Straight six-cylinder engine
BMW straight six-cylinder engines guarantee unsurpassed refinement, smooth power delivery, muscular performance and impressive fuel consumption - direct-injection petrol and turbocharged diesel versions alike.
Today's 3.0-litre BMW straight six-cylinder engines come in direct-injection petrol and turbocharged common rail diesel form. All feature innovative technology, intelligent lightweight construction and state-of-the-art combustion management.
The petrol models now achieve levels of fuel efficiency previously attained only by diesel engines, thanks to innovations such as direct injection (High Precision Injection) with lean burn, Valvetronic, double-Vanos and ancillary units that operate on demand. In addition, the use of lightweight components such as an aluminium-magnesium alloy crankshaft, a magnesium cylinder head cover and composite camshafts gives the engine a low weight that belies its high power.
The straight six-cylinder petrol engine line-up is topped by a high-performance Twin Turbo variant. It's an emphatic demonstration of the BMW six's potential.
The turbocharged diesel sixes, too, offer outstanding performance and efficiency. These all-aluminium engines with third-generation common rail injection deliver performance, refinement and effortless power delivery, together with impressively low fuel consumption and emissions. BMW straight six-cylinder engines are available in all model ranges.
Further information about the official fuel consumption and the official specific CO2 emissions for new passenger automobiles can be obtained from the ‘The Passenger Car (Fuel Consumption and CO2 Emissions Information) Regulations’, which are available free of charge at all sales outlets and from this address: DAT Deutsche Automobil Treuhand GmbH, Hellmuth-Hirth-Str. 1, 73760 Ostfildern-Scharnhausen, Germany.
