Everywhere else in the world the engine is called the 30d. In this case they are of course not trying to hide the fact that while the 35d engine in E70 X5 35d was a twin-turbo engine, the 35d in the F15 X5 is the single turbo version - ie the 30d.

Agreed, a very odd policy that basically assume the US customer will be 'duped' by this when really they are very well informed and think exactly the same!
