Higher Sticker, Same X6: BMW's Coupe-SUV Carries Over for 2027

BMW has started rolling out the X6 for the 2027 model year. The coupe-SUV is essentially unchanged under the skin, but it comes with new prices and minor tweaks to the equipment list. The base X6 xDrive40i now starts at $78,750 in the US, while the X6 M60i opens at $99,450. That matters for buyers: the model is getting more expensive even as the next-generation BMW X5 is already on its way.

The engine line-up for the 2027 X6 is carried over. The xDrive40i runs a 3.0-litre turbocharged inline-six with 375 hp and standard xDrive all-wheel drive. The pricier X6 M60i is powered by a 4.4-litre twin-turbo V8 rated at 523 hp. Both use an eight-speed automatic and a 48-volt mild hybrid system. Zero to 60 mph takes about 5.2 seconds in the xDrive40i and roughly 4.2 seconds in the M60i.

Among the more notable changes is the disappearance of the Dynamic Handling Package on the M60i. It previously cost $2,200 and added chassis tuning for a sharper feel on the road. Remote engine start is no longer offered as a stand-alone option either: you now have to add at least the Premium package, priced at $1,700. Cargo capacity is unchanged — 776 litres with the rear seats up and around 1,688 litres with them folded.
