Used 2023 BMW X6 SUV Trims Comparison

Trim level differences

The 2023 X6 comes in only two trims: the xDrive40i and the M50i (we cover the crazy X6 M separately). The xDrive40i has a turbocharged 3.0-liter six-cylinder engine that produces 335 horsepower and 332 lb-ft of torque, while the M50i packs a turbocharged 4.4-liter V8 engine that puts out 523 hp and 553 lb-ft. Both engines are backed by an eight-speed automatic transmission and all-wheel drive is standard. Feature highlights include:

Which X6 trim does Edmunds recommend?

Of the X6's two trim levels, we think the base xDrive40i is the one to get. Its six-cylinder engine produces plenty of power and it comes with a solid list of standard features out of the box. The additional performance of the M50i is appealing, but probably not what most buyers in this class are looking for.
