Yesterday, BMW of North America accepted the Wards 10 Best Engines award for its groundbreaking 3.0-liter BMW Advanced Diesel engine at the North American International Auto Show. For the 2010 model year and the second year in a row, BMWs sequential twin-turbo inline-6 diesel engine was elected to the 10 Best Engines list by the Wards AutoWorld panel of expert judges. To win a place on the 10 Best Engines list, an engine must score highly in measures of horsepower, torque, refinement, technical relevance, and comparative data. When we accepted this award last year for BMWs then-new Advanced Diesel engine, no one could predict for certain how Americans would adopt BMW Diesel in the coming months, said Hans Hohenner, General Manager of Drivetrain Development for BMW Group. |
