BMW M diesels
BMW has revealed official details of a range of M-badged diesel models set to go on sale later this year as part of the newly created 'M-Performance' brand.
The M550d will be available as both an estate and saloon and produces 376bhp, delivered to the rear wheels. That's still 176bhp short of the M5's twin-turbo 4.4-litre V8 but 74bhp higher than the most powerful diesel in the 5 Series line-up.
While it may be significantly down on the M5's power output, it's not far off in terms of performance. BMW claims M550d will accelerate from 0-62mph in 4.7 seconds, which is just 0.3 seconds slower than the M5.
But, the gains in fuel economy are genuinely impressive. Where the M5 only manages 28.5mpg and 232g/km of CO2 the diesel model manages 44.8mpg and 165g/km. Those lowered CO2 emissions alone will save £625 on the price of road tax for the first year.
Both X5 and X6 M50d models are four-wheel drive and boast similarly impressive figures all-round. Both are capable of almost 40mpg and 0-62mph times in the low 5-second area.
Visually, the M-Performance diesels aren't as aggressive as their full-blown M stablemates but subtle bodykits and alloy wheels mark the changes. The interior gets M-badgded door-sills and a special steering wheel and seats.
The changes to the chassis aren't as widespread as they would be on M-badged models either, but engineers have fitted the diesels with a few upgraded components and tweaked chassis settings.
Prices haven't yet been released for the M550d but the X5 and X6 M50d will cost £60,325 and £62,260 respectively.
