BMW 330i uses a 2.0t inline four-cylinder engine with the code name b48. An engine is a machine that can convert other forms of energy into mechanical energy, including internal combustion engines (reciprocating piston engines), external combustion engines (Stirling engines, steam engines), jet engines, and electric motors. The BMW 330i is a mid-size car with a maximum engine torque of 250 Nm, equipped with an 8-speed automatic transmission. The length, width, and height of the BMW 330i are: 4719mm, 1827mm, 1459mm, with a wheelbase of 2851mm and a top speed of 222 kilometers per hour.
I've been driving the 330i for a while now, and it's equipped with a 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-four engine, codenamed B48. This engine delivers strong power output, reaching around 258 horsepower, making acceleration and overtaking smooth and effortless. I particularly love its performance on the highway—quick throttle response and a stable ride. The fuel efficiency is also quite good, with an average city fuel consumption of about 7.5 liters per 100 kilometers, and even lower on long trips. Additionally, the engine noise is well-controlled, keeping the cabin quiet when the windows are closed. BMW has put thought into the design, integrating advanced technologies like twin-scroll turbocharging to minimize turbo lag. However, regular maintenance is crucial, especially oil changes and carbon buildup cleaning, to avoid minor issues. Overall, this engine is reliable and well-suited for those who enjoy sporty driving while still needing a practical daily driver.
