Performance
The new BMW X6 knows what speed, performance and agility really mean thanks its impressive list of engine options. Base xDrive40i models have a 3.0-liter turbocharged inline-six engine producing 335 horsepower and 331 pound-feet of torque. This engine pairs with an eight-speed automatic transmission and accelerates to 60 mph in 5.2 seconds.
The 4.4-liter twin-turbo V8 engine, available in the M50i model, propels the X6 to 60 mph in as little as 5.3 seconds, courtesy of its 523 horsepower and 553 pound-feet of torque. Although it shares a similar 4.4-liter engine and eight-speed automatic transmission, the BMW X6 M's engine is specially tuned to put out a whopping 617 horsepower and can sprint to 60 mph in 3.7 seconds.
The new BMW X6 will ensure you turn heads when driving in the city due to available features like the aggressive-sounding M Sport exhaust and stylish 22-inch wheels. The new model also offers an adaptive M suspension and integral active steering to provide superior handling and control. Although towing may not be a priority for every X6 driver, the new model can handle 7,200 pounds, allowing you to attach a trailer or camper for your next vacation.
Safety
To ensure you drive around Macon confidently, the new BMW X6 has impressive driver assistance features. Using sensors around the vehicle, the new model monitors your blind spot and alerts you by vibrating the steering wheel upon sensing possible collisions.
With the high-tech lane departure warning system in the new X6, the luxury SUV can help you avoid unintentionally drifting into another lane. When driving in traffic at speeds lower than 40 mph, the new X6 can utilize a traffic jam assist system to keep you centered in your lane. Other safety features include automatic high beams, adaptive cruise control and a parking assistance system.

Standard BMW X6 models have a 12.3-inch high-resolution touchscreen infotainment system with traditional control knobs and voice control. It utilizes the brand's iDrive infotainment interface to enhance its graphics and increase its responsiveness. The infotainment system supports Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ compatibility, allowing you to connect with your phone applications when driving. Due to the wireless charging system, USB ports and a Wi-Fi hotspot, your family will remain connected no matter where you go. Buyers can choose between a Harman Kardon stereo and a more powerful Bowers & Wilkins premium audio system.
Interior & Exterior
In typical BMW fashion, the new X6 has a classy interior, upscale materials and high-tech creature comforts. The well-placed 12.3-inch digital display gives you a great view of the vehicle's speed, range and navigation at a glance. A head-up display is also available to project turn-by-turn directions and more on the windscreen to help you keep your eyes on the road.
