B Redesigned with a more fuel-efficient engine, the new model is expected by the automotive company to appeal to a broader market segment.
C With a more fuel-efficient engine redesigned, the automotive company expects the new model to appeal to a broader market segment.
D The automotive company, having redesigned the new model with a more fuel-efficient engine, expects it to appeal to a broader market segment.

✓ Correct Answer: Option B

The original sentence contains a dangling modifier. 'Having been redesigned' incorrectly modifies 'the automotive company.' Option B correctly places the modifier 'Redesigned with a more fuel-efficient engine' next to 'the new model,' which is what was actually redesigned.
