BMW X6

The new BMW X6 is not an SUV, neither it is a Coupe; it is both of them put together. BMW calls it SAV (Sports Activity Vehicle). We are now supposed to gag at the creative naming system by the ingenious nomenclature gods. Don’t wish for a SUV folks, wish for an SAV. Anyways, coming to the car itself. I mean SAV. (But BMW is calling it Sports Activity Coupe, so it is already a SAC)

The Outside: It does look unique: a cross between a Coupe and an SUV will. A little something like the X5 and a bit like the BMW Z4, you will be forgiven to think that the BMW X6 looks like a British Bulldog from the back. But as stated earlier, it looks good enough to want one

Now, the real goodness about this car; the interior. (with more pictures of X6)

The Inside: But the innovation is not just in the design. The X6 has a twin turbo, 6 cylinder beast for an engine that takes you to 120Kph in less than 7 seconds; that’s bloody fast!

Another standard that comes in the BMW X6 is the world’s first Dynamic Performance Control; in plain English, it means that despite the car’s high center of gravity, it handles remarkably well. This nimble handling is because all the four tyres can now distribute weight amongst themselves to keep the X6 more stable.

Also, in the pictures below, note the Formula 1 type gear shifts mounted on the steering wheel. Surely, this X6 is a unique vehicle. I can not wait to test drive this one and review it here, God willing.
