Future BMW models information

I know this thread is mostly geared towards US models, but is there any information about when additional engine options will be available for the F40 1series?

They started with the base 118i and the top-end M135i, which has more than twice the power. That's quite a big gap in their lineup right now.

Early or mid-2020. You'll get 116i, 120i, 118d xDrive, 120d.

US X5 diesel is dead.

I know you don't post non-US models. But do you see any 530e Touring (G31) for EU for the LCI?

Not yet. But it's too early right now, will know for sure in a couple of months.

What is going on with x3? The 2020 ordering guide is out for all models but x3 and x4 are delayed?

Now we are hearing x3m40 is discontinued for UK market

X3m is not at the dealrs and the launch is delayed till june 17? Why. They were made in April

Thank you for the interesting information!

I just noticed that the X5 50i and X7 50i are still available for MY2020 along with the new M50i models. This is surprising since, throughout the rest of the BMW lineup, M Performance models have replaced any similar non M Performance model. I wonder if the G06 X6 will also include a 50i model?

Interesting. I guess there's an exception to every rule. This is the first time BMW is selling M Performance and regular models with the same engine designation. Though in reality these are two different versions of N63 (the G07 ordering guide has a typo) with a huge gap in performance.

I wonder if they just made too many N63Ms and needed to find a way to get rid of them...

And no, X6 won't be in the same situation. Its full intro lineup is xDrive30d (non-US), xDrive30i (non-US), xDrive40d (non-US), sDrive40i, xDrive40i, M50d (non-US), and M50i.

You know engine specs for the models for X6?

Same engines as existing G generation models.

Give them to Alpina and let them make a hilarious X3/X4

I noticed that typo too (typical from BMW USA, sadly), and had similar thoughts about the N63M3 engines. I would not be at all surprised to see the 50i models discontinued by the LCI or sooner.

That 30i model caught me off guard. I didn't realize BMW had four cylinder (non-hybrid) gasoline SUVs above the X4. Perhaps this was the case for the previous generation as well, and I just wasn't aware.

I guess that means there is an X5 30i available or on the way too, yeah (non-US)?

Yes. And in diesel X5 goes as little as 25d.

Anymore news for the iX3? Will it be coming in 2020 as a MY2021?

ynguldyn I know this thread is mainly about BMWs, but do you have any info on when the Mini F56 is going to be redesigned? I've heard rumors that the 4th gen is pushed back until 2023.

EOP 2/2021 is what I see.

I'm waiting for F95:)

Is it reasonable to expect the X3/4 models to get iDrive 7.0 and Live Dash at the same time as the X3/4 M models in April 2020?

Regular X3/X4 will get them in a couple of months.

Can you clarify for me when the EOP for US M2 Competition will be? Will they be produced concurrently with the CS model in 2021?

CS production will have no effect on M2 Comp lifecycle. The EOP is in the top post.

Added: 545e, first bits of info about G22.
