BMW has been known for making top-whack diesels in Europe and the UK for decades, but so far none of them have made it stateside, where people have the same regard for diesel as they do for your average dog turd. As more and more people learn about recycling and eco friendliness, however, diesels are slowly gaining popularity. Thus Bimmer has decided to send its oil-burning 530d to our shores and see if it can’t move some units.
The 2011 BMW 530d will join its little brother 335d which has been an option in the States since ‘08. It will be powered by BMW’s well-known and well-loved 3.0 liter diesel that sees action in Europe’s 330d and an upcoming US-market diesel X3.
