I saw one tuner believe the B48B20B engine is good up to 300bhp. So 300bhp + 108bhp from the electric motor is 400+ |

You don't just add them up. BMW puts the electric motor in the transmission in place of the torque converter. That uses up some of the HP. Other features eat up more.
I have seen some companies simply add them together. They are wrong and kudos to BMW for being honest about the HP (actually as most of you know, BMW sandbags its HP so it actually going the opposite direction). Now if only they would up the HP for me. |

With the amount of torque increase how will the drivetrain hold up? Does anyone know which of the ZF 8HP gearboxes is in the 330e? Is it possible to use PPT to set it back to original/tune it after the initial tuning is done? Last edited by ChrizBB; 01-23-2020 at 10:31 AM.. |

Hi Norway here aswell. I have one 2020 530E and the wife has a 2020 330E- i have talked to BSR and they do not have a PTT for these bmws. I will tune mine now. But i will most likley use BootMod3. Then you can swap between maps easy. Best Regards Jarle |

From Greencarcongress: The plug-in hybrid system pools the abilities of a 2.0-liter four-cylinder gasoline engine with BMW TwinPower Turbo technology and output of 135 kW/184 hp with an electric motor which generates peak output of 83 kW/113 hp. Together, the two drive sources produce maximum system torque of 420 N·m (310 lb-ft). A new feature—included as standard in the new BMW 330e Sedan—is XtraBoost. The driver can quickly bring XtraBoost into play by activating SPORT mode with the Driving Experience Control switch. A vigorous stamp on the accelerator unleashes an additional 30 kW/40 hp on top of the combined 185 kW/252 hp already generated by the combination of electric motor and combustion engine; XtraBoost keeps it on tap for up to 10 seconds. The result is the signature powertrain character of the BMW 3 Series Sedan, comprising (for the first time in a hybrid model from BMW) incredibly sporty yet also precise accelerator response, and a specific shift program for the eight-speed Steptronic transmission including engine-braking downshifts. |

Yes, so in hybrid mode which is the default mode of the car it outputs 252bhp (188bhp from ice and the rest from battery) the car never uses the 113bhp from the battery unless in xtraboost or it would drain the electric battery quite quickly, hence the 10 second limit.
The ICE only ever outputs a max of 188bhp, doesn't go past that with xtraboost, the electric engine is giving the extra power. |

I have a F30 330e tuned to 350HP. Great car !
I ordered a 2020 G21 330e, but I'm afraid that 2020 models will have the B48B20A engine (350HP with a tune) and not the B48B20B(420HP with a tune). Someone told me that BMW switched to B48B20A for 2020 MY 330e. Could someone with a 2020 (production) 330e check is engine code ? Thanks

Jarle, did you do the tune? I'm also in Norway and I'm interested in knowing what you ended up doing and what kind of results you've got, if you don't mind sharing.

Yes...BMW does sandbag its HP numbers so the actual number is likely higher than advertised (BMWs often dyno at the wheel at about the same HP that they show at the engine). But one can't simply add the numbers together. |
