Thumbs up Where is the US 2023 X3 M40i engine made?

I just ordered the X3 M40i, and was wondering if the straight 6 mild-hybrid engine is made here in the US or in Germany. That information should be on your car's window sticker when you purchased it. And are the standard 19" wheels staggered?

It's not a V6, it's a straight 6 😉👍

My 19: winter wheels are square - OEM 245/50/19 105 V

And staggered 21” Summer Tyres Bridgestone Alenza 001
245/40/21 Y 100 front
275/35/21 Y 103 rear BMW * marked.

I believe 20” wheels are staggered fitment as well

Mine was on my window sticker, made in Austria . I’m in the US, not sure if it differs in other countries.

It is made at BMW Group Plant Steyr in Steyr, Austria which is coincidentally around 100 miles from Magna Steyr in Graz, Austria where the Toyota Supra is built which also uses the B58.
