BMW X5 M and BMW X6 M technology
Vehicle features and
options
This chapter describes all standard, country-spe‐
cific and optional features offered with the series.
It also describes features that are not necessarily
available in your vehicle, e. g., due to the selected
options or country versions. This also applies to
safety-related functions and systems. When us‐
ing these functions and systems, the applicable
laws and regulations must be observed.
V8 high-performance
engine
General information
With a 4.4 liter displacement, the V8 high-per‐
formance engine generates a maximum power of
567 hp and a maximum torque of
553 lb ft/750 Nm. With its spontaneous re‐
sponse behavior, a speed range of wide utility re‐
sults. The maximum engine speed is 6,800 rpm
and is electronically controlled. Because of the
high engine dynamics, the maximum engine
speed with the vehicle stationary is reduced.
Warm-up
During the engine warm-up phase, the V8 high-
performance engine has a somewhat rougher
running behavior because of the emission con‐
trols.
When the engine is cold, the exhaust system has
a slightly metallic undertone due to the nature of
the system.
For more information about the warm-up proce‐
dure: Engine speed, refer to page 116, and en‐
gine oil temperature, refer to page 116.
Compound brake
The high-performance braking system has per‐
forated compound brake discs.
Because of particular structural characteristics,
there may be operation-related noises during
braking. The functional noises have no effect on
the performance, operational reliability, and dura‐
bility of the brake.
Drivetrain
The xDrive all-wheel-drive system establishes a
permanent variable torque distribution to the
front and rear axles. The combination of xDrive
and Dynamic Performance Control in this vehicle
ensures a high degree of driving dynamics typi‐
cal for BMW M.
With the activation of the M Dynamic mode, dy‐
namics and steering precision can be increased
even more in all speed ranges.
Driving on racetracks
Higher mechanical and thermal loads during
racetrack operation lead to increased wear. This
wear is not covered by the warranty. The vehicle
is not designed for use in motor sports competi‐
tion.
The standard brake linings and the wear indica‐
tors are not designed for racetrack operation.
