This car is now a common sight on our kenyan roads. Carz
has decided to do a faeture on it to enable the average car lover to get its specs and see why it is suitable for the well to do kenyan.Its elegance will fascinate you, its agility will inspire you and its presence will impress you. The BMW X6 unites agility, performance and athletic design in a large BMW coupé with the versatility and raised seating position normally only found in an SAV. Once again BMW has defined a completely new vehicle concept.
And if that isn't impressive enough, the BMW X6 also offers two world premieres: standard Dynamic Performance Control and the completely newly developed TwinPower Turbo V8 petrol engine with direct petrol injection – the most efficient engine in its class. It also features BMW EfficientDynamics, a technology package that provides increased driving dynamics with lower fuel consumption. The package includes technologies such as Brake Energy Regeneration, air vent control and intelligent lightweight construction. Experience a coupé like no other.
The design of the BMW X6 fuses the elegance of a sport coupe with the off road potential of a 4x4 platform. The shape of the roof, which slopes down rapidly after the B-pillar and flows into the tail lends the X6 a sense of speed even when stationary. Carz
Apart from the sloping roofline the X6 concept is rather ordinary, as is usually the case with concepts which are nearly production ready. The front end is similar to the BMW X5, but with a slightly more car-like appearance. The strong styling lines down either side, mixed with the mildly flared wheel arches give the X6 a purposeful stance. Towards the back the X6 has a stylish and attractive rear which again has a more car-like appearance than the other 4x4 offerings from BMW.Carz
