Maybe they will detune it even more and compensate with a more powerful hybrid setup… or just slap a different badge on it and call it a day.
I think it’s smart they will still offer the 6 cyl diesels in the EU market.
Thanks for the constant flow of interesting news.

I don’t see why they will not go with the current 40D set up which includes the mild hybrid technology. This has 340hp/700 nm. As the new 50i is rumored to get a power increase it doesn’t make sense to reduce output in the 40D version which is one of the best diesel engines build across all brands
