2014 BMW X6 review - News - What Car?
Whatever your thoughts are on the X6's looks, it's been a sales success for BMW – globally at least – and to keep the sales coming in, there's a new model for 2014. . The interior has been reworked to improve quality and provide more space and... At launch in December, those engines will be BMW's six-cylinder entry-level 30d and performance-orientated M50d diesels, and a 50i V8 petrol. What’s the 2014 BMW X6 like to drive. The triple-turbo 3. 0-litre diesel engine in the M50d is a real powerhouse, providing huge pull from as low as 1600rpm over a very wide band. Press hard on the accelerator and you can see why it is officially faster to 62mph than the M50d, too, although you'll be hard pushed to notice any advantage in terms of its in-gear acceleration. The petrol is also the more refined engine of the pair we drove, because unlike the diesel, it doesn't send back any trace of vibration through the pedals of wheel when being driven hard. Every X6 gets an eight-speed automatic gearbox as standard, and as with the many other BMWs it's fitted to, it works very well. Source: www.whatcar.com
