Driving Pleasure

THE BMW X6 .

JOY MOVES THE MOVERS.

BMW EfficientDynamics

Less emissions. More driving pleasure.

BMW Efﬁ cientDynamics

Less emissions. More driving pleasure.

THE BMW X6.

The 𶉁 rst Sports Activity Coupe.

With Dynamic Performance Control.

EXPERIENCE A COUPE

LIKE NO OTHER.

FOR THE WORLD’S BOULEVARDS AND AVENUES.

AND ALL ROADS – WHERE EYES CAN’T FOLLOW YOU.

A FORM AGAINST THE NORM.

WHATEVER THE ROAD THROWS AT IT, THANKS TO xDRIVE,

THE BMW X6 REMAINS UNRUFFLED.

A NEW CHALLENGE TO THE TIGHTEST BENDS:

DYNAMIC PERFORMANCE CONTROL.

PENETRATING ELEGANCE.

INTO EVERY DETAIL.

FOUR DOORS ARE UNUSUAL ENOUGH FOR A COUPE.

FOR SOMETHING REALLY UNIQUE, JUST OPEN ONE.

Tyres with reduced rolling-resistance

While driving, tyres are constantly changing shape. This uses up energy and

thus fuel. Tyres with reduced rolling-resistance have an improved design and

use special materials for their road treads and side walls, therefore reducing

deformation.

THIS HAS GONE IN.

The pleasure you get from driving a BMW is the result of ﬁ ne engineering – always setting the benchmark because it is based on much more than engine power. This is the tradition behind

BMW Efﬁ cientDynamics. It includes the visionary Hydrogen engine, already used in completely emission-free BMW BMW Hydrogen 7 vehicles and BMW ActiveHybrid technology, an

intelligent, demand-oriented combination of internal combustion engine and electric motor. And every BMW already includes a multi-award-winning BMW Efﬁ cientDynamics technology package as

standard, boosting dynamics even further while signiﬁ cantly reducing fuel consumption and CO

emissions.

High Precision Injection

In this cutting-edge generation of petrol direct injection, the Piezo injectors are positioned very close to the spark plugs. They inject

the fuel at high pressure and with extreme precision. Several injections are possible per ignition process. Thanks to fast and ﬂ exible

electronic control, the timing and quantity of the injections can be precisely adjusted to the power requirement, the temperature and

the pressure in the cylinder – for more output and greater efﬁ ciency.

Air vent control

Engine management signals the engine’s current

cooling requirements while driving, rendering

a permanent airstream through the radiator

unnecessary. The air vents in front of the radiator

open or close depending on the environmental

temperature and road speed. When shut they

improve aerodynamics, shorten the engine’s

warm-up time and so reduce fuel consumption.

Brake Energy Regeneration

To supply a battery with electrical energy, the generator (alternator) is

permanently driven using engine power, which demands additional

fuel consumption. Brake Energy Regeneration means the generator

usually only generates electricity when the driver either takes the

foot off the accelerator or brakes – previously unused kinetic energy

is transformed in coasting mode into electrical energy before being

fed into the battery. In this way, electricity is generated while coasting,

without consuming fuel.

Some BMW EfficientDynamics features are dependent on the car’s equipment and are

not available for all model variants. Your BMW partner will be happy to provide you with

information on all equipment details.

AND THIS IS WHAT COMES OUT.

Thanks to innovative features of BMW

Efﬁ cientDynamics, BMW has been able

to signiﬁ cantly reduce CO

emissions in

many models. But that’s just for starters.

We’re carrying on our research with BMW

Efﬁ cientDynamics – in the quest to bring

you more driving pleasure and less

emissions.

Less emissions. More driving pleasure.

 Standard equipment  Optional equipment

Headlight washing system provides

optimal illumination of the road ahead

in all weather conditions. Headlights are

automatically cleaned in parallel with

the windscreen when the lights are on.

 Xenon Headlights for high and low beam

incl. automatic headlight range control and

headlight washing system, for much better

illumination of the road ahead in bad weather,

at night or in poor visibility. The four light rings

offer a daytime driving light function, and can

also be used as parking lights.

Adaptive Headlights with variable light

distribution, incl. turning lights, optimally

illuminate bends by swivelling headlights as

soon as the driver turns the steering wheel.

The beam is also automatically adjusted

vertically when, for instance, driving over

crests or through hollows. The turning lights

in the fog lights are automatically activated

even at a standstill, when the indicator is used

or with a steering lock of over 10 degrees.

High-beam assistant aids the driver at night

by automatically switching from high to low

beam.

 Fog lights in free-form technology,

integrated in the front air dam, ensure extra

safety in poor visibility.

 Lights package includes rear reading lights,

rear footwell lights, indirectly lit door pockets, exit

lights, and proximity illumination in the outside

door handles. This ensures that the area around

the door is evenly lit when the door is unlocked,

making getting in and out easy and safe.

Dynamic Braking Lights make it easier for

drivers following from behind to see how hard

you are applying the brakes. If you are braking

normally, the brake lights cover a large area,

but only during emergency braking do the brake

lights start to flash. This allows following traffic

to distinguish between a slight tap on the

brakes and full braking – for even greater safety

on the road.

 Standard equipment  Optional equipment

Roof railing, matt black: the roof railing

is also available in black to lend an individual

touch to the exterior of the BMW X6.

Exterior mirrors, electrically adjustable

and heated, finished in body colour (mirror foot

in black), in aspheric design and blue-tinted.

Exterior mirrors, with automatic anti-glare

function, incl. fold-in and automatic parking

functions (standard on ActiveHybrid X6).

Aluminium running boards (105 mm

wide) with rubber inserts give the BMW X6

a particularly individual touch.

BMW Individual High-gloss Shadow Line

covers window cavity cover and window frames

in Black, high-gloss.

Soft Close Automatic: an electric motor pulls

all four doors gently closed when they are within

six millimetres of the lock.

 Rain sensor incl. automatic driving

lights control: once activated, the rain sensor

automatically switches on the windscreen

wipers and controls wiper frequency, depending

on how hard it is raining. This feature includes

automatic driving lights control, switching on

the low-beam headlights automatically, for

example, when it gets dark or when entering

a tunnel.

Roof railing, matt silver: harmoniously

integrated with the car’s design, it provides

a base for the multifunctional BMW roof carrier

for effortless and secure transportation of

luggage, bicycles, surfboards etc.

Sun-protection glazing for the rear side

windows (behind the B-pillar) and rear window.

These tinted windows reduce sun glare and

ensure a pleasant temperature inside the car

even in hot weather.
