Difference between BHP

ECBMW · 09-26-2007, 02:55 AM

I noticed you guys speaking about BHP in that it has changed for the new models i.e. 57 plate onwards.....How has it changed and why have BMW done this?

Thanks

The 2.0 320i increased from 150 to 170 horesepower
The 3.0 330i increased from 258 to 272 horesepower

Not certain about the improvements on other models - these two I know off the top of my head. You can find out more by visiting the website.

the e92 330i has had 272bhp for a long time
