MORE JET. LESS SET.
The BMW X6.
Powerful and athletic. With the presence of an X model and the sportiness of a coupé, the BMW X6 transcends all limits. Its BMW TwinPower Turbo engines are a potent mixture of dynamics and efficiency, and BMW xDrive helps to bring this power to the street. Outstanding equipment such as the Design Pure Extravagance package as well as top-quality materials characterise a vehicle that is sure to take centre stage – and, at the same time, is astonishingly functional.
A REAL ATTENTION-GRABBER.
Broad. Muscular. Dynamic. The BMW X6 combines the solid stance of an X model with the sportiness of a coupé. The commanding front contains striking air inlets that provide an indication of the power lurking behind them. The coupé-like silhouette and all-encompassing interior contours ensure that vehicle occupants feel comfortable at all times. Light and dark interior surfaces create intense contrasts and the premium-quality materials and standard-feature leather trims send out a clear message: Perfection is of the essence.
The design of the BMW X6.
Time for you to take control: The BMW X6 is built to move. With energetic, forward-thrusting contours, the BMW X6 exudes irrepressible dynamics and purposefulness. Its broad shoulders and solid stance reflect its X genes, while the coupé-like roof line underpins the unmistakable character of the BMW X6. A combination that makes this Sports Activity Coupé so unique.
EXTERIOR DESIGN.
Broad. Muscular. Dynamic. The BMW X6 combines the solid stance of an X model with the sportiness of a coupé. The commanding front contains striking air inlets that provide an indication of the power lurking behind them. The large, sporty-shaped double kidney grille underlines this athletic presence, with an added air of supremacy provided by the double headlights and the fog lights, which are positioned wide on the vehicle’s exterior. When viewed from the side, the sporty, coupé-like silhouette comes to prominence, optically framed by the premium chrome surrounds of the windows. From this perspective, the active design language of the BMW X6 is recognisable in an instant: The first part of the unmistakable crease line extends from the powerfully shaped front wheel housings to the rear door handles. The second part begins at the rear wheel housing and tapers off elegantly at the rear of the vehicle. The dynamic nature of the BMW X6 is even more prominent at the impressively wide rear, where horizontal lines characterise the solid stance. The BMW X6 is ready to leave all limits behind.
INTERIOR DESIGN.
Clear structures. Exclusive sportiness. High-quality craftsmanship. The interior of the BMW X6 is carefully thought through, right down to the last detail. In typical BMW style, the cockpit is fully orientated towards the driver, who enjoys an excellent overview thanks to the elevated seating position. The sporty shape of the seats guarantees optimum stability, even on the most dynamic journeys.
The coupé-like silhouette and all-encompassing interior contours ensure that vehicle occupants feel comfortable at all times. Light and dark interior surfaces create intense contrasts and the premium-quality materials and standard-feature leather trims send out a clear message: Perfection is of the essence.
The driving dynamics of the BMW X6.
The striking design of the BMW X6 is truly unmistakable. However, in the end, one factor above all else is absolutely crucial: What does moving this powerhouse actually feel like? The chassis of the BMW X6 sets new standards. BMW xDrive guarantees outstanding traction – whatever the weather, whatever the road surface. This is accompanied by excellent directional stability and an agility that instantly enthralls. Include adaptive suspension packages – for even more driving pleasure.
BMW xDrive.
The intelligent BMW xDrive all-wheel drive system adapts perfectly to even the most challenging road surface conditions, ensuring optimal traction at all times. xDrive and Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) ensure that the BMW remains safe and stable. Controlled via the DSC sensor system, xDrive flexibly and quickly distributes drive power between the axles in order to prevent oversteer or understeer on bends, thereby ensuring outstanding directional stability. Moreover, it guarantees a rapid, safe acceleration even on slippery or steep stretches. In critical road conditions, the DSC doesn't need to intervene as much. Thus, BMW xDrive combines all the advantages of an all-wheel drive system – traction, directional stability and driving safety – with classic BMW agility.
CHASSIS.
Majestic: Thanks to its wide track and five-arm rear axle, the BMW X6 impresses with excellent road-holding. At the same time, it is extremely comfortable – with no compromises in dynamics.
ADAPTIVE M SUSPENSION.
Adapt the chassis of your BMW X6 to suit your own personal taste. A total of four different versions are available for selection.
BMW EfficientDynamics in the BMW X6.
The BMW X6 knows how to harness its resources. The proof: irresistible dynamics coupled with low fuel consumption and emissions. Unadulterated driving pleasure is guaranteed, thanks to innovative BMW EfficientDynamics technologies such as an intelligent lightweight construction and ingenious aerodynamics.
INTELLIGENT LIGHTWEIGHT CONSTRUCTION.
Thanks to lightweight construction, every gram shed from the vehicle's weight increases driving pleasure. The less weight there is to move, the less energy is needed to move it. BMW applied this insight to vehicle construction back in the 1930s and has been continually refining it ever since. Our engineers constantly ask themselves: where does it make sense to reduce weight? And where would it be impractical? The result: intelligent lightweight construction. This encompasses the use of ultra-lightweight materials like magnesium in the dashboard mount or aluminium in the suspension and bonnet. An undercarriage cover made from textile materials has a positive acoustic effect and also reduces weight. This means that the car as a whole is significantly lighter than its predecessors.
AERODYNAMICS.
The entire design of the BMW X6 is testament to the BMW EfficientDynamics philosophy. The optimised, aerodynamic front apron and undercarriage feature innovative improvements that reduce air resistance and fuel consumption.
The integrated Air Curtain channels air through two vertical air inlets and along the front wheel arches. The accelerated air flow creates a kind of “curtain” on the outer side of the wheels. At the same time, the Air Breather channels the air flow at the front wheels. These innovative technologies reduce turbulence and air resistance, which in turn reduces fuel consumption.
While driving, the air vent control uses a sensor to continuously monitor whether the engine requires cooling and opens or closes the vents accordingly. The optimised aerodynamics and shortened engine warm-up period reduces fuel consumption.
8-SPEED STEPTRONIC SPORT TRANSMISSION.
The 8-speed Steptronic transmission sets new benchmarks in comfort and dynamic performance and efficiency and is a key element of BMW EfficientDynamics.
The unusually fine increments between gears facilitate optimum power delivery at all speeds. This reduces fuel consumption significantly, while allowing the driver to enjoy increased sportiness and dynamic performance.
At high speeds in particular, the additional gears reduce engine speed, in turn decreasing both fuel consumption and engine noise. The converter clutch also helps – even if the car is changed to the manual mode. In combination with the fast engine speed transitions and the precise transmission tuning, it provides a very high level of shift comfort and reduces noise considerably.
Thanks to the 8-speed Steptronic transmission from BMW EfficientDynamics, it is now possible to actively boost performance in vehicles with the new Predictive Drive Train via the Driving Experience Control. In the "Sport" mode, the transmission management uses data from the navigation system to deliver a level of responsiveness that is even more dynamic and spontaneous based on route characteristics. As suggested by its name, the "Comfort" mode offers a comfort-oriented shift programme with fewer shifts.
ECO PRO MODE.
The ECO PRO Mode helps drivers reduce their fuel consumption by up to 20 percent, depending on their driving style – according to an internal BMW fuel consumption study. The coasting function, the Route-Ahead Assistant and ECO PRO Route make it possible to save a further five percent.
INTELLIGENT ENERGY MANAGEMENT.
The intelligent energy management in the BMW X6 is provided by a number of standard-feature BMW EfficientDynamics technologies, including the Auto Start-Stop function, Electric Power Steering and Brake Energy Regeneration. The interplay between these technologies ensures sustainable mobility and maximum efficiency.
