I6 : Inline-6 engine is the akin to V6 : V6 engine.... u don't call a V6 6V engine...

Apart from inline and V, we also have Flat-4, Flat-6, Flat-12 engines.

Well understood that...but it should not be 16 piston as stated in the first place...
inline 6 engine is a straight line 6 cylinder...
V6 engine is 6 cylinder with V block 3 each piston in each block that is why call it V6 engine...
same to V8 engine with a V block engine with 4 piston in each block...
my 2cents...:burnout:

BMW has boxer engines for the bikes. No flat engines for cars in the last 30 years....

dear newbies and bro's..after doin some studies sinz i'm buying the 3 series ...something to share about...


BMW M52 engine
Manufacturer: BMW
Production: 1994–2001
Predecessor: BMW M50
Successor: BMW M54
Class: Straight-6
Similar: Mercedes-Benz M104
The BMW M52 is an I6 piston engine. Displacement ranges from 2000cc to 3200cc. It is a DOHC 24-valve engine with VANOS Variable Valve Timing. It replaced the BMW M50 engine in 1994 and was replaced in 2001 with the BMW M54 engine. The engine used Nikasil lined aluminium cylinders rather than a cast iron cylinder block in markets with low-sulfur fuel, resulting in lighter engines in those markets. The M52 includes VANOS variable valve
The 2.2 L (2171 cc/132 in³) M54B22 produced 125 kW (168 hp) at 6100 rpm and 210 N·m (155 ft·lbf) at 3500 rpm.A Technical Update or M52TU version in 1999 added Double VANOS and other modifications.The M52 was on the Ward's 10 Best Engines list for 1995 through 1998.

This is the statement that I read which I highlighted in blue...

It's an 'I6' not '16'...

"The BMW M52 is an I6 piston engine." What it meant was that the BMW M52 is an inline 6 internal combustion piston engine (not rotary or any other forms of engine)
