Official photos of the all-new BMW X6 without camouflage have leaked on the web. The crossover features new head- and taillights, redesigned bumpers, and a more aggressive radiator grille. The car has a newly designed C-pillar, typical for the current generation of the BMW X6. As reported by Worldcarfans, the premiere will get its public debut at the Paris Motor Show in October 2014.
However, the vehicle was subject not just to exterior changes. It will feature an extended engine lineup. The all-new X6 will be offered with petrol-powered engines delivering 306 and 450 hp, and diesel-powered engines tuned to produce 258 and 381 hp. The premiere is 150 kg lighter than its predecessor.
All versions of the new-generation X6 will be fitted with an eight-speed automatic gearbox. A hybrid model with a powerplant comprising a turbocharged 3.0-litre engine and an electric motor is expected to arrive later.
The price of the current X6 model fitted with a petrol-powered 306-hp engine starts at 2,999,000 RUB (approx. €63,500) in Russia. The top-of-the-line model is supplied with a diesel-powered 381-hp engine. The price of this trim level starts at 4,420,000 RUB (approx. €93,500). The price of the BMW X6 with the most powerful engine in the lineup, which is a 407-hp petrol-powered motor, starts at 3,990,000 RUB (approx. €84,400).
