BMW counts on simplicity: BMW X6 gets single turbo N55


BMW seems to take into account the saying that “less in more” and they have made some changes for their 2011 BMW X6, namely they simplified the engine. They traded in the twin-turbo N54 inline-six in this sport utility for the new twin-scroll single turbo N55 mill, just like it did in the new 5 Series. This move has some advantages like a stronger acceleration and increased efficiency, while also cutting weight from the engine bay. ZF’s eight speed automatic transmission will be available for both the X6 35i and X6 50i 2011 model year.

X6 is a good-looking thirsty animal anyhow, but when it undergoes favourable changes, the result can only make us pull off our hats.
