BMW X6: F16 vs G06 LCI
Verdict
At RM628,800 versus RM734,800, the BMW X6 F16 is RM106,000 cheaper, and that matters if you are shopping the outgoing generation. The BMW X6 G06 LCI buys clear gains: 335 hp and 450 Nm against 306 hp and 400 Nm, plus a 5.4-second 0-100 km/h time instead of 6.4 seconds. It is also longer and has AEB. But both are five-seat AWD SUVs with the same 580-litre boot, so the newer car is faster and safer on paper, not more useful for luggage.
Pick the BMW X6 F16 if you want the cheaper X6, can live without listed AEB and value the five-year warranty over the newer car’s two-year cover.
Pick the BMW X6 G06 LCI if you want the quicker, newer-generation X6 with 335 hp, 450 Nm, seven airbags and auto emergency braking.
