BMW N63
Hi Neil. Do you have any sources showing that the 7 Series used a N63B40 engine? I think it used a B44, but happy to be proven wrong! Cheers, 1292simon (talk) 01:10, 8 August 2017 (UTC)

This is currently China only. However I suspect this will be used in the states soon as BMW is working on a 4.0 unit for us and for use in Jaguar. The 6-series uses the 402-hp unit and 442-hp unit is in the 750i. Again, this is the Chinese models. Bigger engines are taxed more, hence the smaller size.Neilm82 (talk) 01:29, 8 August 2017 (UTC)

Yes, I realise it is just the Chinese model. But I think the 442hp engine is actually the 4.4 L version. 1292simon (talk) 06:12, 8 August 2017 (UTC)

The Chinese BMW site says its a 4.0, not a 4.4. same with the 6-series. Neilm82 (talk) 06:17, 8 August 2017 (UTC)

The engine size is 3982.... A 4.0. the states along with Jaguar will eventually seeing a variation of it here. Neilm82 (talk) 06:22, 8 August 2017 (UTC)

I added a pic somewhere on here. A screenshot from BMW China. Neilm82 (talk) 06:58, 8 August 2017 (UTC)
