What's the horse power on 2013 550i

Sergm3 · 02-22-2013, 02:04 PM

Just got the new 2013 550i. Love the car coming from 2002 e39 m5. This car goes and feels very fast, but I started to read that for 2013 the engine might gotten upgrade in power the window sticker and the manual does have any power ratings. Some people here saying that if the engine has valvetronic it's upgraded from 2012 correct me if wrong. I just want to know what's the ratting on this engine is or BMW just listing old rating on their web site not to piss off m5 owners. Also going in April to spatsburg sc to rip on the the new m5 , m6 ,m3 will get to see how much faster is m5.

I think LCI will get the HP/Tq bump and it will start July production
Your 550i is still at 400hp

about 10% increase in hp/tq for LCI MY2014

550 grand turismo has same engine description as 2013 550i. That's why to me it's very strange. BMW officially announced for 2013 their is bump in horsepower.Now their no change it very miss leading information. Once I get 1200 miles on this car ill dyno to see. Any body have 2012 550 window sticker to see what is engine description is on that engine. Personally I think the engine was changed already it just BMW waiting to release updated version to make it seem like they did the change for 2014
