When it comes to building engines BMW is not a company to underestimate, and their four wins in the most recent International Engine of the Year Awards is a testament to their abilities. The BMW i8’s drive unit was awarded two wins in its class along with being the overall winner. Wins by the BMW M3 engine and BMW M4 engine helped to establish their positions of power.
Thanks to its three-cylinder, BMW TwinPower Turbo petrol engine, the BMW i8 unit won class winner and the whole drive unit was awarded as the best “new engine”, largely thanks to its electric motor and petrol engine. The BMW M3 and BMW M4 M TwinPower six-cylinder in-line petrol engines also took home first place in the 2.5 to 3.0-litre displacement category.
This year’s success in a variety of categories only bolsters the prosperous potential of the Efficient Dynamics technology package, which has consistently improved both fuel efficiency and driving pleasure.
The International Engine of the Year Awards started in 1999 and since then BMW has taken home 66 class and overall wins for their models engines. The winners are chosen by a large panel of 65 motor journalists from 31 different countries who meticulously collaborate to determine which engines are superior.
