BMW X6 by Hartge

We have already seen the pictures of the X6 from a few photos that leaked earlier this week, but now we get the official ins and outs of the new tuning package for the BMW X6 by German tuning house Hartge.

The engines have benefited from a bit of ECU (Electronic Control Unit) tuning, the 3.0L Diesel from the xDrive30d gets pumped up to 275hp(+40hp) and the 3.0L Diesel TT from the xDrive35d now lies at 328hp (+42hp). Hartge have also added a couple of performance features to compliment the increased power including a set of sports springs that lowers the overall ride height by up to 30mm along with a set of pretty nifty 22'' wheels.

The exterior has been left largely untouched apart from the addition of a set of Hartge emblems for hood and boot lid along with carbon casings for the side-mirrors.
