BMW recently announced that respect: In cooperation with PSA Peugeot Citroen engine project or will end in 2016, after the use of self-developed modular engine. At present, jointly developed by BMW and PSA Peugeot Citroen engines are mainly used BMW 1 Series and MINI models, so the future BMW models will be more fully stop using 1.6T engine.
In recent years, Volkswagen MQB platform for representatives from car manufacturers are turning as previously modular platform, while BMW will also be modular plan as the next major development goals. BMW previously announced that it will produce a respect 1.5L three-cylinder turbocharged engine, the future will mainly carry on "UKL" platform, Peugeot Turbo and a small car platform, this platform for future precursor MINI and BMW 1 Series is commonly used. The combination of BMW recently announced the end of the engine on the 2016 collaboration news, BMW and PSA Peugeot Citroen's cooperation is gradually coming to an end, so far 1.4 / 1.6T engine BMW and PSA co-production is about 1 million units, most of are equipped to the MINI and a department.
BMW and PSA Peugeot Citroen had jointly developed the production of four-cylinder engine named Prince, called the BMW internal model N14, displacement areas were 1.4L, 1.6L and 1.6T versions. The engine used in 2007 MINI models equipped with MINI was replaced before the Trutec engine, in addition to this engine was also used in the Peugeot 207 models. Mazda Turbo The next MINI and BMW 1 Series will be equipped with 1.5T turbocharged engine developed to replace the now jointly developed with PSA Group 1.6T turbocharged engine.
BMW's MINI brand models currently used in 1.6L and 1.6T engine was jointly developed with PSA engine, while the previous two years, there were aspects of a product called MINI MINI ONE models, matching the 1.4L engine, but models have been discontinued in the two years since then has not been introduced models equipped with 1.4L engine. Thus we can analyze, Ford Turbo MINI future trends will be fully dilute cooperation with PSA 1.4,1.6 engine in favor of BMW "modular" 1.5 engine.
Self-developed 1.5-liter BMW TwinPower turbocharged three-cylinder engine, the use of the now popular variable load control, direct fuel injection and variable valve control and other advanced technology to its vehicle fuel economy, emissions performance has been greatly improved . In addition, from the top of the table comparison, we can see that the BMW three-cylinder engine developed by 1.5T, the maximum power of 149 kW and peak torque of 268 Nm from the cash value has been completely beyond the 1.6T engine performance.
With the continuous progress of the competition and rapidly changing market situation, a lot of promising technologies originally had to face a similar demise, which is the law of the market's performance, and now the BMW 1 Series and MINI 1.6T currently being used will also face The same situation, which can not help but feel pity. But we should expect BMW developed its own 1.5T engine, because this engine will be used in the future BMW models will be the first ever from the precursor model platform's first front-drive platform.
