Given that the 328i churns out 245ps (claimed), what are the odds of the 328d being the 184ps 4-cyl?... And then what would the 6-cyl be called?! The most natural given the power outputs would be to label those 2 engines 320d (4-cyl) and 328d (6-cyl) in the US
Two things, I doubt we get two diesel engines for the F30/F31, I suspect it will only be the four banger. Second, if they do offer both, for NA, even in different platforms, I bet they use x28i to signify for the four cylinder and x35i to signify the six.

BMWNA will not offer a car with the x20i tag, no matter how little hp it has.
