    BMW X5 M and X6 M Competition Revealed With 625 HP (460 kW)

    The all-new BMW X5 M, X6 M as well as their Competition variants have been revealed and as expected they pack a mighty punch and look properly mean.

    Just yesterday we shared a teaser of the X6 M Competition drifting and now we have the official shots, clips and info on the third generation of their high-performance executive-class Sports Activity Vehicle (SAV) and Sports Activity Coupe (SAC) models. These M and M Competition models offer more luxury, more style, more tech, and of course, more horsepower than the standard SUVs on which they’re based.

    Both the X5 M and X6 M use the same twin-turbocharged 4.4-litre V8 and an xDrive all-wheel-drive system. In the non-Competition variants, power is a beefy 600 hp (441 kW) with 750 Nm of torque. That is an increase of 24 hp (18 kW) over the outgoing M models, allowing for a 100 km/h sprint in 3.9 seconds.

    The Competition variants pack a proper punch with 625 hp (460 kW) on tap with the same 750 Nm of torque. This allows the speedy SUV’s to sprint to 100 km/h in just 3.8 seconds and on to a top speed of 285 km/h (if you opt for the Drivers package).

    BMW and M engineers reworked the suspension, giving these models an adaptive M suspension setup and with Active Roll Stabilisation standard on all the variants. More power means better stopping power is required and with the larger brakes, you are in safe hands.

    Externally you will see the typical M elements including trim-specific kidney grilles, aerodynamic side mirrors, and larger vents, as well as unique M-coloured stitching, illuminated door sills and unique knee padding inside. Both the X5 M and X6 M ride on new 21-inch M Sport wheels. Inside the M models make use of the Live Cockpit Professional with a 12.3 inch centre screen.

    We simply cannot wait to get our hands on one when they arrive in South Africa around May next year and it sounds like we will only be getting the full-hog Competition variants from launch.

    • We waited a fair bit for the Tiguan R to arrive but that means it has been given enough thought and executed with the sort of German precision that makes us happy to have waited.

As fast SUVs go it’s a cracker, and with a price tag starting from R1,014,900 it is actually decent value in the segment.

It’s fun, aggressive when you want it to be and remarkably civilised when you don’t. Cars like this rarely make sense, but the Tiguan R is one case where that argument starts to change one's mind.

We cannot wait to drive the matching Golf next week!

    • The very first SA-spec BMW M2 snapped at BMW HQ in Midrand.

Zandvoort Blue would not be our choice but the looks have certainly grown on us. What about all of you?

    • If you’re expecting a faster, angrier and more focused version of the original 86, you’re going to be happy with this car.

Toyota finally gave the 86 more power. It’s not take-your-breath-away power, but again, it’s not made to win drag races. If you want more power, get a Supra.

Sure it is a bit more pricey this time around but it is a no-regrets kind of car that you will enjoy just as much today as 10 years from now.

Long live the manual transmission, especially when it’s packaged within something as fun as the Toyota GR86.
