There are many iterations of the B58. I had the first gen in my 2016 340i XDrive. It had 320hp. Then with the m performance tune it was 335hp. The 2020 M340i was the high output B58 at 382hp. Then in 2021 the M340i also received the 48v mild hybrid system which is an 11hp boost though they still rate the engine at 382hp. Fuel economy did improve in the real world and there’s basically no turbo lag and the engine stop/start is very smooth. The X3 M40i received the same 382hp mild hybrid setup in 2022. I have a 2021 M340i XDrive and a 2023 X3 M40i XDrive.

I still prefer the steering and interior of the G70 3.3 Twin Turbo, for about $15k less. The screens remind me of my work from home setup in this car, with two clunky rectangle monitors, and the gauge displays are too cartoonish (and not as easy to read when driving hard), seemingly just to look different. I’ll be in the minority here I’m sure, but give me classic functionality over unusual instrument readout design. Analog all day for me! 4.5sec to 60 is plenty fast for me, considering I commute to a corporate job, not a drag strip. 😊

My previous 2015 RCF had 159,000 miles until I sold it. I also paid a $600 60K mile warranty on rims and tire warranty. New tire for no question asked if nail got in it and curb rash on rims.
