Review The BMW X6 was once unusual in its form factor, but it's gained companions, from within the brand and without: the BMW X4 takes the coupe-crossover theme down a size, and Mercedes-Benz will soon follow with its GLE Coupe, a sexier take on what's now called the M-Class. Despite the growing popularity of the curvaceous utility concept, the X6 continues to turn heads, and under the skin, it packs formidable capability and comfort. The 2015 BMW X6, which is very closely related to the 2015 BMW X5, has been fully renewed and redesigned, although its exterior has seen such evolutionary change that it might not even appear all that different at first glance. At closer look, it brings a fresh take on the fluid, coupe-like theme with updated front and rear ends. The familiar BMW kidney grille is highlighted by an X-shaped contour and flanked by large twin-circle LED headlights up front, with wide, large air inlets lending an aggressive look, refined just a touch with chrome inserts. Adaptive LED headlights are optional. At the rear, the new design continues to emphasize the width of the X6, with three-dimensional LED light strips, L-shaped rear lights, and, like the front, matte silver underbody accents. Up close, we like everything but the somewhat garish side gills, which BMW says reduce wheel well turbulence. Two new colors are available for 2015 as well: Dark Olive and Flamenco Red Metallic. Inside the 2015 BMW X6, the look is familiar with a 10.2-inch flat-screen display dominating the dashboard view, accented by a choice of brushed aluminum, or a variety of wood trim elements. High-gloss black and pearl gloss chrome surfaces complete the sophisticated, modern theme. As with other recent BMW vehicles, the X6 is available in a range of trim lines, including the xLine and M Sport line. Each adds a themed package of appearance elements, ranging from refined to sporty. Optional interior upgrades include six colors of Dakota leather, with Cognac and Coral Red new for 2015. Mechanically, the X6 also gets some upgrades and new options for the 2015 model year, including its first rear-drive variant, the X6 sDrive35i. Powered by the same 300-horsepower, 300-pound-foot, 3.0-liter turbocharged in-line six-cylinder found in the all-wheel-drive X6 xDrive35i and using the same eight-speed transmission found throughout the X6 range (aside from the monstrous X6 M), its only real difference is the lack of drive to the front wheels. The X6 xDrive50i's 4.4-liter twin-turbocharged V-8 engine gains 50 horsepower, now rated at 450 horsepower. We've found performance to be quite strong—strong enough for most needs—in xDrive35i guise, where the X6 can get to 60 mph in six seconds and performance with the turbo six is strong and smooth. The X6 drives even more like a tall 5-Series than before, and within reason for this nearly 5,000-pound vehicle, it handles precisely and brakes with composure. Multiple drive modes now include an Eco mode that allows more coasting. There's now space for five in the X6, as the rear seat is now a bench (outboard positions are still given the comfort priority, though). The roofline doesn’t take its downward plunge until just aft of rear passengers’ heads, so there’s actually plenty of headroom in back. Legroom and knee space aren’t quite in the realm of a full-size car or crossover, but they’re a bit more ample than in a mid-size sport sedan like the 5-Series. Taking another couple out to dinner or for a short weekend trip should be no problem. Few buyers are ever going to miss the (upper) portion of the X5's cargo area that's carved out by a swoopier roofline and sexier sheetmetal to make the X6. The cargo floor is about where you’d guess it to be, for a taller utility vehicle, with plenty of room for grocery bags to fit upright; and there’s a handy ‘secret’ storage tray underneath. Rear seatbacks do flip forward easily, to a position that’s nearly flat with the cargo floor. Neither safety results nor gas mileage figures have yet been released for the 2015 BMW X6. Although on the technology front, the 2015 BMW X6 offers a head-up display; BMW Night Vision with pedestrian, animal, and object detection, as well as collision warning; and BMW Selective Beam headlights. The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) has already rated the automatic-braking function and potential accident avoidance of its 'Driver Assistance Plus/ACC Stop & Go + Active Driving Assistant' package to be 'superior.' The 2015 X6 comes very well equipped, but with tantalizing wheel, trim, and interior upgrades, as well as those technology extras, it's quite easy to load up an xDrive35i to more than k or an xDrive50i to above the 0k mark.
