2015 BMW X6 review

1. Surprisingly fewer trips to the pumps 

Go further on a gas tank than you might expect in the 2015 BMW X6. For example, the 2015 BMW X6 with RWD and turbocharged six-cylinder engine gets the best fuel economy of the lineup at an EPA-estimated 25 mpg highway and 18 mpg city.

However, if you choose the AWD 2015 BWM X6 with the same engine, you still get EPA-estimated 24 mpg highway fuel economy.

2. Confident handling and performance 

The 2015 BMW X6 handles more like a sedan than an SUV. That’s because the suspension is stiffened to keep the wheels planted, while a snappy eight-speed automatic transmission keeps the engine power ready for when you demand it. If you pick a 2015 BMW X6 xDrive, you get the added traction benefit of AWD, which keeps power going to the wheels with the most grip. So, let the responsive steering and quick acceleration in the 2015 BMW X6 make any trip more fun. 

3. High-horsepower engine choices 

Getting things started strong, the 2015 BMW X6 base engine is a capable 300-hp turbocharged six-cylinder. Or, look for the 2015 BMW X6 with the available 455-hp turbocharged V8 engine, which blasts from zero to 60 mph in just 4.6 seconds (when new). Either way, both engines are fun to drive and respond quickly to input to deliver an engaging drive around town or on the freeway. 

4. Comfortable and refined interior 

Sit back and relax in the supportive leather front seats, which are power-adjustable with added lumbar support. Enjoy less outside noise in the cabin thanks to a well-built interior, high-end materials, and excellent suspension dampening. Additionally, when set in comfort mode, the 2015 BMW X6’s ride becomes smooth and refined without any harshness from its sports tuning. 

5. Plenty of standard features 

Get the tech and creature comforts you want, all in the well-equipped standard trim of the 2015 BMW X6. For example, a modern infotainment system with a 10.2-inch screen, navigation, Bluetooth^® connectivity, and a USB port are tech highlights every 2015 BMW X6 has. But there’s also functional equipment, like the power tailgate, adaptive xenon headlights, parking sensors, and dual-zone automatic climate control.
