The 2027 BMW X6 is offered in three powertrain configurations with outputs ranging from 375 hp to 617 hp. The BMW X6 xDrive40i pairs a 3.0L BMW TwinPower Turbo inline-six with 48V mild-hybrid technology to produce 375 hp and 398 lb-ft of torque. The BMW X6 M60i uses a 4.4L BMW M TwinPower Turbo V8 producing 523 hp and 553 lb-ft of torque, also supported by 48V mild-hybrid technology. The BMW X6 M Competition produces 617 hp from a 4.4L BMW M TwinPower Turbo V8 and reaches 60 mph in 3.7 seconds.
All three configurations use an 8-speed automatic transmission and all-wheel drive, with model-specific drivetrain and chassis calibration.
BMW TwinPower Turbo technology refers to a combination of engine technologies rather than a literal two-turbocharger arrangement on every engine.
On the inline-six in the BMW X6 xDrive40i, the system includes a twin-scroll turbocharger working alongside Double-VANOS variable valve timing, Valvetronic variable valve lift, and High Precision Direct Injection.
Maximum torque of 398 lb-ft is available from 1,850 to 5,000 rpm, supporting torque delivery across a broad engine-speed range.
The 48V mild-hybrid system adds electrical assistance to the combustion engine. Under applicable operating conditions, the 48V system can recuperate energy during deceleration and provide electrical assistance to the combustion engine.
This is not a plug-in system and does not provide a dedicated electric-only driving range.
On the BMW X6 M60i and BMW X6 M Competition, the mild-hybrid architecture supports a 4.4L V8 with twin turbochargers in a cross-bank arrangement. The BMW X6 M60i produces 523 hp between 5,500 and 6,000 rpm, with 553 lb-ft of torque available from 1,800 rpm. The BMW X6 M Competition produces 617 hp at 6,000 rpm and 553 lb-ft of torque from 1,800 through 5,800 rpm.
The BMW X6 xDrive40i is powered by a 3.0L inline-six producing 375 hp at 5,200 to 6,250 rpm and 398 lb-ft of torque at 1,850 to 5,000 rpm. The 8-speed automatic transmission sends power through BMW xDrive all-wheel drive, and Adaptive M Suspension is standard. EPA-rated fuel economy is 21 mpg city and 26 mpg highway. Zero-to-60 mph takes 5.2 seconds. Driving Dynamics Control offers SPORT, COMFORT, and ECO PRO modes. Standard equipment also includes Hill Descent Control, Launch Control, and Brake Energy Regeneration tied to the mild-hybrid system.
The BMW X6 M60i uses a 4.4L V8 producing 523 hp and 553 lb-ft of torque. Zero-to-60 mph takes 4.2 seconds. The BMW X6 M60i adds an M Sport Exhaust System and M Sport Differential as standard equipment. Integral Active Steering is also standard on the BMW X6 M60i and can adjust rear-wheel steering angle according to vehicle speed and driving conditions. M Sport Brakes with blue calipers are standard. EPA-rated fuel economy is 17 mpg city and 22 mpg highway.
The BMW X6 M Competition uses a 4.4L V8 producing 617 hp at 6,000 rpm and 553 lb-ft of torque from 1,800 through 5,800 rpm. Zero-to-60 mph takes 3.7 seconds, and top speed is listed at 155 mph. EPA-rated fuel economy is 13 mpg city and 18 mpg highway. The BMW X6 M Competition is a dedicated BMW M vehicle with model-specific suspension, braking, and drivetrain calibration.
The BMW X6 xDrive40i combines 375 hp with the highest EPA fuel-economy ratings of the three configurations listed here: 21 mpg city and 26 mpg highway. Its 3.0L inline-six uses 48V mild-hybrid technology that can recuperate energy during deceleration and provide electrical assistance under applicable operating conditions.
The BMW X6 M60i increases output to 523 hp and 553 lb-ft of torque and adds the M Sport Differential and M Sport Exhaust System. The BMW X6 xDrive40i is rated to tow up to 7,209 lbs when properly equipped. The trailer hitch is available as a standalone option.
Actual towing suitability depends on trailer weight, vehicle loading, equipment, tongue weight, and other applicable limits. The BMW X6 M Competition produces 617 hp and reaches 60 mph in 3.7 seconds, with model-specific M suspension, braking, and drivetrain calibration.
