I don't think they had to use turbos to achieve that power, ahm, 414 HP from NA 4L anyone? The turbos are probably for the better torque curve and better mileage. And easy tunability if and when the competition catches up. And funny thing is even at 408HP from 4.4L, it beats 500 from supercharged 5.5L in specific output and this is not even an M engine. | |

While the shots have given us an overall idea of what to expect from the next-generation 5-series both inside and out we didn't exactly know what would be under the hood of the new sedan. But thanks to a new report, we have a little more info. When the new 5-series finally bows likely in 2010 it will be available with the same twin-turbo V8 found in the X6, says BMWBlog.com. Just as in X6-guise, the twin-turbo V8 will make about 400 horsepower in the 5-series which would put it in the same neighborhood as BMW's E39 M5. It is also believed that the base 5-series will come equipped with the same twin-turbo six found in the BMW 335i and 135i. Design of the sixth generation 5-series codenamed F10 is being overseen by BMWs head designer, Adrian van Hooydonk. Unfortunately, the heavy camouflage of this test car hides most of the car's details. The next-generation 5-series is expected to feature an eight-speed automatic transmission with an all-wheel drive option being available. A range of engines will be available in the 5-series and wagon and M5 versions will follow about a year after the car's initial introduction. Outside of the M5, the next-generation 5-series will be available with a wide range of engines including four, six and eight cylinder engines although only the twin-turbo six and eight-cylinder engines are expected to make it to the U.S. The new 5 will also have Park Distance Control and an around view monitor system, similar to Infiniti's Around View Monitor.
