Spartanburg, SC – While opinions on its styling may be divided, there's no denying that the X6 has been a sales success for BMW, with more than 260,000 sold since its 2008 debut. It's a hard vehicle to pigeonhole, straddling the line between sports coupe and utility vehicle. But obviously the X6's incongruous looks strike a chord with those qu

“Behold! BMW’s answer to the question nobody asked!” said the blowhard, know-it-all as he climbed out of the X6 for the first time, seven years ago at the Canadian International Auto Show. Over the past seven years, that smart ass was shown that, on average, for a thousand Canadians every year, the X6 is the answer to “What high-fashion luxury mach

When I got the email letting me know my last-minute assignment for the week would be to go pick up, drive, shoot and review the 2015 BMW X6 xDrive50i , I had to slap myself in the face for a second. Why, you ask? Well, even if you didn’t ask, I’ll tell you. I’ve never driven an X6. I’ve driven all sorts of BMWs, almost all of them, I think - excep

BMW has pulled the wraps off the third generation of its X6 crossover, whose available V8-powered M50i model is nearly as fast as the outgoing X6 M.

There’s a line with luxury cars where they’re no longer just about luxury and style, but where they are designed to make a statement. The BMW X6 is a perfect example of this. Logically, the X6 isn’t as practical as the X5, but is just as high-tech and engaging to drive – not that high-end SUV-coupe buyers are looking for any of that. They want a ca

BMW Canada is asking the owners of more than 3,300 X5 and X6 crossovers sold as 2011 models to bring their vehicles to a dealership so technicians can replace faulty front drive shafts. Transport Canada's recall notice says the drive shaft that delivers power to the front wheels may have defective seals around the universal joints (or U-jo

After driving a few hundred kilometres in a 2020 BMW X6 M50i on a recent ski trip, it became abundantly clear that the M50i versions of BMW’s mid-sized SUVs, with their turbocharged V8s, are all the performance SUV any reasonable person should ever need. After all, they’re spacious, comfortable and capable, and, with more than 520 horsepower, they’

Austin, TX - When I first spied the gen-one BMW X6 SAC (Sport Activity Coupe) at the 2007 Geneva Auto Show, I thought “Gawd, what hath BMW wrought?” Turns out they wrought something pretty good.

Meanwhile, we adults get to look forward to the retail industry bombarding us with Christmas-themed advertising and decorations starting November 1. At least all the leftov

Sure your blacked-out ride looks pretty cool. You got the black trim from the factory, maybe the black paint or black vinyl, and even black wheels. But your car isn't this black. Ths BMW X6 is finished in the (second) blackest black paint in the world. To show off the new X6, BMW is presenting one of them clad in a material called Vantablack. It

When you have two cars that are this similar and this nichey, there’s really no sense in covering every detail that we have already previewed in our BMW X6M First Drive . So we thought we would key in on what few differences there are between BMW’s more conventional X5M performance SUV (or SAV in BMW parlance, short for Sports Activity Vehicle) an

Daimler takes the four-door SUV coupe fight to the BMW X6 It may have taken a few years for Mercedes-Benz to catch up, but the GLE is here to give the BMW X6 a run for its money.
