BMW India is soon going to have one of their first car launches of 2020 ans that is going to be third-generation X6. BMW has already commenced bookings for the SUV-coupe and the prices will be announced soon in the coming weeks. The BMW X6 rivals the Audi Q8 and the Porsche Cayenne Coupe in India and it is expected to be priced at around Rs 1 crore (ex-showroom).
BMW has already updated its India website with information regarding the new-gen X6. The BMW X6 will be available in two trims in India – xLine and M Sport. The former gets black body claddings on the front and rear fenders along with generous use of chrome all around the car. The latter, typical to M Sport trims, gets the chrome elements replaced with gloss black bits and it also gets different designs for the alloy wheels.
The interiors of the BMW X6 look familiar to other newer BMW’s like the X5 and the new 3-series.

In the M Sport trim, the X6 will be available M40i-spec, which means it will be powered by a 3.0-litre six-cylinder turbo-petrol engine that develops 340hp and 450Nm of torque. Internationally, the X6 is available with a range of other engine options which include a 530hp, 4.4-litre V8 petrol (M50i); a 400hp, 3.0-litre six-cylinder diesel (M50d); and a 265hp, 3.0-litre diesel (xDrive30d) options.

It was on sale in xDrive35i M Sport form and was priced at Rs 92.20 lakh (ex-showroom, India).
