BMW Unleashes M Powered X5 and X6

By Gunnar Heinrich

BOTH powerful and powerful ugly, BMW has announced its plan to scratch the itch that never was – a 555 hp / 500 lb-ft torqued crossover – or “Sports Activity Coupe” to use BMW speak – and unleash the X6 M onto the  world this week at NYIAS. Also on the cards is an M tuned variant of that most “active” of soccer mom ‘utes – the X5. Armed with pulse-tuned exhaust manifolds, now she really will be the first to the game.
