2012 BMW 528i / 528i xDrive Sedan - Car News - Car and Driver

Just in time for the Fourth of July holiday here in the land of freedom, BMW is announcing a 5-series with four cylinders. 0-liter will produce 240 hp at 5000 rpm and 260 lb-ft of torque from 1250 rpm. That matches the horsepower figure for the old six and surpasses it in the torque department with 30 additional lb-ft, peaking 1350 rpm earlier. BMW estimates a 0-to-60-mph run of 6. 2 seconds, or 0. 4 second better than it quoted for the 2011 car. We netted a 6. 4-second run with the inline-six, and expect the turbo four to drop that time to around 6. Source: www.caranddriver.com
