The 228i is a turbocharged four-cylinder engine produced by BMW. It was first introduced in the 2014 BMW 2 Series. The engine is available in both rear-wheel drive and all-wheel drive configurations.
Is the 228i twin turbo?
There is no definitive answer as to whether or not the 228i twin turbo is a true twin turbocharged engine. A twin turbocharger is technically two turbochargers working in tandem, however, the 228i uses a single turbocharger.
In theory, this could result in increased power and torque as compared to a twin turbo engine, but there is no empirical evidence to support this claim. Instead, it seems likely that the 228i twin turbo is simply equipped with a more powerful turbocharger.
