1.4 T got the award, but I expected some for 2.5 T and 3.0 T too...

How come they don't build a 3.0 with a turbo+compressor???
If this little 1.4 TSI is so good, they should make a bigger brother for people who need more power but like a decent fuel economy. The 3.0T (compressor) doesn't look to good in my opinion, no big deal in the fuel consumption area and the power is nothing spectacular either.

As an Audi fan, I would have liked to see the new 3.0 TFSI there too, but is quite customary for BMW to scoop the majority of these awards I guess.
