Well if it does get tweaked power and torque curves as some here think then you can expect the limit to be increased over that for the X5/6M by probably 3-400rpm. When you consider that the last M3 was only revving 500rpm more than that from it's small capacity N/A unit I don't see why so many here view this engine as low revving? With regards to the possible tweaked DSC, I honestly don't know what to expect if anything. It definitely needs more than one MDM mode in my opinion. |

I'm pretty sure they can't squeeze 10/10 out of it when the engine is in the X6M probably because the mpg would be quite, quite crazy. With the M5 being potentially quite a bit lighter, they can really go to town with it. I know people don't buy these cars to save the pandas or whatever, but in these days and age, single figures or low tens would cause comment. |
