Nee 4 cyl diesel engines and a new model M520D

According to BMW Press material sent to the swedish press, there is a new engine in the F10 and F11 with slightly less consumption etc.
But, there is a surprise, a new model called M520D Xdrive:


Maybe a 2.0D with artificial sound of a M5 in its speakers? Makes more sense than in M3 to me.

I knew the 20d would get an upgrade to 190hp since that was the case with the new X3 F25 LCI with the 20d engine.

But I wonder what's up with the M520d xDrive.

You know if these changes are from 07/2014?

I think so, since they released that info together with the info about the new 4cyl diesel.

But who knows. It seems there won't be a touring version at this moment, strange.

No M520d, it was a typo.

Yes, never trust a car magazine, especially a Swedish one
But it was a good idea.

The typo was actually from BMW in the press release.

Yes, but a magazine should always double check before going public.
