F36 with B48 engine and ordering in AZ

7cardinals7 · 08-19-2015, 05:44 PM

Does anyone know when the new B48 4 cylinder engine will be available in the 4 Series Gran Coupe? Also, any recommendations on ordering at Invoice via any Arizona Dealers?

Hmm..I don't think the B48 will supersede the N20/N26. The B48 puts out 231hp in the Mini..well under the N20/N26 specs in HP and TQ. The 2016 320i is supposedly slated for it...but output is about the same as now, 180hp.

*EDIT. Reports say the the 328 will come back as the 330 with the B48. I haven't seen anything on the GC coming back with it as yet. I tend to think at least another year for GC series.......

I think the B48 will be a 2017 model year at the F36 at the earliest. Looking forward to it from my experience of it in a Mini Cooper S. So much less rattly than the N20!

The B48 is slated for the U.S. market beginning summer 2016.

Does anyone know if the F10 will get the B48 engine?

Or are they only reserved for the F30/F36?

F10 is almost done. G30 will get the B48 though.
