BMW X6 Coming in for German market

German tuning atelier Hartge have made their tuning program for BMW X6 SUC (Sports Utility Coupe). Vehicle now can have some visual adds and also some new technical improvements for more driving fun.

"Hartge" developed "BMW X6" aerodynamic body kit is made of lightweight polyurethane plastic, which includes the original design front bumper with wire mesh air catching holes, decorative thresholds and rear bumper with diffuser. It has carbon casings for the side-mirrors too. Sporting shape concludes a 22-inch wheels and a set of sports springs that lowers the overall ride height by up to 30mm.

Initially, technical improvements will be made available to "BMW X6" variant "xDrive35d" for the three liter biturbo diesel engine. The engine have benefited from a bit of ECU (Electronic Control Unit) tuning. Its power has increased from the stock 286 hp up to 328 hp and the maximum torque - up from 428 lb-ft to 498 lb-ft, which is already available from two thousand revolutions per minute. Add to that it gets better fuel economy than stock and is actually lighter. Later the 3.0L diesel engine from the xDrive30d will get pumped up to 275hp (+40hp) and 441 lb-ft (+115 lb-ft).

Despite the mass of 4409 pounds it makes 0-60 in 6 seconds, which is a second better than stock. Since Hartge has disabled the factory set for maximum speed electronic limiter, the improved BMW X6 diesel will be able to reach the top speed of 159 MPH.

Full program by "Hartge" will cost you 38'000$. So maybe there will be ability to reduce the 38'000$ asking price and just supply the powertrain upgrades.
