[quote=Anonymous]I had 3-year leases on a pair of BMWs (2014 328ix and 2017 X3) and always found the 4-cylinder to have plenty of power for any type of normal driving. To me, they almost had too much in the sense that it was very easy to suddenly be doing 85-90 without feeling like it because the engine could handle it at relatively low RPM levels. I can't imagine that a bike rack and a couple of bikes would have any impact there. Now, I have an X7 with the 6-cylinder turbo, and it still has the brief power lag that all turbos have when you mash the gas, even as the engine itself can produce more power. It's a pretty short period, though, especially compared to our old Saab, which needed a few seconds for the turbo to get going. Turbos are the way of the modern world for fuel efficiency, so you'll just have to get a feel for which engine's performance you like the best. Unless you go electric, which it sounds like you aren't.[/quote]
