Specifications
As for fuel consumption, the engine achieves on average 15.2 mpg (15
L/100 km), at worst 9.3 mpg (25 L/100 km) and at best 23.4 mpg (10
L/100 km).
The engine was given a short development time, causing the BMW design
team to use only trusted technology from prior design and implementation
experience. The engine does not use titanium valves or connecting rods.
Variable intake geometry was considered but rejected on grounds of
unnecessary complication.
