SUVs have been getting faster, quicker, and more powerful over the years, and BMW hasn't been left behind. The German automaker was one of the earliest manufacturers to make fast SUVs, with the BMW X6 M being among the first mainstream ones they made. Sure, the 2020 BMW X6 M isn't as flashy as other premium high-performance SUVs, for example, the Lamborghini Urus or Aston Martin DBX, but you bet it can keep up with them, sometimes even beating them. And if you want faster, you go for the best in the range, the 2020 X6 M Competition. Its only downside is that it's a slightly older model year, and its coupe design limits interior space. Aside from that, it's just as good as the newer models. Now, let's talk about what's under the hood.
Performance is always associated with the Competition name in BMW's lineup and the M as well, although not always. The 2020 BMW X6 M includes both, guaranteeing you the best of what was available in BMW's M Division in 2020. Powering it is a 4.4-liter twin-turbocharged V8 sending 617 horsepower and 553 lb.ft to all four wheels via an 8-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission. With such power figures, you know the performance numbers are even better. 0-60 should take 3.6 seconds, give or take, and the top speed maxes out at 177 mph. The top speed may not sound like much, but imagine reaching 177 mph in a 5,300-pound SUV.
Opinions on the looks of coupe SUVs, like the 2020 BMW X6 M Competition, vary, but most agree that they can be somewhat impractical. While the cabin comfortably seats five, it doesn't feel as spacious as in the X5 M Competition, which also offers more trunk space. However, the cabin is well-appointed. The front seats are comfortable and supportive, making the X6 M a great daily driver. The rear seats are typical for a second row, but the amenities are plentiful, and the materials used are top-notch, balancing character, luxury, and performance.
Even with its dramatic front fascia, the 2020 BMW X6 M Competition's overall design remains well-balanced, offering refinement and a sporty edge. The side profile shows this best, with the sculpted wheel arches emphasizing the car's character and the high profile giving the car a purposeful aesthetic being an SUV. The rear end takes the same approach with its massive wrap-around taillights that almost extend to meet at the center of the liftgate, which is notched, adding a sporty touch to the rear end. The notch extends from the sloping roofline that gives the car a coupe silhouette, which, even though you're unsure about it, you'll soon come to like. Further down the liftgate, the rear diffuser and quad exhaust setup add a touch of character.
Despite its size, BMW made the 2020 X6 M Competition more agile by updating several suspension components from previous models. Enhancements include improved chassis bracing, stiffer engine mounts, and optimized camber for better suspension response and handling. Complementing the suspension is an Active Differential that links the all-wheel-drive system to the dynamic stability control system, ensuring a confident drive even in the most demanding driving situations. Enough about what happens underneath and let's get inside the cabin where you'll get twin 12.3-inch displays, one serving as the instrument cluster and the other as the infotainment display. Each has its own set of features but we'll not get into that. Additionally, some examples have second-row displays mounted behind the front seats, which come in handy if kids are in the rear seats. If you're considering buying a 2020 BMW X6 M Competition, how much are you looking at spending?
Prices for the 2020 BMW X6 M Competition average around $70,000, which is quite a bargain for what the car offers. You could find other options at that price, but they won't match the competitive edge of a BMW SUV. Well, unless it's an X5 M Competition. If you're interested in either, browse through our BMW listings to compare the current options for sale. But if you're specifically looking for an X6 M Competition, check our BMW X6 listings.
Although the coupe-SUV design may not suit everyone's taste, the 2020 BMW X6 M Competition's impressive power, dynamic handling, and value for money make it a standout in the high-performance SUV segment. The interior, while a bit less spacious, does everything you'd expect from an SUV. So, don't let anything hold you back from buying one.
