The BMW B48 is a turbocharged inline-four petrol engine that replaced the N20 and has been in production since 2014. It was first used in the F56 Mini Hatch and has appeared in BMW models since 2015. It is part of a modular family of three-cylinder B38 and B37, four-cylinder B48 and B47 and six-cylinder B58 and B57 engines, each using 500 cc per cylinder. Compared with the N20 it is more undersquare and uses closed-deck construction, while keeping an aluminium block and head, a twin-scroll turbocharger, direct injection, Valvetronic and double-VANOS. A 2018 technical update, the B48TU, brought a one-part timing chain, separate cooling circuits for head and crankcase and forged connecting rods and crankshaft. The B46 is a sulev version sold where emissions rules are strict.
