BMW Group presented the second generation of the Sports Activity Coupé (SAC). It is the successor to the model, whose global sales have already reached almost 250,000 units

As the manufacturer states, in the energetic design of the new BMW X6, the sporty power and versatility of the BMW X model harmonize with the elegance typical of BMW coupes. In the spacious interior, model-specific design elements organically combine with a sporty and luxurious atmosphere.

Thanks to attractive trim and equipment packages, the exclusive style of the new BMW X6 can be further accentuated. The Design Pure Extravagance trim line sets striking accents both in the exterior and interior. The M Sport package further emphasizes the car's extraordinary dynamic qualities.

The standard equipment of the new BMW X6 is also exclusive, significantly expanded compared to the previous generation model. Bi-xenon headlights, 19-inch alloy wheels, automatic tailgate drive, and 8-speed Steptronic sport transmission including paddle shifters are part of the base equipment, as well as leather interior trim, dual-zone climate control, auto-dimming interior mirror, and the Driving Assistant system included in the BMW ConnectedDrive technology package.

For greater interior functionality, the rear three-seat bench backrest is split in a 40:20:40 ratio, allowing the luggage compartment volume to increase from 580 to 1525 liters (+75 liters compared to the previous generation model).

By the start of sales of the new BMW X6 in December 2014, the engine lineup will include the latest generation petrol V8 with 330 kW/450 hp for the BMW X6 xDrive50i, an inline six-cylinder diesel engine with 190 kW/258 hp for the BMW X6 xDrive30d, and another inline six-cylinder with 280 kW/381 hp for the BMW X6 M50d. BMW TwinPower Turbo technology, the standard 8-speed Steptronic sport transmission, the BMW EfficientDynamics technology package, optimized weight, and improved aerodynamics have significantly enhanced the dynamic characteristics of the new BMW X6 while reducing fuel consumption by an average of 22 percent. Average fuel consumption: 6.0 – 9.7 l/100 km; average CO2 emissions: 157 – 225 g/km)
