For the people calling it a waste of money and useless, think again. Theres a reason why Mercedes is releasing the GLE and Tesla is releasing the Model X. You'll be surprised to know that the demand for the X6 has risen dramatically therefore Mercedes saw an opportunity and offered the GLE in order to compete against the X6. Bottom line is that, there is a huge market for the X6. I personally love the X6 and the design because its different from other box-shaped cars you see everyday on the road. Its an elegant design and I respect BMW for their creativity.
thats because supid people buy them. they are too big and bulky to have fun with them. they do not any good on off road (no differantials) and they are anything but practical. for that money i would buy a maserati and have BY FAR more fun with it. but stupid people think big is good so they buy x6, GLE coupe and other shit cars
Most people who talk badly about this car is because they can't afford it, or have made the mistake of buying an Audi or Range Rover instead. I won't talk badly about Mercedes or Porsche because they are both great cars, just like BMW. The interior isn't very basic, it looks luxury and sleek. Plain, but classy. If you want to know what separates this from the hearse looking Range Rover or a Q7 for example, is the way this 5000lb car handles the road - better than an Audi sportscar and a million times better than a Range Rover would ever dream of. On top of that, power is more than enough, especially in the 50i. I won't bring up the X6M because it makes some super cars look like a Toyota Prius in a straight line.
Michael Riche The only people I've ever seen drive this, are those that live in £10million houses near where I live and work, and already own an X5......
Many were against the x6's styling. Then Tesla pretty much based every one of their SUV's on it. Now it's cutting edge. LOL. Gotta love the general public's opinion.
Friends.. I am a proud x6 owner last 1 year. I drove almost all sedan and xuv.. x6 is only 60 % off roader but its sudden acceleration is awesome.. and comfort 100%. if you are not rich you will feel its hunger for fuel and the driving position is extreme.. for those who hate x6 open you eyes and try to feel the x6.. you will never regret.
Have owned a 2012 40D M for four years now and have put just over 110,000 km on it. It’s done long highway trips, mild off road, beach and every day driving Still pulls like a train and handles like it’s on rails
IT IS SO BEAUTIFUL! How can anyone hate it! It drives amazingly, has enough space in the back for children and has a big boot!It also has amazing safety, and its a BMW
Another great review from Mat and CarBuyer! I gave it a Like for that reason, even though I'm not a fan of the aesthetics of the X6. To me, it's not appealing in the least.
This car is a beast even with the weakest engine, I bet 80% if you talking shit about this car are probably dreaming because you will never be able to afford it
The x6 is based on the x5 platform, basically the same car with a coupe body on it. How come that the x5 had a bad liability record and the x6 is fine?
Iam planning to buy bmw my next car just confused between x5 or x6 give your opinion with reasons why should i buy x5 or. X6 x6 is bit expansive as well does it worth the price
It doesnt really affect the ride quality with a car that has adaptive drive/susp. In fact, high profile (winter)tires make my 7series a lot more stiff and bumpy than having low profile (summer tire) on.
I completely agree with you, because I have been in a BMW X6 in North America, it is not special, but the worst thing for me was the styling, I like the styling of the X5 better than the X6, for my money, I think i would take the X5, because you can have a 7 seat option(okay, not as well as a Mercedes GL) and it is more practical, can I ask, are you a Mercedes fan?
hey Matt, big fan of your reviews, can I give you an idea, I think you should make a review together vwith Rebecca one day, let's say X5 vs M class, would have been awesome
Oh just wanted to add this. The X6 is pretty much just the same as the Merc CLS, audi A7, BMW 6 gran coupe. But with a higher ground clearance of course, and WITH maintained ride comfort.
Has BMW changed so much? I mean...I love the old beamers from the '80 and '90 (including my favorite E31 8 series...I'm hypnotized by its beauty) but after the '00 I feel less impressed by BMW's designs. The enormous grill, disproportionate headlamps etc...I don't know, maybe I'm just getting old but nowadays I prefer Merc's designs...damn...I am getting old :(
What are you talking about? These cars are aerodynamic large coupes that can be comfortable and sporty, and relatively economic (compared to this) exactly because of their ride height. Because this is so high, it needs to be stiff to avoid body roll and isn't economical, again because of its ride height and shape, and surely isn't as sporty as those are. And since it's such stiff suspension it isn't any good offroad,
Cedric Zhang I used to live in Thailand for a while, we had a x5, x6, Z4 and lotus elise at the same time and it was costing the equivalent of 1.1million for them all
For me , SUV are enormous toys for people who think that biggest is the best . It could be the reason why they are so popular in US . In terms of common sence , I only allow hatchbacks , estates , MPVs and real off-roaders for using in the field . But some people like to be diferent and have lot of money - so they want to show that . And there is no argument why you need such car - you buy it only because you can have one and others can't .
Yeah I've been in an X6 and I really don't get it. Especially since the X3 redesign there's really no reason to not buy either the X5 or the X3 if you want a BMW SUV...
I'm a through and through Merc man and still am . I bought a 35d nearly a year ago after must deliberation to replace my ML , loved the look but regretted my choice for a while however the drive and ride has grown on me 25000 miles later I love it and it hasn't put a foot wrong but ............. It'll be a Merc I replace it with .
Lineage2MediaCom I have a x6 40d, it's just the same as the x5 inside and out (except from the shape). It is also a bit quicker to 60 and 100 mph as my old x5 was the m50d like the one in this video and it did it in the same time as the x6 that I have now.
despite it bads points ....usually only 4 seats ..poor rear headroom etc etc people are still buying these cars purely on the looks and status of the thing.

Yo ass talk a lot
+Abu Sufian Actually, yours is talking right now...
+PunjabiVenomz Mate I love BMW, I drive the new 2 series . It is just so big and bulky would not you agree .
elegant? lmao

This car is just breath taking in real life !!! I can't believe dislike it, they clearly know nothing about design
ya of course ,that's why Mercedes copied it- Mercedes-Benz GLE Class
Yeah they actually look quite cool
To my eyes, this is the best looking bimmer ever!!
Up to a few days ago I hated the X6, never even thought about them, but they’ve just grown on me overnight, would love to own one, especially the M50d
I love it when I see these on the road! Totally stand out from other cars. That rear view is tiny though!!!
This guy is one of the best auto reviewers out there!
Well he is still today. ❤️ @carwow
It is special feeling to me, driving for four years and still keep it on good conditions.
are you still rocking it?

Exactly, even Lambo have copied it (I'll rephrase that to taken inspiration from 👀😳😂)
Isn't the model x just an standard suv body?

PLEASE DO THE NEW X6
Have owned a 2012 40D M for four years now and have put just over 110,000 km on it. It’s done long highway trips, mild off road, beach and every day driving
Still pulls like a train and handles like it’s on rails
Why does it handle like it’s on rails?
What are the issues with the car.
I love this vehicle! I'm going to buy it next month in silver.
Looks good, drives good! I love it!

car is so beautiful!
We love tis car!
Even now???
@@J26NGH lol but still haven’t age that bad
Came back to this video after 11 years & it’s still a relevant video for those who’s looking for used X6 like me, so good job Matt~ 😁
I’ve w166 2012 ML and I might consider selling it to buy one of these 3.5 petrol version
car buyer are my favourite car reviewers
BMW X6: cuteness on a whole new level 🥰🚗😍 This car inspired me to write a poem about her!
saw a bmx x6m today, really epic!
Remember this?
exactly why would you have this over an m5? makes no sense, because it doesn't even have a big boot
The best looking car out there period
IT IS SO BEAUTIFUL! How can anyone hate it! It drives amazingly, has enough space in the back for children and has a big boot!It also has amazing safety, and its a BMW
if u are aganist the x6 more likely u cant afford ir
Exactly only ppl who can't afford it , if I have money I'll buy this car right away .!! It's unique ..!!!
True.
I’m looking at buying one now 7 years after this video 🤣 I’ve been driving for 8 years now and can afford one now lol
My dad was text driving this car it was like red violet in the interior and white on the outside
I wanna know if you’re from Zimbabwe.
The design of the car stole my heart! I am not even a car-guy :D It is ASTONISHING!!
I have bmw x6 and I jut loving it
compared to the previous model, this one looks gorgeous.
I like this car. I just hope that BMW will redesign it for the 2020 model
Jeremy doesn't do pure reviews. He does car shows.
Test driving next week!
What car do you drive Mat ? Also, please stop recommending Land Rovers and Range Rovers.
Another great review from Mat and CarBuyer! I gave it a Like for that reason, even though I'm not a fan of the aesthetics of the X6. To me, it's not appealing in the least.
I have been waiting Mat!
I like this car a lot, i love the way it looks except for directly from the side, and it is fun to drive and ride in, but it rides very stiff
The glove box, "It works well here, but what if your the wrong way up? To find out, I went to Sydney, which is in Australia."
Loved the test drive. Beast man, Big and powerful.
This car is a beast even with the weakest engine, I bet 80% if you talking shit about this car are probably dreaming because you will never be able to afford it
is the range rover evoque a competitor to this?
I used to own a bmw x5 and an alfa gulieta but we sold them and got an x6 and it's a beast
I'm loving my 2013 X6 50i with M Sport!!
the x6 is a batmobile
I just recently traded my white one for a black one that has an M engine and loving it.
i want BMW X6. I LIKE IT A LOT IT'S AWESOME
The x6 is based on the x5 platform, basically the same car with a coupe body on it. How come that the x5 had a bad liability record and the x6 is fine?
Because nobody buys the x6 because it's ugly af
4 scoops GODDAMMIT wtf best selling model at his class.
Çağrı Koçaslan yes and this class is absolute shite
4 scoops GODDAMMIT its a whole another arguement which i could agree.
Because their not the same, there’s many differences and the x6 is built better. Thus the price increase
Test drive it. Dynamic drive is one awesome invention.
do the videos end early?
how did the x6 go from such a small grille to such a big grille now
mine isnt. if its cause of adverts u should download adblock plus.
INSHA ALLAH. I want one. 🙏🙏🙏
How can you say a car made by BMW isn't a BMW?
Inshallah
is that bmw is stick shift?
Iam planning to buy bmw my next car just confused between x5 or x6 give your opinion with reasons why should i buy x5 or. X6 x6 is bit expansive as well does it worth the price
He did you decide? I'm in the same situation..
X6 more exclusive, 4 seats , no boot space, but better built and better drive.
Louis James it has 5 seats
It doesnt really affect the ride quality with a car that has adaptive drive/susp. In fact, high profile (winter)tires make my 7series a lot more stiff and bumpy than having low profile (summer tire) on.
well mine was yesterday...maybe a new layout is coming out soon....time to get used to it ....AGAIN!
can we get the new clio review
White X6 look like a panda
i always thought it looks like a rhino from behind
You forgot to say this is the X6M50d M Performance version.
nothing else quite like it? ever heard of the acura zdx?
I didn't understand what you ment, until I got to the the end...
I completely agree with you, because I have been in a BMW X6 in North America, it is not special, but the worst thing for me was the styling, I like the styling of the X5 better than the X6, for my money, I think i would take the X5, because you can have a 7 seat option(okay, not as well as a Mercedes GL) and it is more practical, can I ask, are you a Mercedes fan?
hey Matt, big fan of your reviews, can I give you an idea, I think you should make a review together vwith Rebecca one day, let's say X5 vs M class, would have been awesome
this one actually has the optional full led headlamps, not xenons like he said
Oh just wanted to add this.
The X6 is pretty much just the same as the Merc CLS, audi A7, BMW 6 gran coupe.
But with a higher ground clearance of course, and WITH maintained ride comfort.
Can you do a Dacia Sandero review when you get hold of one?
How does he not talk about the 740 NM this thing produces...
Audi Q7 review please
Is there a chance for a review of the Infiniti FX? It would compare really well with this thing. A big SUV with no off-road capabilities.
now he is on carwow
going out like im montana
Make a review on Audi Q7 please!!
Has BMW changed so much? I mean...I love the old beamers from the '80 and '90 (including my favorite E31 8 series...I'm hypnotized by its beauty) but after the '00 I feel less impressed by BMW's designs. The enormous grill, disproportionate headlamps etc...I don't know, maybe I'm just getting old but nowadays I prefer Merc's designs...damn...I am getting old :(
I like this unit... practical enough.

Because this is so high, it needs to be stiff to avoid body roll and isn't economical, again because of its ride height and shape, and surely isn't as sporty as those are. And since it's such stiff suspension it isn't any good offroad,
I had to walk past one of these for three days on holiday in France, at first I laughed at it, now I want one...
in what way?
You shouldn't compare the A7 with the X6, the A7 is more like the 6-seires Gran Coupé.
You must review aostn Martin
Just bought it today
you ever heard of the range rover evoque?
Have you seen the new 6 wheel version!!!!!! that is too sick!
In China, it costs 100000GBP to buy the basic BMW X6 model, if it is the X6M, sports version, the cost is nearly doubled.
***** surely blocked, I posted this comment when I staying in London for my master study//VPN is used when I try to get access from China
True, but this one isn't available in China the diesel isn't good enough for BMW.
Cedric Zhang I used to live in Thailand for a while, we had a x5, x6, Z4 and lotus elise at the same time and it was costing the equivalent of 1.1million for them all
We now have another x6 back in the uk which cost 78000 and that was the m50d with every possible extra
Oh my god THANKYOUTHANKYOU! It's back to normal! :D
thank you BMW for these cars thank you
Woooooww i watch this vid now in 2023 and it is so strange tos ee Matt presentating non-CarWoW vids.
And that is just for looks i guess? Cause you can't see through the back window when you are driving.
Majority of us bought this car bcoz of the look
do a review on audi Q7
For me , SUV are enormous toys for people who think that biggest is the best . It could be the reason why they are so popular in US . In terms of common sence , I only allow hatchbacks , estates , MPVs and real off-roaders for using in the field . But some people like to be diferent and have lot of money - so they want to show that . And there is no argument why you need such car - you buy it only because you can have one and others can't .
i supose you love vw and porshe
I watched a video called "Drinking from the BOTTLE" and this video was suggested next to it. LOL!
RENAULT 4TH REVIEW PLEASE
Is it an automatic?
Matty .B yes
Looks sells. Plain and simple.
Yeah I've been in an X6 and I really don't get it. Especially since the X3 redesign there's really no reason to not buy either the X5 or the X3 if you want a BMW SUV...
I'm a through and through Merc man and still am .

It'll be a Merc I replace it with .
I LOVE BMW X6
he should do a review on the bmw x6 M....
Is it better?
got myself an x5, and now i dream of an x6. but myself i m a looks guy .
Lineage2MediaCom I have a x6 40d, it's just the same as the x5 inside and out (except from the shape). It is also a bit quicker to 60 and 100 mph as my old x5 was the m50d like the one in this video and it did it in the same time as the x6 that I have now.
X6 has hundreds of differences inside and underneath over the x5. You’re bullshitting
im pretty sure the next video is gonna be on the new skoda superb
despite it bads points ....usually only 4 seats ..poor rear headroom etc etc people are still buying these cars purely on the looks and status of the thing.
The Acura ZDX and Honda Crosstour are just like the BMW X6.
why dont you make a review for bmw x6 2015 ??
