Is the M240i mild hybrid?

vladipachirisu · 09-16-2021, 07:16 AM

With the new M440i being a mild hybrid and the M340i getting the mild hybrid starting with MY21, shouldn't the M240i also be a mild hybrid?

Because I haven't seen anything that would suggest that it would be and it doesn't make sense that they would put the older engine in the new car.

AFAIK M240i is totally ICE, no mild-hibridizing at all.

They would have been said all around and there's no word about it in specs in the media press stuff

Pretty sure 220d is only variant with 48V mild hybrid tech.
