The new BMW X5 M and new BMW X6 M (fuel consumption combined for both models: 11.1 l/100 km (25.5 mpg imp); CO2 emissions combined for both models: 258 g/km) see BMW M GmbH setting the pace once again in the high-performance Sports Activity Vehicle (SAV) and Sports Activity Coupe (SAC) segment. When the previous generation of the two cars arrived in 2009, it was the first time the high-performance character distilled by BMW M GmbH had been transplanted into an all-wheel-drive BMW X model. The new BMW X5 M and new BMW X6 M combine the characteristic features of the successful BMW X family - exclusivity, robustness, agility and everyday usability - with the commitment to high performance that defines an M car. Innovative engine technology
The new M TwinPower Turbo engine for the BMW X5 M and BMW X6 M is the most powerful unit ever developed by BMW for an all-wheel-drive vehicle.

Additional exterior design modifications, moreover, elevate the M models even further than before from the standard BMW X5 and BMW X6. New BMW X5 M and BMW X6 M customers also have the choice between various options exclusive to the M models, such as 21-inch M light-alloy wheels, Merino full-leather trim and M multifunction seats. At BMW M GmbH, high performance is about more than engine output and top speeds alone. This sense of balance is a defining feature of all the cars produced by BMW M GmbH and is, needless to say, also present and correct in the new BMW X5 M and new BMW X6 M.
The function-led design of the new BMW X5 M and new BMW X6 M is immediately clear with athletic, dynamic looks betraying their high-performance credentials before they so much as turn a wheel. Intelligent all-wheel drive
BMW xDrive intelligent all-wheel drive and Dynamic Performance Control play a key role in the outstanding dynamics of the new BMW X5 M and new BMW X6 M. In the interests of greater agility, xDrive brings a rear-biased basic set-up to the BMW X5 M and BMW X6 M.
The driving dynamics system Dynamic Performance Control oversees the continuous distribution of drive between the rear wheels - both under load and on the overrun - regardless of engine output. Among the other highlights of the overall concept behind the new BMW X5 M and new BMW X6 M is Dynamic Stability Control (DSC). Dynamic Stability Control allows the driver to choose from three modes: DSC on, MDM (M Dynamic Mode), DSC off. The turbocharged V8 engine fitted in the BMW X5 M and BMW X6 M impresses most profoundly with its lightning-fast responsiveness. The cooling systems for the new BMW X5 M and BMW X6 M are similarly track-ready, as highlighted the first time you set eyes on the cars by the large air intakes in the front end. In order to meet these part-contradictory, part complementary demands, the BMW M GmbH engineers have developed two sets of mixed tires for the new BMW X5 M and new BMW X6 M. High-performance brakes borrowed from motor sport
The remarkable dynamic potential of the BMW X5 M and BMW X6 M is backed up by the standard high-performance compound brakes with large six-piston fixed calipers at the front and single-piston floating calipers at the rear. This also feeds into improvements in the acceleration, responsiveness and handling of the BMW X5 M and BMW X6 M. The outstanding driving dynamics of the new BMW X5 M and new BMW X6 M also come to the fore through their M design signatures. The flowing lines of the BMW X6 M, meanwhile, accentuate the prominent dynamics and sporting athleticism of the BMW Sports Activity Coupe.
The new BMW X5 M and new BMW X6 M have been designed for use on the road. Both of these elite sports machines combine the raised seating position of an all-wheel-drive BMW X model with the outstanding overall concept balance of a BMW M car. The shared front-end design of the BMW X5 M and BMW X6 M is likewise a clear departure from that of the respective standard models and follows the classic "form follows function" maxim. Both new M models borrow their headlights from the BMW X6, complete with washer system. By contrast, the BMW X6 M displays the unmistakable, dynamic lines of a BMW Sports Activity Coupe through its gently curved glasshouse, sloping roofline and pronounced wedge shape. A rear spoiler painted in body color on the BMW X6 M reduces rear-axle lift.
For example, the BMW X5 M and BMW X6 M come with a newly developed, ergonomically optimized M leather steering wheel with gearshift paddles, while the M gearshift lever has an equally distinctive design. The sporting ambience on board the new BMW X5 M and BMW X6 M is accentuated particularly strongly by the exclusive, electrically operated M sports seats for the driver and front passenger - in fine-grain Merino leather with contrast stitching and embossed M logo in the backrests - and by the leather-covered BMW Individual instrument panel. Door sill strips with model lettering, aluminum interior trim strips and the anthracite-colored BMW Individual roof liner lend the interior an additional touch of exclusivity. Both models are fitted as standard with polished 20-inch BMW M light-alloy wheels in Orbit Grey and with mixed tires. Likewise polished, forged 21-inch BMW M light-alloy wheels in Orbit Grey and with mixed tires are available as an option.
Exclusivity and impressive functionality are also defining features of the interior of the new BMW X5 M and new BMW X6 M. Adaptive LED Headlights with BMW Selective Beam, an anti-dazzle high-beam function and the active cornering function are also part of the standard equipment for the BMW X5 M and BMW X6 M. These items are in addition to the driver assistance systems familiar from the regular BMW X5 and BMW X6 and the mobility services from BMW Connected Drive. BMW M GmbH has developed the BMW M Laptimer app for smartphones so customers can access extensive analysis of their personal driving style on the track. More sport, more comfort
The high-performance character of the new BMW X5 M and new BMW X6 M is further emphasized by the standard Launch Control feature adapted from its application in racing cars.
