How about a tri-turbo 3 litre ?!
In next years I6 VTT will be tweaked to deliver approx 300PS. While standard I6 diesel will deliver just under 250PS.

Yes, BMW bet on multi-turbo diesel tech - the best way to achieve Efficient Dynamics. Also, who said NGV8D will be 4.5L or more? Eg. 3.6L or 4.0L V8 diesel with (multi)turbo tech will do just fine. Imagine 350 or even 400PS. With excellent fuel consumption.
