BMW has finally released the first pictures of its new 'Sports Activity Coupé', the X6, which will get its official unveiling in Detroit in January. The four-seater X6 is BMW's third SUV slotting in between the Honda CR-V rivalling X3 and the full-size, seven-seat X5. BMW hopes the American-made X6 will carve out a niche for itself with its, erm, unique coupé styling and sportier handling than the disappointingly truck-like X5 on which it's based. It goes on sale in May powered by four engines: a new 4.4-litre twin-turbo V8 (407hp, 600 Nm; 0-100km/h in 5.4 seconds; 250km/h top speed; 12.5L/100km on the combines cycle; 299g/km of CO2); a twin-turbo 3.0-litre straight six (306hp, 400Nm; 0-100km/h in 6.7 seconds, 240km/h, 10.9 Liter/100km, 262g/km); a 3.0-litre twin-turbo diesel (286hp, 580Nm; 0-100km/h in 6.9 seconds, 236km/h, 8.3 Liter/100km, 220g/km) and a single-turbo 3.0-litre diesel (235hp, 520Nm; 0-100km/h in 8.0 seconds, 210km/h, 8.2 Liter/100km, 217g/km). The four models will be badged BMW X6 xDrive50i, X6 xDrive35i, X6 xDrive35d, X6 xDrive30d respectively. Intelligent XDrive all-wheel drive and Dynamic Performance Control will be standard on all models.
