That direct-injection 4.4 masterpiece is the same engine you'll find under the hood of the X5 M and X6 M, but further tweaked and strengthened after considerable development by M Division to liberate more power. Forced induction makes it the first M saloon to be turbocharged. Yes, even BMW's fastest saloon now concentrates on lowering its CO2.
