BMW X5 M and X6 M to Debut at New York?

BMW X6 M prototype

The over-discussed BMW X5 M and X6 M may be unveiled as soon as next month but it's currently unclear whether the German manufacturer plans to showcase the two models at the New York Auto Show or during a private media launch to be organized in April. In addition, bmwblog.com today informs that BMW has launched a separate X5 M and X6 M website counting the days till the official launch of the two vehicles.

Unfortunately, details are pretty limited at this point, so beside a few spyshots and prototypes spotted in different regions of Germany, we can't talk too much about the two models.

The only official things we got from BMW were actually a couple of teasers and videos showing the X6 M prototype during a testing session.

Just like we told you back in January, the prototype was equipped with an upgraded V8 M Turbo engine with twin scroll turbo chargers, currently available on the 7 Series. In addition, it came with permanent all-wheel drive and BMW's Dynamic Performance Control, a feature also available on the standard X6 model.

“We enhance the trust in the car, trying to get more performance,” Bernd Limmer from the BMW M GmbH said in a teaser video published in early January. "V8 M Turbo Engine with twin scroll turbo chargers – enhanced, of course. All in this all-wheel-drive X6," he added. "The motor will vary the torque from the right to the left. So the faster wheel will even be faster, instead of slower."
