BMW has reintroduced the X6 M60i to the Indian market, bringing a high-performance luxury SUV back to local consumers [1].
The return of the X6 M60i signifies BMW's strategy to target the premium segment in India by blending coupe-like styling with raw V8 power. This move addresses a specific demand for vehicles that offer both executive luxury and sports-car performance in a single chassis.
Under the hood, the vehicle features a 4.4-litre twin-turbo V8 engine [1]. This powertrain delivers a power output of 530 PS and a torque of 750 Nm [1]. To manage this output, BMW paired the engine with an eight-speed Steptronic transmission [1].
Stability and traction are handled by the BMW xDrive all-wheel-drive system [1]. This combination of drivetrain and engine allows the X6 M60i to maintain its position as a "rebel SUV" that differs from traditional utility vehicle designs [2].
Financial options for the vehicle have also been outlined. Lease deals announced in May 2026 start at prices over $1,000 per month [3]. These options provide a flexible entry point for buyers looking to acquire the luxury model without a full upfront purchase.
The X6 M60i aims to provide a blend of advanced technology and high-end materials to compete in India's growing luxury car market [2]. By re-introducing this specific model, the company is doubling down on the "Sports Activity Coupe" segment, which prioritizes aesthetics and speed over maximum cargo utility.
“BMW has reintroduced the X6 M60i to the Indian market”
The relaunch of the X6 M60i in India indicates a strong appetite for high-displacement internal combustion engines in the luxury sector, despite a global shift toward electrification. By offering competitive leasing structures, BMW is attempting to lower the barrier to entry for a vehicle that remains a niche, high-cost asset.
