Chronology
PredecessorBMW N55

The BMW B58 is a turbocharged inline-six engine which began production in 2015.[1] The B58 replaced the N55 and was launched in the F30 340i.[2]

The B58 is part of BMW's new modular engine family - each engine using a displacement of 500 cc (30.5 cu in) per cylinder - following the B38 and B48 engine.[3]

In 2017, the B58 (installed in the M240i) topped Ward's 10 Best Engines list.

The S58 engine, to be released in early 2019, will be the high performance version of the B58.[4][5]

Design

Compared with its BMW N55 predecessor, the B58 features a 20% increase in boost pressure, a closed-deck engine block design, an increase in compression ratio to 11.0:1 and a slight increase in displacement from 2,979 cc (181.8 cu in) to 2,998 cc (182.9 cu in). The intercooler - a water-to-air design - is integrated into the intake plenum, to reduce the volume of air between the turbocharger and the cylinders.[6]

As per the N55, the B58 also features a single twin-scroll turbo, direct fuel injection, variable valve timing (called double Vanos by BMW), variable valve lift (called Valvetronic by BMW).[7][8] The redline remains at 7000 rpm, the bore is 82 mm (3.2 in) and the stroke is 94.6 mm (3.7 in).

The B58 also features an engine-mounted heat encapsulation system to reduce engine wear and emissions during start-up.[9]

As a part of BMW's new modular engine family, the crankcase is a completely new design identically with the B57 diesel version,[10] engineered as both a gasoline and diesel engine in one common part. The closed deck crankcase is equipped with a completely new structure which can be identified by a complex array of ribs on the exhaust and intake side and an additional reinforcement frame on the oil pump side.
