Overview & Reviews

The BMW X6 is an all-new model for 2008. Despite having a name numerically higher than the X5, the X6 isn't any bigger. Instead, this four-person, performance-themed crossover features coupelike styling, a sophisticated all-wheel-drive system and a potent range of engines.

• Capable handing, comfortable and roomy front seats, sophisticated new traction/stability technology, optional burly twin-turbo V8.

• Hefty curb weight considering its sporting mission, somewhat cramped rear seating, limited cargo space, inflated price.

  More fun, better looking than the X5 - 2008 BMW X6
  By DCAreaBMWowner - May 21 - 3:00 pm

  Very happy with the X6 after almost 2 months. I love the handling with the sport package much improved over my 2007 X5 4.4i. No reliability problems yet. Definitely a head turner and I enjoy the convenience of an SUV without the boxy SUV reputation. The turbo six performs as well as the V-8 in the 4.8i X5, but gets significantly better gas mileage. I didnt want to wait a few months for availability of the turbo V-8, but at current gas prices, the turbo six is an adequate choice. You just have to push it a little harder.

  A fun vehicle to drive - 2008 BMW X6

  I just trade in the 2006 530Xi wagon, love this vehicle, fun to drive, have the SUV high command feeling, but with good road performance. Now I hate my 07 Escalade.

  FUN! - 2008 BMW X6

  I have an X5 and quite happy with it. I took a test drive of X6-35i and was very impressed with its handling of curves, uphill pickup and the interior. It is a pricy toy! Question is less room than X5 but more fun.
