2024 BMW X6 Review, Price and Specs

Despite the louder sound and faster acceleration provided by the 523-hp X6 M60i, we don’t think it’s worth the staggering price difference. Instead, we’ll stick with the six-cylinder X6 40i. We’ll spring for the M Sport package which includes an attractive body kit and exterior trim, an upgraded exhaust system, a sportified suspension and a unique steering wheel.

Engine, Transmission and Performance

The X6 40i is powered by a 375-hp turbocharged 3.0-liter inline-six that pairs with a 48-volt hybrid system and eight-speed automatic transmission and all-wheel drive. The M60i has the same transmission and all-wheel drive, but its twin-turbo 4.4-liter V-8 is significantly more powerful. Its 523 horsepower and 553 pound-feet of torque helped propel it to 60 mph in just 3.8 seconds on our test track. What’s even more shocking is that the X6 M has up to 617 horsepower and is even faster. Still, the standard six-cylinder powertrain is quite zippy and velvety smooth. Both the X6 40i and M60i get standard adaptive dampers and wheel sizes that range from 20 to 22 inches. our test V-8-Powered X6 Its impressive cornering grip and stopping power were revealed. Although its suspension is firmer than the setup found on The six-cylinder X6 we tested, it was never punishing. We appreciated its adjustable steering heft and hushed interior at cruising speeds.

towing and payload capacity

The X6 has an impressive towing capacity in a segment where towing capacity is often a low priority. When optioned with the available Towing Package, the maximum towing capacity for the X6 is 7200 pounds.

Fuel Economy and Real-World MPG

The EPA hasn’t published fuel economy estimates for the X6 now that its powertrain has been updated. We’ll update this space when that information becomes available, as well as when we drive the refreshed X6 on our 75-mph highway fuel-economy rout, which is part of this.

Interior, Comfort & Cargo

Unsurprisingly, the X6’s interior looks and feels like most other BMW products. This means upscale materials and soft-touch surfaces abound, and two large 12.3-inch digital displays dominate the dashboard. While the instrument panel looks sleek, the gauges are a confusing mess. Thankfully, the optional heads-up display is more straightforward. The rest of the switchgear is also well placed. BMW’s gesture controls—which enable you to control certain functions like audio volume by waving your hand in front of the infotainment screen—are included but unnecessary. Lots of standard conveniences are also offered, including 16-way power-adjustable front seats, customizable ambient lighting, heated front cushions, and passive entry. While the rear seat is comfortable for two adults, its legroom and headroom fall short by about two and three inches, respectively, compared to the boxier X5. Similarly, the X6 has less cargo volume behind the rear seats. In our testing, it only held back nine carry-on suitcases; The X5 handled 11.

Infotainment & Connectivity

The standard 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment system includes Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. It is operated through various functions like traditional buttons, voice commands, a rotary controller on the center console and even hand gestures. The company’s iDrive interface has crisp graphics and immediate responses, but some of the layered menus can be distracting. BMW offers a free over-the-air upgrade idrive 8.5 for the X6 sometime during the summer of 2023. BMW also offers upgrades like built-in navigation, upgraded USB ports, wireless charging and Wi-Fi hotspot. The X6 can be upgraded with a premium Harman/Kardon stereo (standard on the M60i) or an even more premium Bowers & Wilkins unit.
