BMW ActiveHybrid X6: what you need to know

Well-argued answers to the most asked questions about this model, based on Caralogy data and simulations.

Among the 2 E-SUV hybrid 2007–2011, the ActiveHybrid X6 ranks 0–100 km/h (5.6 s, behind the Bmw ActiveHybrid X6), Top speed (236 km/h, behind the Porsche Cayenne S Hybrid), Power-to-weight (198 hp/t, behind the Bmw ActiveHybrid X6).

Running costs depend on your profile (mileage, charging type, city/highway mix). Use the Caralogy consumption simulator for a personalised estimate.

Caralogy does not reproduce manufacturer figures: we recalculate every number through physics simulation, starting from SCx, mass and the power curve. This is why our figures at 130 km/h differ from WLTP. Full methodology on the dedicated page.
