Thinking of buying the 2020 BMW X6?
CarmaCars rents cars; this page helps you judge the 2020 BMW X6 before you buy one elsewhere. The 2020 BMW X6 for buyers: what the numbers say, what to check, how to try it.
What to check on the X6
Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. NHTSA lists 10 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed.
Under the hood
The powertrain to know here is the 3.0L 6-cylinder turbo, with rear-wheel drive. The turbo gives a small engine the pull of a bigger one when you need it. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.
The EPA rates it at 10.4 L/100 km combined, so a 300 km weekend uses about 31 litres. At our price setting, it costs about $18.20 to drive 100 km. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$3,550 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.
Good uses for the X6
It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month. Families, skiers and anyone with bulky luggage.
Room inside
Being a full-size SUV, it handles luggage, strollers and sports gear well. At 4.95 m long, it is on the long side. Check the size of a tight parking spot.
Drive it on your own roads
If the X6 is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge. Rent the X6 for a week and see how it fits your life. Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car.
Narrowing it down
Within the 2020 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which. Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it.
Running costs
A 1,000 km month costs roughly $182 at our price setting. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. The EPA estimates US$3,550 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices.
When you know your dates
Send a request to rent the model you are thinking of buying.
Rent it for a week before you buy
