Apart from the BMW X6 M, the xDrive50i was another powerful BMW X6 you could get in 2019, which, despite lacking an M badge, featured the infamous V8. When this X6 lineup was released, some reviewers recommended getting the base trims, such as the sDrive35i, and spending on optional upgrades, such as the M sport package, for added potential. But you don’t have to do that now since you can get this xDrive50i for half what it costs when new. Like the X2, the 2019 BMW X6 xDrive50i is not boxy, but you’ll hardly realize you’re inside a coupe SUV because of its bigger interior dimensions. We’ll discuss all that, but let's start with its performance.
Most buyers of the X6 are motivated by what’s under the hood. As a performance SUV, the 2019 BMW X6 xDrive50i is powered by a 4.4L twin-turbo V8, similar to the BMW X6 M50i, but makes less power at 456 horsepower and 479 lb-ft of torque. When such a potent powertrain is mated to an 8-speed automatic transmission, it produces a strong acceleration, which pushes it to 60 mph in 4.6 seconds. One drawback is that its steering wheel is slightly unresponsive, which might affect handling dynamics. However, if you find a model fitted with the handling dynamic package, this issue will be solved, and you can enjoy hitting the 155 mph top speed while still enjoying the ride.
This is one area where the 2019 BMW X6 xDrive50i excels, regardless of it carrying the notion of its cramped cabin thanks to its fastback roofline. While that’s still the case, meaning the back seat has limited head and legroom, BMW managed to make it feel roomy, with comfortable sitting for five people. The comfort aspect is because the front seats are heated and power-adjustable, but you would have to get the executive package for the same experience at the back. Storage space is also decent, with pockets in door panels and decent cargo space.
If the X6 didn’t look good and appeal to many, BMW would’ve discontinued it after the first generation. But now, the 2019 BMW X6 xDrive50i is part of the second generation, meaning people love the fastback profile. Besides, this SUV undergoes upgrades every year to improve its looks. You’d particularly love it because it looks sporty and stylish, and with a V8 engine, that’s not just a perception. The sleek lines at the hood and on the side profiles are there for aerodynamics, which is something common with performance cars.
BMW X6 SUVs from 2019 and earlier were equipped with just the right number of features as standard, with an option to get even more with subscriptions or one-off payments. For instance, the infotainment screen runs on the iDrive 7.0 system, which supports Apple CarPlay as a subscription-based feature but lacks Android Auto compatibility. Luckily, the infotainment supports navigation, Bluetooth connectivity, and SiriusXM. In the 2018 model, the Active Driving Assistant package, which features forward collision mitigation and blind-spot monitoring, was provided as an extra, but it is standard in this model.
If you plan to buy a 2019 BMW X6 xDrive50i, and you should be, you’ll need about $35,000. However, depending on the upgrades made by the first-time buyer, prices can go as high as $45,000.

Every year, BMW invests a lot of resources in refining models such as the X6. For the 2019 model year, we have seen how the powertrain harmoniously supports the drivetrain components to give you the best ride quality.
