All of BMW’s new diesel M vehicles will be powered by a tri-turbocharged inline six-cylinder diesel engine that makes 376-hp and 545 lb-ft of torque. Of course, because these are diesels, the power is available very low in the rpm range, making for great acceleration. All of the diesel Ms will come with an eight-speed automatic transmission and all-wheel drive.

2013 BMW X6 M50d

BMW says that the M550d sedan will hit 0-60 mph in just 4.6 seconds, which makes it a very fast car just 4 tenths of a second slower than the M5 sedan to 60. The M550d will go 0-60 in 4.9 seconds, the X6 M50d (above) in 5.3 seconds and the X5 M50d in 5.4 seconds.

Unfortunately, BMW has no plans to bring the diesel M vehicles to the U.S. right now. According to Autoblog, the major hurdle in selling the high-performance oil burners is that BMW would need to significantly change the emissions equipment in order for the vehicle to be legal in all 50 states. Blame California.
