The BMW N54 was a twin-turbocharged straight-six petrol engine produced from 2006 to 2016, and it was the first mass-produced turbocharged petrol engine BMW built and the first since the limited-production M106 ended in 1986. It debuted at the 2006 Geneva Motor Show and was launched in the 335i of the E90, E91, E92 and E93 3 Series. It has an aluminium block, a displacement of 2,979 cc, direct injection and double-VANOS but no Valvetronic, and two small low-pressure turbochargers at 8 psi of boost that BMW marketed as TwinPower Turbo. It produced 34 kW more than the N52 it replaced as the top six-cylinder, won six straight International Engine of the Year awards and three Wards 10 Best Engines awards, and the N55 began to phase it out from 2009. The E89 Z4 was the last model it powered.
