Not content with hanging three turbos off the side of a diesel inline six (as seen in the X5 M50d and X6 M50d), BMW has upped the ante by attaching a fourth turbo to its ubiquitous 3.0 diesel six-cylinder to create what is says is the world’s most powerful six-cylinder diesel - and the BMW 750d will be the first model to get it.
With peak outputs of 294kW and 760Nm, the 750d xDrive’s quad-turbo diesel produces enough power and torque to rival many modern performance V8 engines, yet it consumes just 5.7 l/100km on the European test cycle in standard-wheelbase form.
Thanks to AdBlue injection, a diesel particulate filter and NOX storage catalytic converter, emissions are held to a 149g/km
Three of the four turbochargers are constantly in operation - two low-pressure and one high pressure turbo.
