I’m surprised they don’t go back to the M20 engine approach - low compression, low revs.
82-88 528e 30-35 MPG, and ran on regular octane.

Yeah. Now they all want to drink expensive premium gas. But I still love the way a BMW drives. No Prius for me.

What about power and emissions? High compression is how they wring horsepower out of relatively smaller displacement engines.
