Chronology
PredecessorBMW N57

The BMW B57 is a turbo-diesel straight-six engine, produced by BMW since 2015.[1]

Design

The B57 belongs to a family of modular engines, including the B37 and B47 diesel engines, and B38, B48, and B58 petrol engines.[2] The engines utilise a common displacement of 500 cc (31 cu in) per cylinder.[3] The B57 replaced the previous N57 diesel engine, and was first introduced in the G11 7 Series. The B57 is available in configurations of up to 4 turbochargers, that operate in a double-series layout.[4] In addition to BMW's own brand vehicles, the BMW B57 in-line 6 engine is also used in a diesel variant of the Ineos Grenadier.
