BMWNA To Attack the US Market with Six Diesel Models

Thanks to someone with an itchy posting finger at vwvortex we not only have further confirmation of BMWNA\'s diesel plans but a full outline of the models to expect. To recap we\'ve heard from a number of sources over the past year that BMW of North America plans to bring two new diesel engines to the US market. The plan is to focus more on efficiency and less on power as the 335d and X5 35d did with it\'s barn-burning diesel. But what we didn\'t know was the exact model mix BMW intended these engines for.

BimmerFile Review: BMW M550d xDrive

In the 1980’s BMW offered some of their first diesels to US consumers. To say they were not well received is an understatement. To some, diesels still remain dirty, noisy, less refined and offer little in terms of driving fun. However, this is partly based on their living in the past.

The BMW M6 is the pinnacle of the M Division by numbers and market position. And at $106,995 it better be damned impressive.
