Can we assume the '12 ML550 will be fitted with the new 4.7l DI twin turbo setup?

I believe the ML550 will get a NA version of the 5.5L V8 to be used in TT form in the ML63.

No guys, the new ML550 will have the same 4.7L turbo motor from the 2012 E,S,CL cars.

The turbo 5.5L V8 is all new along with the 4.7 turbo motor, neither are based on the outgoing 5.5L V8 from the 2007-2011 S550 and E550.
