AC Schnitzer BMW X6 M [Video]

AC Schnitzer is offering a modification package for the BMW X6 M, with the kit including new exterior & interior elements and minor technical modifications.

The Aachen-based tuning specialist is currently working on a performance upgrade which, in combination with delimiting the Vmax and a sports exhaust, will bring a further perceptible increase in the power of the BMW X6 M. And if that's not enough, you can also opt for the carbon-fiber AC Schnitzer engine styling. Even without a performance upgrade, the acoustic and visual attraction will be enhanced by the AC Schnitzer sports rear silencer with two chromed "Sports Trim" tailpipe trims in right/left combination.

Exterior garb includes a front spoiler, design elements for the front skirt, a chromed front grille, a chromed centre bar for bonnet vents, a rear roof spoiler and a rear diffuser. A really cool feature is the optional new AC Schnitzer Bonnet Top made from carbon fibre. It features a panoramic window through which the engine can be viewed. Customers can choose among the various wheel and tyre combinations featuring 20, 22 or 23-inch wheels.

The interior will receive carbon interior trim and an AC Schnitzer steering wheel spokes with the new “black Exclusiv” design. Carbon isn’t the only material that was used leaving the cover for the i-Drive system controller and the footrest and pedal set to be outfitted in aluminum. The final touch is a throwback to the 80’s with velour foot mats.





Press Release

Powerful and sporting:
The X6 M by AC Schnitzer with "Motorsport Genes"

Pure dynamism with powerful lines - unmistakeably the "motorsport gene": evident at first sight in the BMW X6 M. And the X6 M by AC Schnitzer is even more powerful and sporting.

The Aachen-based tuning specialist is currently working on a performance upgrade which, in combination with delimiting the Vmax and a sports exhaust, will bring a further perceptible increase in the power of the X6 M. And if that's not enough, you can also opt for the carbon fibre AC Schnitzer engine styling. Even without a performance upgrade, the acoustic and visual attraction will be enhanced by the AC Schnitzer sports rear silencer with two chromed "Sports Trim" tailpipe trims in right/left combination.

AC Schnitzer not only gives the BMW X6 M more power, but also a tailored race outfit of carbon. Front spoiler, rear roof spoiler, rear wing, rear diffuser and design elements for the front skirt and chromed front grille give the X6 M an impressive and muscular appearance. As an option, the carbon Bonnet Vents with chromed centre web complete the sporting look.

A real highlight is the new AC Schnitzer Bonnet Top of carbon with plexiglas panoramic window through which the engine is permanently visible.

For the X6 M - 1.98 metres wide as standard - AC Schnitzer has adapted the FALCON wheel arch extensions so that the BMW body gains an extra 40 mm width each side.

The already sporting interior ambience of the BMW X6 M has been refined further in the Aachen works. The instrument panel conversion - speedo and rev counter with AC Schnitzer logo, white dials, red pointers and red lighting - gives the X6 M a speedometer display up to 360 km/h. The carbon interior trim and the AC Schnitzer steering wheel spokes in new "black Exclusiv" design and the AC Schnitzer aluminium cover for the i-Drive system controller, aluminium footrest and pedal set, and velour foot mats, round off the interior package.

The wheelarches of the X6 M by AC Schnitzer can be filled with 20", 22" or imposing 23" AC Schnitzer wheels in Type IV BiColor, Type VII silver, black or BiColor, or the AC Schnitzer forged alloys Type V or forged racing rims Type VIII BiColor. In combination with the 275, 315, 295 or 335 tyres, it's easy for the driver in the cockpit to transfer the engine power to the track, and at the same time provide external evidence of the "motorsport gene" of the X6 M by AC Schnitzer even when stationary.Overview for Press Release No. 05/2010
