BMW prefers to call the X6 M a “sports activity coupe,” like its regular-grade X6 sibling. Most of us tend to see both as four-door fastbacks—but M is the one that’s eager to reveal a persuasive dose of high-riding ruggedness. Despite its relatively husky size and weight, the X6 M has its 21-inch tires planted firmly in the high-performance realm. Few competitive vehicles can claim to be as practical as an X6 M in that rarified domain.

2017 BMW X6 M Overview
What's New for 2017
Little has changed for the 2017 season. Standard navigation has been updated to iDrive 5.0, with touchscreen functionality. The optional Executive Package now includes wireless charging and a wi-fi hotspot with enhanced USB and Bluetooth. Individual Extended Merino leather upholstery is newly optional.
Choosing Your BMW X6 M
Buyers considering the M version of the X6 (or any BMW M model) take their performance seriously. To that end, the all-wheel drive X6 M packs a twin-turbo 4.4-liter V8 that delivers 567 horsepower and 553 pound-feet of torque. All that grunt is channeled through a specially calibrated eight-speed automatic transmission with launch control.
Acceleration from zero to 60 mph happens in 4 seconds flat—from a vehicle that weighs close to 5,200 pounds. As expected, fuel economy is less impressive, EPA-estimated at a mere 14 mpg in city driving and 19 mpg on the highway (16 mpg combined). Automatic stop/start operation can shut the engine off at stoplights.
Dynamic Damper Control includes a self-leveling rear-axle air suspension. The X6 M stability control system features a Dynamic mode for even greater ability to breeze along winding roads and tackle razor-sharp corners. You also get staggered-width 21-inch wheels, summer performance tires, and M-spec brakes. The exterior receives quad tailpipes and oversized front air intakes, while the interior gets 18-way power heated front sport seats and M-specific instrumentation.
The X6 M can accommodate up to five passengers and 26.6 cubic feet of cargo. With the rear seat folded, cargo volume blossoms to 59.7 cubic feet—roughly the same as a small wagon. The extended leather-upholstered interior boasts four-zone automatic climate control, driver and passenger memory, a simulated suede headliner, a 16-speaker Harman Kardon surround-sound system, power liftgate, and navigation with voice controls and real-time traffic data. A standard rearview camera and parking sensors ease the challenge of backing into a tight spot.
For buyers who savor undiluted luxury, the Executive Package offers power soft-closing doors, a heated steering wheel, ventilated front seats, heated rear seats, rear sunshades, and full LED headlights with automatic high-beam control. Driver Assistance Plus, the only other option package, brings several active-safety features: blind-spot monitoring, lane departure warning, frontal collision warning, and city collision mitigation; plus speed-limit information and surround-view cameras.
Individual options for the X6 M include 20-inch wheels, an automated parking system, a 16-speaker Bang & Olufsen sound system, Night Vision with pedestrian detection, Apple CarPlay compatibility, and a rear entertainment system with dual screens.
CarsDirect TipBuyers on a budget might have to accept a regular X6, since the X6 M starts at an eye-popping $102,200. The available 20-inch wheels might seem like a step backward, but we recommend them for improved ride quality unless you’re planning to spend time driving your X6 M at a track. The optional Bang & Olufsen system sounds as great as expected, but intrudes significantly into cargo space when the rear seat is up.
