Verdict

The BMW X6 G06 LCI costs RM23,050 more at RM735,800, and that buys mild-hybrid assistance via a 12 hp, 200 Nm motor, a marginally quicker 5.4-second 0-100 km/h time, seven airbags and 22-inch wheels. Its 335 hp and 450 Nm 3.0-litre inline-six are unchanged, however, while kerb weight rises by 110 kg. The outgoing BMW X6 G06 remains the sharper equipment choice for long motorway work: it has adaptive cruise control with steering assist and stop-and-go, plus rear-seat entertainment. Check which features matter before paying for the facelift.

G06

Pick the BMW X6 G06 if adaptive cruise control with steering assist, stop-and-go capability and twin 10.2-inch rear screens matter more than mild-hybrid hardware.

G06 LCI

Pick the BMW X6 G06 LCI if you want the 12 hp mild-hybrid motor, seven airbags, 22-inch wheels and the 14.9-inch curved display.
