In Bimmer Land, M signifies a model that’s been heavily modded by subsidiary BMW M GmbH. M standing for Motorsports, naturally.
-
An M makeover typically includes more power, more tech and a highly refined suspension.
-
The ’15 X6 M is 1.8 inches longer than before. Styling updates include deep body-side creases that flow over the rear fenders, adding both a sense of fluidity and aggression. A revised front fascia houses a pair of large air intakes. The front fenders get functional gills and the rear fascia adds a diffuser, twin exhaust outlets and a spoiler.
-
Inside, there’s a head-up display, a new, M-badged steering wheel and multifunction M sport seats. The standard features list includes four-zone automatic climate control, a rearview camera and a Harman Kardon surround sound audio system.
-
The new rig is powered by a turbocharged 4.4-liter V-8 that makes 567-horsepower and 555 pound-feet of torque. The transmission is a unique, three-mode eight-speed automatic which BMW says works like an automated manual. It makes very quick shifts and its broadly spaced ratios are largely responsible for this year’s 20-percent efficiency gain.

Ride-height is lowered nearly an inch from stock and an adaptive suspension adjusts to road conditions in real-time. The front suspension has been revised to minimize understeer in fast corners. All-wheel drive and dynamic stability control are standard.
