2022 BMW X6 M
Starting at $
Highs Simply incredible performance for its size, elegant and high-tech interior, no shortage of desirable standard equipment.
Lows Seeing out back can be challenging, firm ride will offend sensitive types, the X5 M has more interior space for less money.
Verdict While not without compromises, the X6 M combines a distinct coupelike profile with transcendent SUV performance.
Overview
The only way onlookers miss the 2022 BMW X6 M is if the unusually styled, ungodly powerful SUV rockets by in a blur. With a 600-plus-hp twin-turbo V-8 powertrain teamed with a rear-biased all-wheel-drive system for max traction, the probability of this hefty M-powered machine appearing and disappearing in a flash is high. Meanwhile, its passengers will be cosseted by a cushy and lavishly appointed cabin. Unfortunately, brittle bodies won’t appreciate its harsh ride, and its sloping rear roofline sacrifices storage space versus the squarer BMW X5 M. While BMW started the polarizing fastback SUV trend with the original X6, imitators such as the Porsche Cayenne Coupe and Mercedes-AMG GLE-class have joined the party. The 2022 X6 M might not be everyone’s cup of high-octane tea, but this is one mid-size luxury SUV that’s likely to garner attention and guaranteed to elicit excitement.
What’s New for 2022?
The 2022 X6 M receives extremely modest changes. These include the addition of enhanced Bluetooth technology on every model and the subtraction of wireless device charging from the list of standard features. Other small changes include the new Dravit Grey metallic exterior paint, Silverstone Extended Merino leather upholstery, and revised option packages.
Pricing and Which One to Buy
X6 M: $110,595
It’s hard to fathom how less practicality can command a higher price. Still, the 2022 X6 M costs $3500 more than its squareback counterpart, the X5 M. We prefer the less expensive body style, but the X6 certainly attracts more attention. Regardless, the Competition package is a must-have. Not only does it bring 617 horsepower—17 more than normal—but it has better standard equipment too. This includes a sport-tuned exhaust, an exclusive Track mode, and 22-inch rear wheels (versus 21-inchers). The Competition package also brings fancier leather upholstery and knee padding on the center console to reduce punishment during hard cornering.
Engine, Transmission, and Performance
Gifted with the same raucous engine that powers the BMW M5 sedan, the X6 M is motivated by a twin-turbo V-8. It makes 600 horsepower and 553 pound-feet of torque in its natural state and 617 ponies with the Competition package. The engine hooks up to an eight-speed automatic transmission that feeds a dynamic all-wheel-drive system. This drivetrain can be told to distribute power to all four wheels for maximum traction or have most of it sent rearward for sharper handling. In addition to its selectable drive modes, including customizable settings that can be activated via steering-wheel-mounted buttons, the X6 M even features adjustable brake-pedal feedback. The BMW also has standard adaptive dampers and a set of 21-inch wheels, but a pair of 22-inchers can be fitted out back (they’re standard on the X6 M Competition). We’ve driven the X6 M Competition and lauded its lightning-quick acceleration, staggering cornering grip, and strong, fade-free brakes. While it rode smooth and steady on the highway, its large wheels and stiff springs contributed to a rocky ride on uneven roads.
