Ok, let me try this again. Here are interesting things I see from the press release:

- The 535d is upgraded to 313hp like the new 640d, yet retains the name 535d instead of changing to 540d.

- It says "The petrol versions comprise the two new four-cylinder models...", yet fails to provide any details. Later, however, they mention the 520i and 528i, so presumably those are the two four cylinder models. Thus, the current 523i badge is being retired for now.

- The N53B30-powered 530i remains in the lineup. I find this very interesting. Even more interesting is that it gets a power bump.
