Yes, for the US market - every 2026 BMW with an engine is turbocharged.
The only non-turbo, non-electric BMWs now are the plug-in hybrids in EV mode, but the engine itself is always turbo when it kicks on.
If you’re looking at EU or other markets, the 1.5L 3-cyl in the 118i is also turbo. NA is basically gone from BMW’s lineup.
So if you’re buying new in 2026, assume it’s turbo unless it’s a full EV like i4, i5, iX.
