据英国媒体报道,新款宝马X5 M和X6 M将于今年底上市。宝马在去年5月发布了第三代X5,现在正计划推出新款X6,该车很可能会在3月的日内瓦车展发布。这两款车都将提供其M高性能版本,这两款车将于今年底上市。无论X5还是X6的M版本都将采用更具侵略性设计并将共享同一台4.4升V8双涡轮增压引擎,但其输出功率将高于目前的408千瓦/555马力和680牛米。由于新款X5的重量比老款车降低77到104公斤,因此M版也将采用类似轻量化措施,而无论X6还是X6 M也将采用相同措施。额外增加的功率和进一步降低的重量将使这两款车百公里加速时间更短,很可能低于4.7秒,而经过电子限速后的最高时速仍为250公里。
New BMW X5 M and X6 M coming late 2014
British media is reporting the new BMW X5 M and X6 M will go on sale towards the end of next year.
BMW unveiled the third generation of the X5 back in May and they are now planning to show its coupe-ified sibling, the X6, which will likely be unveiled in March at the 2014 Geneva Motor Show. Both of them are programmed to receive fully-fledged M versions and this will allegedly happen late 2014.
The cars will adopt a more aggressive design and will share the same twin-turbo 4.4-liter V8 engine but its output will likely be lifted from the current 555 HP (408 kW) and 502 lb-ft (680 Nm). Since the new X5 is between 170 lbs (77 kg) and 230 lbs (104 kg) lighter than its predecessor, some the weight savings will be found in the M version as well and will likely be seen in the X6 / X6 M.
Extra power and less weight will make them quicker in the 0-62 mph (0-100 km/h) sprint so the duo should complete the task in less than 4.7 seconds on their way to what will probably be an electronically-limited top speed of 155 mph (250 km/h).
