2023 X6 M Interior

BMW has done well to combine premium luxury with a decidedly sporty feel inside the cabin of the X6 M. As is to be expected of a BMW at this level, the interior build quality feels impeccable and features a strong contemporary design that may lack the flair of the GLE 63, but offers a memorable experience in its own way. The leather-covered dashboard design is clean and flowing, and the generous use of digital displays helps clean things up even more. Interior space is good despite the sloping roofline, and five passengers will happily fit inside. Talking about seats, the front perches offer generous support and look the part too. The interior of the X6 M comes packed with luxury features such as four-zone automatic climate control, a surround-view camera system, and 18-way power-adjustable front seats.

Seating and Interior Space

The X6 M will carry five fully grown adults with ease. In the front, the seating position is naturally higher than you'd find in a sports sedan, but thankfully the front seats are impressively supportive, which adds to driver confidence when pushing through a set of tight bends. Seat comfort in the rear is also excellent and should keep occupants happy on long road trips. There is enough headroom for six-foot-tall passengers and ample legroom in the front. Those in the rear will have to settle for a tighter 35.7 inches of legroom. Visibility out the front is good, but the coupe-like design of the X6 M means that massive blind spots loom behind the driver's shoulders.

Interior Colors and Materials

No matter what interior colors and materials new owners go for here, it is guaranteed to be of premium quality. The X6 M is offered with a wide array of upholstery and trim options, with some coming at an extra cost. The upholstery choices on offer include Black or Silverstone extended Merino leather at no additional cost. Full Merino leather upholstery in Silverstone, Black, Adelaide Grey, Sakhir Orange/Black, or Taruma Brown will add $3,500 to your bill. To get Alcantara cloth in Black with Midrand Beige contrast stitching and those special M-striped seatbelts, you'll have to select the Competition package for an additional $9,300. In terms of trim materials, BMW offers new owners carbon fiber and aluminum crossline options at no extra cost. Individual Piano Black, Fine Wood Ash Grain, and BMW Individual Fineline Black are available at $1,080 each.

2023 X6 M Trunk and Cargo Space

Sure the X6 M is a devilishly fast sports vehicle, but it still has the word 'SUV' stuck to its title, which obviously translates into practicality; after all, why buy such a lumbering machine when it offers no practical trunk and cargo space? The good news is that this midsize crossover coupe will fit enough luggage for five people, or enough groceries to see you through a month of lockdown binge eating. Behind the rear seats, the BMW X6 M provides a useful 27.4 cubic feet of space, which isn't far off the 30.5 cubic feet on offer in the Audi RS Q8. If more space is required, the X6 M's 40/20/40 split-folding rear seats flip down to open up a further 32.2 cubic feet. One drawback of the car's attractive roofline is that taller items will have a hard time fitting in the trunk.

Small-item storage is decent: there are front and rear door pockets, a lockable glovebox up front, as well as a front center console storage bin, front and rear cupholders, and a fold-up rear-seat armrest with a built-in console.

2023 X6 M Infotainment and Features

Features

Each and every BMW X6 M sold in the USA comes loaded with an impressive amount of standard features, and the interior is where most of the magic happens. The heated front seats feature 18-way power adjustability, including four-way lumbar support and a memory system, and four-zone automatic climate control keeps things temperate. The steering column is power-adjustable, and there's keyless entry with push-button start and a power tailgate. The sports steering wheel and front armrest are heated, and there's a panoramic moonroof with a fully automatic two-piece glass panel to let the sun in on summer days. In terms of driver assistance features, the X6 M features a parking assistant system with a surround-view camera and active park distance control, a head-up display, lane departure warning, frontal collision warning, dynamic cruise control, and city collision mitigation.

Infotainment

The dashboard of the X6 M is dominated by a massive 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment display, which sits next to another 12.3-inch screen behind the steering wheel, both of which display crisp images. The iDrive 7.0 system in use here is one of the best in its class but will take some time getting used to by the less tech-savvy. The system can be interacted with via voice control, touchscreen, and a physical touchpad controller, which means the driver can keep his or her eyes on the road at all times. The X6 M's infotainment system features cloud-based navigation, Bluetooth streaming, dual USB ports, an AM/FM stereo, and HD Radio. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are also included, as is SiriusXM radio with a one-year all-access subscription. Sound is channeled through a 16-speaker Harman Kardon sound system, but a 20-speaker Bowers & Wilkins Diamond surround sound system is available optionally.
