High Precision Injection: Piezo injectors positioned close to the spark
plugs in the 135i ensure lean-burn operation under partial loads. To
provide optimum combustion, the fuel is injected at high pressure into
the cylinders, up to 200 times per fraction of a second. This means that
only part of the combustion chamber is filled with an ignitable fuel/air
mixture, so fuel is used extremely efficiently.
Portrait of an engineering masterpiece: The 135i TwinPower Turbo
engine produces 300 hp at 5800 rpm, and quickly develops 300 lb-ft
of torque at just 1200 rpm, which continues, without fading, to the
5000 rpm range. With such a broad range of powerful torque, you
can enjoy smooth, robust acceleration in any gear, at any speed.
BMW engines deliver power and performance with unsurpassed smooth-
ness and effi ciency. Small wonder they have been winning accolades
and awards from the automotive press for years.
The 135i for 2011 draws upon BMW’s new TwinPower Turbo – the first
engine in the world to combine turbocharging, High Precision Injection
and Valvetronic technology. This twin-scroll wonder develops 300 lb-ft
of torque at just 1200 rpm and continues all the way to 5000 rpm. It’s a
force that throws you back in your seat right from the start and doesn’t
let up. With 300 horses on tap, the 135i can sprint from 0 to 60 mph in
5.0 seconds.

Thanks to BMW’s award-winning engine expertise, turbo
lag is virtually a thing of the past. By using High Precision Injection,
every ounce of fuel is maximized for greater efficiency, with reduced

emissions.
The naturally aspirated, 230-hp inline six in the 128i is capable of produc-
ing 200 lb-ft of torque at 2750 rpm, for power that pours on early and
strong and continues throughout the powerband. Hit the accelerator and
you’re sailing past 60 mph in 6.1 seconds.

BMW’s advanced Valvetronic
technology lets the engine “breathe” better, for greater power, higher
torque, quicker engine response, a smoother idle and enhanced fuel
efficiency. The lightweight composite magnesium/aluminum engine
block adds to the 128i’s spirited acceleration and nimble handling.
Both models offer, as standard, a silky-shifting 6-speed manual. The
135i can also be ordered with a 7-speed Double Clutch Transmission
(DCT) for lightning-quick shifts; in the 128i, STEPTRONIC automatic with
Adaptive Transmission Control is available. When either model is equip-
ped with the optional transmission – and, in the 128i, either the Sport
Package or M Sport Package – steering wheel-mounted paddle shifters
are automatically added. But whichever engine and transmission combi-
nation you choose, innovative BMW engineering makes it possible to
enjoy outstanding power and performance with reduced emissions and
fewer trips to the pump.
