The 2.0-liter BMW TwinPower Turbo four-cylinder engine achieves an abundance of power from a small package through a twin-scroll turbocharger, direct injection, plus Valvetronic and double-VANOS variable valve control; resulting in 255 max horsepower and 295 lb.-ft. peak torque within the band of 1550-4400 rpm. All this power allows you to go around switchbacks, backroads, and slight curves regardless of mountain steepness. At the same time, on the straight-away the handling gives a kind of agreeable rhythm to the driving experience.
