BMW X6 News

  • 2011 BMW X6

    In July, we brought you news that car thieves (in Great Britain, anyway) had gone high-tech, stealing new cars via the use of NFC key reprogramming devices. Instead of relying on old-fashioned methods to steal certain new cars, today’s thieves just need access to the car’s diagnostic port, a blank NFC key and a key reprogrammer. BMW models built between 2007 and September of 2011 are the cars of choice for these thieves, and the Bavarian automaker has just announced a software fix that will eliminate the chance of NFC key theft on X5 and X6 models. Per Auto Express, BMW dealers in...

    2013 BMW X6 Preview: New M Performance Package, Styles

    First reviled as a monstrosity mashing coupe and SUV together in unholy union, then slowly admitted to be a somewhat useful, somewhat sporty--if still ugly--vehicle, and finally growing on some of us like a four-wheeled, fast-backed fungus of fun, the BMW X6 is still a rare creature in the...

    2013 BMW X6 Facelift Spy Shots

    The BMW X6 made waves when it was first launched back in 2008. Here was a big SUV but with almost no practicability, thanks mostly to its limited four-seat layout but also due to its smallish trunk. This was remedied somewhat with the introduction of a fifth seat option early last year, but now the...

    BMW X6 Gets Optional Fifth Seat

    One of the biggest drawbacks of the BMW X6--once you’ve learned to live with its awkward styling and steeply reclined roof--is its limited four-seater capacity. Remember, this is a vehicle that nearly matches some seven-seaters in size yet BMW chose to go with a 2+2 seating configuration...

  • 2010 BMW X6 M

    The somewhat ungainly proportions of BMW's not-a-coupe, not-an-SUV X6 have been the subject of intense debate. It's not ugly in the traditional sense, but it's not especially attractive either. ALSA Automotive Engineering, based in the UAE city of Abu Dhabi, has nevertheless decided to take on the challenge of tuning the X6, focusing its efforts on the high-performance X6 M version. The tuning specialist is currently working on a performance upgrade which, in combination with delimiting the Vmax and adding a sports exhaust, will bring a further perceptible increase in the power of the BMW X6...
