BMW X6 (2014) Updates

Thursday, 05 June 2014 07:47 AM The 2015 BMW X6 introduced the first rear-wheel drive model in the lineup, the X6 sDrive35i, powered by a 300 horsepower TwinPower Turbo inline-six engine. This addition joined the all-wheel drive models, the X6 xDrive35i and the X6 xDrive50i, which featured a 445 horsepower TwinPower Turbo 4.4-liter V8. All models came with BMW’s 8-speed Steptronic sport automatic transmission.

Thursday, 05 June 2014 12:51 PM BMW announced that the new 2015 X6 would be produced exclusively at their production facility in Spartanburg, South Carolina, and would arrive in US showrooms in late 2014. The pricing started at $60,550 for the X6 sDrive35i, $62,850 for the X6 xDrive35i, and $73,850 for the X6 xDrive50i. I think this was a smart move to keep production costs in check while maintaining quality.

Tuesday, 20 May 2014 12:20 AM The 2015 BMW X6 featured an updated and more extroverted design, including slim headlight units and a dynamically stretched silhouette. The interior included standard features like the BMW Navigation System with touchpad Controller and the Bang & Olufsen surround-sound system. I believe the design updates really enhanced the vehicles appeal.

Tuesday, 15 April 2014 07:27 AM BMW highlighted the efficiency gains in the new X6 xDrive50i, thanks to the addition of Valvetronic, lower curb weight, and other EfficientDynamics measures. This resulted in a 0-60 mph time of just 4.8 seconds, 0.4 seconds quicker than its predecessor.

Tuesday, 25 March 2014 08:54 AM The 2015 BMW X6 was set to make its public debut, showcasing its new design elements and enhanced performance features. The vehicle was part of the second generation of the Sports Activity Coupe concept that BMW pioneered. I think this generation marked a significant leap in both design and technology.

Monday, 10 February 2014 06:34 AM BMW emphasized the market success of the X6, with global sales of 250,000 units to date. This validated the unique concept of combining the performance of a Sports Activity Vehicle with the emotional design of a traditional coupe.

Monday, 20 January 2014 07:57 PM The new X6 models were equipped with various comfort and convenience features, including seat heating for the driver and front passenger, and optional heated rear seats as part of the Cold Weather Package.

Sunday, 15 December 2013 11:20 AM BMW announced plans to expand the color palette for the standard Dakota leather trim in the 2015 X6, including new variants such as Cognac and Coral Red. This added more personalization options for buyers.

Monday, 25 November 2013 03:42 AM The 2015 BMW X6 was expected to feature advanced safety and driver assistance systems, including a rearview camera, parking sensors, and the BMW Navigation System. These features were designed to enhance both safety and driving comfort.

Thursday, 10 October 2013 07:26 AM BMW confirmed that the production of the 2015 X6 would continue at their Spartanburg, South Carolina facility, which was also the global competence center for several other BMW models.
