2013 BMW X6M Review and Road Test

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

With Mercedes cranking out AWD versions of their AMG products and Audi finally bringing their AWD "RS" products to America, it was only a matter of time before BMW have in and added some front-wheel motivation to their M5. Just kidding. BMW maintains that the M5 will forever retain RWD driving dynamics which puts their emphasis on dynamics rather than absolute acceleration. BMW's answer to this deficiency since 2010 comes in the form of the X5M and X6M cousins.
Why are we looking at the 2013 X6M when 2014 is bringing an all-new X5? Easy, the X5M won't roll into town until the 2015 model year we're told and the X6 has yet to be officially refreshed putting its new body back to the 2015 model year in all likelihood. If you want a fast AWD BMW and can't wait for the refresh, act now.

    Congratulations! As a X6M owner I can only confirm the contents of this excellent in-depth review. Alex did his homework and covered just about the entire spectrum of this incredible vehicle. Awesome work Alex! And yes, after 35k miles wihtout a single problem I can attest that this is a car without equal. I custom ordered a 2014 Cayenne turbo last year (delivered late oct 2013) for my wife and can honestly say that I prefer the X6M. What more can I say.

    Ah, I know what you mean. I have usually heard it called a chauffer button for some reason. My Jaguar Super V8 has one as well. The X6M does not. I have a soft sport for the "new BMW" because they are becoming more and more luxurious and soft over time. I'm still not sure if BMW fans like to hear that or not.

    Ha, I can definitely tell you that the BMW fan boys don't like hearing that Alex, but you and I both know that the market demands it. Those wishing for harsher, more rough and track-ready setups are in the financial/purchasing minority though, and the aftermarket is still there to cater to their needs. Great review, enjoyed it as always.

    I did mention the Cayenne in the video but the competing model is more than 50% more expensive so that makes comparisons tricky. Porsche didn't have a car on hand to evaluate but from past experienced the Cayenne handles very well, performs similarly, has a slightly nicer interior and costs considerably more.

    That and you can rack up a 5-series base price just in options on a Cayenne. They drive magnificently for something that presents itself as a "utility vehicle," but Porsche is the master of nickel-and-diming a car out of its price class, even for the most basic features you'd expect to be standard on an $80K+ luxury vehicle.

    I thought that in tire sizes such as 295-45-20, the 295 would designate the tire height and the "45" would be the width...? Am I wrong? It drove me crazy to watch the reviewer admiring the tire width while verbalizing the tire height.

  • @AAutoBuyersGuide

    C Straley 295 is the width, 45 is the aspect ratio of width to height and 20 is the diameter of the wheel.

    Your reviews are good, but you use an alternative form of English which is characterized by awkwardly constructing gerunds (e.g. "corner carving") instead of using normal phrases (e.g. "carving corners"). I realize this form of English is used almost without exception in press releases, but you don't have the excuse of working in the advertising industry. [See also: "Much. Too. Frequent. Periods."] Is this intentional?
