New BMW 130i cars wallpapers and specification with Cars Review

Taking BMW's lightweight magnesium-alloy six-cylinder 258hp petrol engine as a basis, BMW

engineers have wrung every last drop of power from the revolutionary powerplant, making

the BMW 130i six-cylinder the most powerful engine in its class and the most powerful

six-cylinder engine under a BMW bonnet, bar the M3. It is also the only car in its

segment to offer a front-engine, rear-wheel-drive layout - the optimum set-up for on-road

dynamics.

Taking BMW's renowned attention-to-detail to the extreme, the 1 Series engineering team

have exploited the 1 Series' exemplary air flow and cooling to extract even more

performance out of the car at full throttle. As a result, the 130i now delivers 265hp,

seven horsepower more than the 330i, 530i and 630i. Similarly, torque has also been

uprated to 315Nm from 300Nm.

The improvements in engine output enable the car to deliver a class-leading zero to 62mph

time of 6.1 seconds while top speed remains limited to 155mph. Consumption is still

frugal with the 130i recording 30.7mpg on the combined cycle, while the EU4 compliant

power train produces just 221g/km.
