Interesting.
"....the main changes to the engine line-up look set to centre on the existing Z4 sDrive35i. It is set to receive the latest version of BMW’s 3.0-litre turbo six, boasting an added 14bhp to take it to 316bhp."

Like the article states, this N55 is already used in the new M135i. But also in the new 640i (320hp / 450nm).

sDrive35i. It is set to receive the latest version of BMW’s 3.0-litre turbo six, boasting an added 14bhp to take it to 316bhp.

I guess the 35i will get the n55 currently used in the 335i (306hp / 400nm).
