An illuminated grille and twin-turbo V8.

The 2020 BMW X6 was first unveiled and has already received mixed reactions, particularly regarding its illuminated grille. This is not the topic we will be discussing here, but has more information about the SUV design. Instead, let’s talk about the future flagship X6 M model.

Our Kolesa.ru friends are back on the wave with a new rendering. This shows a very possible design for the X6 M. It will be a huge success and will be a joy to drive.

Let’s have a look at its design. Although the overall shape and profile of the coupe-SUV are unchanged, larger air intakes along with a more aggressive fascia give it a much more imposing appearance. The performance potential of the range-topping X6 is highlighted by the addition of side skirts and a large diffuser with integrated quad exhaust.

Performance is the focus of BMW’s 4.4-liter twin turbo V8. This engine will be found under the hood the X6M. It will produce 600 horsepower (447 kilowatts in standard spec) and 617 horsepower (460 kW in competition spec) to all four-wheels via the company’s xDrive system.

Everything You Need to Know About the New X6

With its high power output, the SUV will have significant suspension adjustments that should make it capable on tracks. This is despite being small and heavy. You will also feel like you are driving a sports car with bigger brakes and a more direct steering system.

We expect to see the new X6M, possibly together with the X5M, next year, given the recent appearance of the standard X6. The performance duo is likely to debut in 2020’s second half.
