In 2008 BMW will launch its much discussed all new four door 4x4 Coupe currently dubbed X6. The X6 is said to offer technics and four wheel drive features from BMW’s X5, while its body styling is of the more elegant design of a coupe.
Prototypes of the new model with more or less disguise have been driving around in various places in Germany and the United States for quite some time, but recently the big secret about the rear end styling has finally come to light. These latest photos taken just today in the streets of Munich during a heavy rain shower are showing another prototype of the X6 revealing the sloping roof line and the front end styling.
BMW is expected to use the most powerful engines from the X3 and X5 series for the new X6 such as the Diesel from the X3 which is the new 3.0 litre Twin-Turbo delivering 286 HP, or a fuel engine from the X5, the 4,8 ltre V8 /367 HP. Some time later a V8 Turbo delivering 420 HP will provide the X6 with even more power and faster acceleration, thus another serious rival against Porsche will be on the road from next year on.
