The third-generation G06 BMW X6 first made its global debut in July 2019, and the coupe sibling to the latest X5 has now been launched in Thailand. Offered in a sole xDrive30d M Drive variant, the SUV is priced at 7.299 million baht (RM960,380), making it considerably more expensive than the X5 xDrive30d M Sport that goes for 5.659 million baht (RM744,778).

This setup, which is identical to the one found in the X5, is good for a zero to 100 km/h time of 6.5 seconds and a top speed of 230 km/h, along with a rated combined fuel consumption of 6.9 litres per 100 km.
The X6’s standard M Drive package includes sporty bumpers at the front and rear, which are complemented with an M Aerodynamics kit and BMW Individual high-gloss Shadow Line package. Also on are BMW Laserlight headlamps, an illuminated kidney grille (Iconic Glow), a panoramic glass roof, soft-closing doors, an M Sport exhaust system, 22-inch M light alloy double-spoke style wheels, and adaptive M suspension.
As for the interior, the front sport seats are electrically adjustable with memory functions, while the cabin is dressed in Vernasca perforated leather, carbon-fibre and leather trim, and an anthracite headliner.
