BMW refreshes X6

BMW gives its X6 Sports Activity Coupe model a refresh this spring with the model benefitting from style enhancements and improved equipment levels.

At the front, the X6 now features fog lights set in a matt finish surround, newly designed bars and new grille bars flush with the bottom of the headlamp units.

As an alternative to the standard bi-xenon light, the new BMW X6 also becomes the first vehicle in its segment to be fitted optionally with adaptive LED headlamps. Their bright white light ensures optimum visibility.

BMW X6 2012

The new X6 is offered with an extensive range of petrol and diesel engines. Engines with BMW’s TwinPower Turbo Technology in particular offer impressive pulling power and exemplary low fuel consumption figures. The BMW X6 xDrive50i  for example delivers 300 kW/407 bhp, while in the BMW X6 xDrive35i an in-line 6-cylinder petrol engine with 225 kW/306 bhp ensures supreme athletic performance. The in-line 6-cylinder diesel engines of the models BMW X6 xDrive40d and BMW X6 xDrive30d mobilise 225 kW/306 bhp and 180 kW/245 bhp respectively. Both offer not only impressively sporty power delivery but also emission figures based on the EU test cycle of 7.5 litres per 100 kilometres for the BMW X6 xDrive40d and 7.4 litres for the BMW X6 xDrive30d.

The new X6 is available with a choice of two non-metallic colours and eight metallic colours including Marrakech Brown metallic, Orion Silver metallic and Midnight Blue metallic. Inside, the standard leather trim Nevada is now also available in the colour Vermilion Red. Exclusive nappa leather option with extended features now includes a choice between the colours Black and Ebony White. The new BMW X6 is offered as standard as a four-seater model. A three-seater rear bench is optionally available. The luggage compartment volume of the Sports Activity Coupé is 570 litres and can be extended to up to 1,450 litres by folding down the rear backrests.

As an additional option, the M Sport Edition is offered for the new BMW X6 in Germany. This attractive equipment package includes 20-inch M light alloy wheels in double spoke design and bi-colour finish with mixed tyres, adaptive LED headlamps, BMW Individual high-gloss Shadow Line, black surrounds for the fog lights and M door sill cover strips. The striking accentuations for the exterior are supplemented with a sporty interior ambience. Features here include the sports seats with electrical adjustment and memory function, M-specific Alcantara/Nappa leather combination in black with M-style welt and contrast stitching, M leather steering wheel with shift paddles, M driver footrest, stainless steel pedals, interior strips in Aluminium Flywheel black and the BMW Individual roof liner in anthracite.
