BMW has officially unveiled today the brand-new 2015 X6. The new Bavarian SAC model is scheduled to go on sale this December and in terms of design it follows the footsteps of its predecessor. On the outside, we see a more aggressive and sporty model which comes with improved aerodynamics, unique 19 inch alloy wheels, bi-xenon headlights and automatic tailgate. 

In addition, BMW will offer an M Sport version which can be distinguished by the aerodynamic body kit, a matte aluminum grille and 19 inch lightweight alloy wheels. In addition, the M version will get an upgraded interior, Adaptive M suspensions and a self-leveling rear air suspension. 

Inside the cockpit, the 2015 BMW X6 features the same elements seen on the BMW models. The 2015 X6 has a sport steering wheel, Dakota leather seats and the iDrive infotainment system which works with a 10.25 inch display. 
Other highlights include a dual zone climate control system, center console-mounted knee pads and a luggage compartment that can hold to 1,525 liters (53.8 cubic feet) of cargo.

"Chassis packages raise levels of sportiness and comfort, as desired. Dynamic Performance Control is offered together with Dynamic Drive active roll stabilisation as part of the Dynamic adaptive suspension package to deliver a targeted improvement in the car’s sporty handling attributes. Further enhanced ride comfort can be achieved courtesy of air suspension at the rear axle and Dynamic Damper Control, which are included in both the Comfort adaptive suspension package and Adaptive M suspension (standard on the BMW X6 M50d and part of the M Sport package for the other model variants), which also offers bespoke, sports-oriented suspension tuning", is said in the official statement.
