Of the 10 winners, 8 featured direct fuel injection, 6 were forced induction and 1 was electric.

Here's the list of winners:

3.0-liter TFSI Supercharged DOHC V-6 (Audi S5)
3.0-liter Turbodiesel DOHC V-6 (Ram 1500 EcoDiesel)

2.0-liter Turbodiesel DOHC I-4 (Chevrolet Cruze Diesel)

3.5-liter SOHC V-6 (Honda Accord)
2.7-liter DOHC H-6 boxer (Porsche Cayman)
1.8-liter Turbocharged DOHC I-4 (Volkswagen Jetta)


Watch Ward's Auto video review of the BMW 535d [VIDEO].
Is that engine really in the 535d in the US? The single turbo version of the N57 is in the 530d here in the UK. The 535d has a twin turbo version with 313bhp I think off the top of my head.

Great engine. Faster than the 35i and more fuel efficient as well. It's only missing the petrol noise however for a diesel they still sound pretty good.

Yes.

North American 535d = global 530d, similarly North American 328d = global 320d. Marketing pressure for people who don't know the actual specs of the vehicle they are buying.
