DESIRABLE, FAST and special the BMW X5 M and X6 M may be, but you’ll need deep pockets to park one in your driveway when they arrive in local showrooms in May.
Both models will be offered for the first time in Competition guise only, guaranteeing local customers the highest possible level of specification and power output.
The new models combine the acclaimed X5 and X6 platforms with the most powerful engine in the segment: the mighty 460kW and 750Nm BMW M TwinPower Turbo V8 engine.
