BMW News - World Debut of the new BMW M6.

Launching the new M6, BMW M GmbH is presenting the most sporting and dynamic rendition of the 6 Series Luxury Coupé. This makes the BMW M6 Coupé not only one of the most beautiful cars in the world, but also the most sophisticated and powerful 6 Series the world has ever seen: five litres capacity, 10 cylinders, 507 hp (373 kW) maximum output, 520 Newton-metres (383 lb-ft) peak torque and engine speed beyond the 8,000-rpm limit.

Together with the excellent chassis and suspension designed without compromises for ultimate performance, this power unit boosts the BMW M6 right up to the highest ranks of supersports performance. But unlike its competitors in most cases offering only two seats, the M6 comes with all the space and comfort of a typical 2+2-seater as well as the luxurious features of a top-of-the-range BMW.

The principle for success: sheer power in a discreet body:

The M6 Coupé shares its outstanding power unit with the BMW M5 Sports Saloon acknowledged as the absolute benchmark in the high-performance saloon market.

Offering the same standard of supreme performance, the M6 now sets the benchmark in the segment of high-power 2+2-seater luxury sports cars, the engineers at BMW M concentrating not only at the sheer power of the engine, but also on the weight of the body reduced to a minimum in the interest of even more dynamic performance and handling. As a result, the M6 is simply ideal also for the race track in terms of its dynamic performance, while in terms of motoring comfort, features and equipment it is equally ideal for virtually all roads the world over. And not least the elegant design of this very special BMW Coupé, featuring only discreet changes to the body, bears out all the understatement so characteristic of all M models as their fundamental feature.

The customer benefits from the virtually inexhaustible power and performance of the ten-cylinder high-speed engine also through its interaction with the seven-speed SMG gearbox, the outstanding chassis and suspension, the elegant body in innovative lightweight technology, as well as the wide range of luxurious features all adding up to provide a new dimension in sports motoring.
