It was the bold move no-one thought was going to become a trend-setter more then a decade ago when BMW launched the first generation of the X6. The SUV-Coupe (called by the Bavarians Sport-Activity-Coupe) was followed a decade later by more than one competitor. But the real star of the SUV-coupe segment, was and remained the X6. In 2019, BMW decided to come with a new generation. Now it is even bolder and meaner. As a plus, the Bavarians added some bling-bling equipping the car with 22” rims and lights in the front-grille.
Inside, there is room for 5. The first generation had 4 individual seats as standard, those from the back being divided by a large center console.
Under the hood, BMW offers gasoline and diesel engines, all turbocharged. The “slowest” version has 265 hp and can do a 0-100 kph (62 mph) in under 7 seconds, while the top of the range X6 M Competition can reach the first 100 kph (62 mph) in a mere 3.8 seconds due to its 625 hp and massive 750 Nm (553 lb-ft) of torque.
Since the new generation was launched under new rules of connectivity, the evolution of the infotainment system is massive. From the previous iDrive with a rotary knob to BMW Live Cockpit Professional is a big leap. Also, there is a personal AI assistant that can receive a custom name so the driver won't have to say “Hey, BMW!” each time he wants a command. Two over 12” screens are available for the instrument cluster and the main screen. Of course, it supports Android Auto and Apple CarPlay.
