BMW’s niche-making X6 will become the car maker’s biggest and most powerful 4WD when it goes on sale in 2008, but it will also be less practical than either of its smaller siblings, the X3 and X5.

BMW has released the first official pictures and details for the production version of the X6 4WD four-door ‘coupe’ that it previewed in concept form at the 2007 Frankfurt motor show.

As expected, there are virtually no changes in the transition from the Frankfurt motor show concept to the real-world BMW X6 that goes on sale in Australia in July 2008 and, according to BMW, will create a brand new 4WD segment that appeals to performance-car enthusiasts.BWM finally showed off its two-mode hybrid system (the first BMW with two-mode hybrid system) at Frankfurt Motorshow, the idea behind this concept car is “merging the athletic aesthetics of a true sports car with the versatility of an SAV resulted in a new vehicle category that so far has not been realized” as stated on the BMW website. Quoted from Chris Bangle as Chief of Design for BMW Group about BMW concept x6 : “a good concept realizes itself in a short amount of time”. There is no official technical statement from BMW about this BMW X6, but the hybrid system expected to improve fuel efficiency by 20 percent. This car was only a concept till now, I believe this is going to be the basic of the next model BMW car.
