28 doesn't have to actually match the HP. its to tell people that this 3er has more power than a 325 or 320.
if bmw is to put 320i on a 328 or 325 or 320 (all these have the same displacement a 2.0l Turbocharged engine) people aren't going to know what power the 3er have. in my country you can order 320, 325, 328 (i think), 335. it would be a little confusing don't you think?
