BMW X6
Adding to its fleet of SUVs, BMW released the five-seater X6 in 2008. Falling into the luxury coupe-SUV segment, it more than holds its own against the Audi Q8, Mercedes-Benz GLE Coupe and the Porsche Cayenne Coupe. Available in Sport and high-performance M Series trims, this speedy crossover offers plenty of features for driving comfort and infotainment. The engine line-up matches that of its sibling, the X5, and you’ll get plenty of power whatever variation you choose – from the 258 bhp diesel to the top-line 450 bhp petrol. Despite facing heavy competition, half a million in global sales prove that the X6 remains a top contender in its category.
