The All-New BMW X6 Sports Activity Coupe

When BMW unveiled its all-new X6 Sports Activity Coupe in January 2008 at the Detroit Auto Show, it once again introduced a ground-breaking idea to the world and created a new segment. The X6 redefines the very notion of a coupe - with five doors, four sculpted seats, a higher ride and loads of cargo space - it combines coupe agility with SAV versatility, in one jaw dropping look.

As the world's first Sports Activity Coupe, the BMW X6 is available in two engine variants: the xDrive50i (4.4 V8 engine, 400 hp, 450lb.-ft torque) and the xDrive35i (3.0 inline six-cylinder engine, 300 hp, 300lb.-ft torque), both with Twin Turbo and direct injection. The BMW X6 offers unique features and performance ability in a combination unmatched by any other vehicle. The new BMW X6's design combines the sporting elegance of a large BMW Coupe with the powerful presence of a BMW X model.

The BMW X6 comes as standard with BMW's intelligent xDrive all-wheel-drive technology with electronic control for variable distribution of drive power between the front and rear axles, consistently adjusted to driving conditions at all times and in all situations.

The X6 Sports Activity Coupe, which will also come in an Active Hybrid beginning in 2009, will feature:

• Dynamic Performance Control, a first for any automobile, provides a new level of driving dynamics and stability through management of the drivetrain and chassis, distributing drive forces and power as necessary for optimal vehicle control.
• A new envisioning of the wheel well, measuring more than 21 inches with a Y-spoke design created specifically for this vehicle.
