Probably not. Although the author mentions the possibility of an "si" model (or whatever) with the N55 engine, I think that is just speculation. For now, I would say the smart money is on the X1 essentially sharing the engine lineup with the F20 1 series, and as we know from SCOTT, that will be an all four cylinder lineup.

I still think BMW has more up their sleeve for the N20 later. I expect a ~280hp version will follow in a couple years. If Hyundai/Kia can do it, so can BMW.
