Dynamic Performance Control in the BMW X6.

For the first time in a BMW, Dynamic Performance Control gives the BMW X6 unique new cornering qualities. Seamless drive distribution to the left- and right-hand rear wheels improves track stability, regardless of whether the driver is accelerating or not. That means you can enter bends more precisely and cross-accelerate faster with optimised grip when you accelerate out. Together with the all-wheel xDrive system, Dynamic Performance Control delivers enhanced agility and dynamics on all surfaces.

Superior dynamics on every surface.

xDrive - the intelligent all-wheel drive
system on the BMW X6.

In the BMW X6, the all-wheel xDrive system provides better traction, higher stability and more safety. If the sensors detect that the car is about to drift off course - for example, in wintry conditions - the system reacts in milliseconds. By adjusting the amount of power that goes to the front and rear wheels, xDrive effectively nips over- or understeering in the bud. And when xDrive and Dynamic Performance Control join forces, the result is a whole new dimension in driving dynamics and traction.

Active Steering (optional) lets you steer the Sports Activity Coupé even more dynamically and confidently in any situation. At low speeds or when parking, the steering is light. At medium speed, it becomes sporty and direct. At high speeds, it is pleasantly indirect.

To the power of eight. The eight-speed automatic transmission Steptronic in the BMW X6.

The rev counter is the only place you'll notice: with the new eight-speed automatic transmission the smaller increments from one gear to the next don't just increase ride and shift comfort in the BMW X6, they also enable faster gearshifts and more profitable use of the optimum rev range. This reduces fuel consumption and lowers CO2 emissions. The system is supported by the newly developed converter clutch – even if you use the electronic gearshift lever to shift manually.

Higher torque, lower consumption. The six-cylinder diesel engines in the BMW X6 xDrive 30d and xDrive 40d.

Both diesel engines in the BMW X6 xDrive30d and the xDrive40d use state-of-the-art common rail diesel technology for higher performance and singularly low consumption. The turbo diesel engine in the BMW X6 xDrive30d delivers 180 kW (245 hp) and 540 Nm of torque, yet consumes just 7.4 l/100 km (EU composite figure). Even more efficient is the BMW X6 xDrive40d with its BMW TwinPower Turbo technology: here, two turbochargers work in sequence to deliver impressive power curves and high rpm. With 225 kW (306 hp) and 600 Nm of torque under the bonnet, the car sprints from 0 to 100 km/h in just 6.5 seconds – yet consumes a mere 7.5 l/100 km (EU composite figure).

The BMW TwinPower Turbo straight six-cylinder petrol engine in the BMW X6 xDrive35i.

The 3-litre drive train with BMW TwinPower Turbo technology combines a TwinScroll turbocharger with Valvetronic, double-Vanos and High Precision Injection. The result is a high degree of revving power complemented by high torque and low consumption. With 400 Nm available from just 1,200 rpm upwards and a power output of 225 kW (306 hp), this engine is one of the most powerful in its class. And with a fuel consumption of just 10.1 l/100 km (EU composite figure), it's also extremely efficient.
