2025 BMW X6 M

Is the 2025 BMW X6 M a Good SUV?

"Ah, the X6 M. How does 617 horsepower from a twin-turbo V8 strike you? That's actually not an enormous number in the EV world, but if you're shopping in this segment, you're not thinking about EVs right now. And any gas-powered crossover with a 6 at the front of its power rating is a force to be reckoned with. Throw in muscular styling and BMW's typical tech-forward dashboard layout, and you've got a recipe for one of the most interesting SUVs on the planet."—Ranked #2 out of 3 Midsize High-Performance SUV Coupes

If you're interested in this rig, you're not really thinking about cost versus rivals (incidentally, the X6 M's price went up by $2,500 this year), or about how much roomier the X5's interior is.
