift of the F40?

I believe the F70 will receive OS9, no bmw controller. Do you have any information on that?

Cheers and greetings from Munich

[Keks77719]

Hi everyone,

New here and really like all the infos!

Does anyone know if the M3 touring will get a facelift or maybe a CS version or if it’s more like a one shot before a totally new one much later?

Thanks and greeting forme Switzerland

[austrum]

Any updates to the G01 for MY24? Specifically around trim/color options.

The "i" in the model names of gas engine cars seems to be going away.

[swagon]

Unsure if it was added later to the program, but G60/1 540d xDrive is coming later after the launch

German news sites (e.g. BimmerToday) have speculated that the F70 will also get a PHEV-version. Do you have any insights on this?

If it does appear, it will not happen before 2025 (calendar year).

It is the same as G70 740d or latest 30d: 210 kW + 13 kW MH48V.
