The engine is one of the things I'm least concerned about (apart from perhaps the power/tq curves below 3000rpm - which perhaps explain some of the X3M "lag" comments)
Would love to see similar technical docs for transmission (my #1 priority!), electrical power steering, suspension/chassis, AWD!

I don't think the full G8x technical document is out yet (someone please correct me here as I would love to get my hands on that) but the closest thing we have now is the F9x docs.

I don't think they offer the SUVs in manual, but the ZF M8HP76 will be the exact same transmission for the auto. I think the M Xdrive also carries over. |
I would expect bmw to publicize specific tech improvement whether to the motor or otherwise in concert with the first press drive event... that way they can pair the technical side with real experiential feedback on the benefits
