2008 BMW 328i

For 2008, the best sports sedans and sports wagons in the compact luxury Segment receive new equipment including optional transmission paddle shifters mounted behind the Steering wheel available when the vehicle is equipped with a 6-speed STEPTRONIC automatic transmission and the Sport Package. New 16-in light alloy wheels are standard on with the 328i and 328xi Sedans. Those models now feature standard chrome tailpipe tips. In addition, HD Radio is now available for less at $350. EfficientDynamics: Efficient power The Bmw 328i Sedan and Sports Wagon and the all-wheel drive 328xi Sedan and Sports Wagon, are powered by BMW's 3.0-liter inline 6-cylinder with aluminum/magnesium engine block, producing 230 horsepower and 200 lb-ft of torque; a 15 hp and 15 lb-ft of torque improvement over the previous models. The 335i and 335xi Sedans obtain their motivation from the 3.0-liter twin-turbocharged inline 6-cylinder engine with a cast aluminum engine block producing 300 horsepower and 300lb-ft of torque. This is a 45 hp and 80 lb-ft of torque improvement over the 2006 330i models. The BMW twin-turbo 6-cylinder engine It is the most powerful engine within BMW's wide range of inline 6-cylinder engines that does not wear an 'M' badge. The twin-turbo engine, designated N54, develops a maximum output of 300 horsepower in US specification from 3.0 liters displacement and generates peak torque of 300 lb-ft for powerful acceleration in any situation. And it achieves these results using technology that might surprise students of BMW history: turbocharging. Although it is standard equipment on its highly acclaimed diesel engines, BMW has not used turbocharging with a road-going gasoline powerplant since the 1980's. Until now, the BMW 745i Sedan, which debuted in 1981, and the iconic BMW 2002 Turbo, introduced at the 1973 Frankfurt auto show, were the only two standard production, gasoline-powered BMWs to employ the technology.
