For the "G generation", things will look roughly like this (in the US):
1/2 UKL
Non-M: 28i B48
M Performance: M35i B48
M: Nope!
2 CLAR
Non-M: 30i B48
M Performance: M40i B58
M: S58
3/4
Non-M: 30i B48
M Performance: M40i B58
M: S58
5/6
Non-M: 30i B48, 40i B58
M Performance: M50i N63
M: S63
7/8
Non-M: 40i B58, 50i N63
M-Performance: M60i N74
M: S63
So, if we use your term "M models" to apply to both M proper and M Performance vehicles, then you are correct insofar as, any model below a 5 that is not an "M model" will have a four cylinder engine (B48).
