2008 BMW X6 spy shots

With the new X6 BMW is prepared to conquer new terrain - a Crossover mixing with SUV, sports car and Coupe. Spy photographs caught the X6 prototypes on testin in Bavaria.

X6 shows more powerful dimensions comparing to the X5. With almost the same hight as the X5, the X6 stands clearly more broadly on the road. Four sumptuously dimensioned exhaust pipes dismiss the life expressions of the burn aggregates.

The X6 will be powered by the strongest engines from X3 and X5. Diesel engines will be same as in the X3: 3,0-Liter-Twin-Turbo with 286 HP. The petrol engines will be: a twin-turbo 3.0L delivering 300hp and later 4.8L V8 with 367hp. The X6 will make the 0 to 60 mph sprint in 6.8 seconds. A M-version of the X6 is not planned however, since all wheel and SUV models apply with BMW as incompatible with M-philosophy.
