BMW M43 engine
This page is a reverse index of the BimmerNews factory matrix: it shows the generations, bodies, models and markets in which the M43 family appears.

Source rows containing this family
Each row keeps the original model, body, market and source boundaries. Where a source row names several engine families, its grouped model list is not treated as a one-to-one model-to-engine mapping.
