The BMW N62 is an 8-cylinder gasoline engine in a V configuration from the Bavarian vehicle manufacturer BMW and the successor to the BMW M62 . The engine block consists of Alusil , a hypereutectic aluminum alloy (AlSi17Cu4Mg), and was manufactured in Munich from 2001 to 2010 . Each cylinder has 4 valves and an indirect sequential fuel injection Sequential Fuel Injection (SFI) . The valve control takes place via the BMW Valvetronic and the double camshaft adjustment VANOS .

Furthermore, compared to the previous BMW M62 engine , the N62 is now also fuel-regulated in full load operation via the lambda sensors. This lowers fuel consumption in full load operation and improves exhaust gas values such as the content of carbon monoxide (CO), hydrocarbons (HC), nitrogen oxides (NOx) and, above all, benzene .

When International Engine of the Year Award from the N62 in 2002 in the categories won Best New Engine , Above 4-liter and International Engine of the Year .

The successor was the BMW N63 .
