Wilmington, DE -- (SBWIRE) -- 09/22/2011 -- The BMW X6 is a unique cross between an SUV and a coupe, offering the bold styling of a coupe with the attributes of a sport utility. Union Park BMW is proud to announce the arrival of the 2012 BMW X6 in Wilmington, Delaware. For the 2012 model year, the crossover gains an optional rear center seat, which increases the capacity from four to five.

With its distinctive styling taking nods from both its coupe and SUV predecessors, the 2012 BMW X6 combines the best of both worlds. The X6 features a dramatic sloping roof and a body shape reminiscent of a coupe, but offers the large wheels, elevated height, and all-wheel drive features of an SUV.

The X6 xDrive35i is powered by a turbocharged 3.0-liter I-6 engine that produces 300 horsepower and 300 pound-feet of torque while returning an EPA-estimated rating of 16 MPG city/23 MPG highway, making the crossover a powerful yet efficient car. The xDrive50i increases the power, with a twin-turbo 4.4-liter V8, which outputs 400 horsepower and 450 pound-feet of torque.

Inside the crossover, the style is just as unique. The 2012 X6 seats four, although an optional rear center seat design is available to bring the passenger count up to five. The seats are sportier than traditional SUVs and a cushioned center console helps protect knees during aggressive turns. The sloping roof is also evident inside the BMW, but the cargo area still manages to haul 25 cubic feet of cargo.
