BMW has opened a new mini site for the upcoming X5 M and X6 M. So far we have seen both cars with disguises on the front that hide larger air intakes and side vents. Also on the rear we have seen dual exhaust pipes.

As with all teaser sites it currently does not reveal much information.

We have brought you spy shots of the upcoming BMW X5 M since last summer. This time the M version of the X5 was spotted winter testing in Sweden. So far all the models spotted have been in black, but this time the car is in blue. IF we are correct it is the BMW’s Le Mans Blue.

Camouflage is still hiding huge air intakes and side vents. On the rear we can see the quad exhaust tips.

Here are the latest spy photos of the upcoming BMW X6 M. Having seen the white X6 in person it looks almost like a toy and definitely not the best color for this SAV.

Exterior changes are identical to the X5 M. You can see the same quad exhaust tips, lightly covered side vents and larger air-intakes up front.

We have been bringing you spy shots of the X5 M prototypes since last summer, over time the cars lose more and more disguise and now seem to be almost production ready.

This time we can take a better look a the quad exhaust tips, lightly covered side vents and larger air-intakes up front. X5 M will have over 500 hp and the question still remains where will the power come from.

We saw the first prototype of the X5 M back in June. Little before Christmas BMW also revealed a video of the X5 M prototype. This time we have three pictures of the X5 M that reveal the quad exhaust tips, the (lightly covered) signature side vents and the larger air-intakes up front. It’s all part of the M-series functionality and styling.

The X5 M will follow the X6 M-version, and will likely be powered by BMW’s 500+ horsepower twin-turbocharged V8 engine.

We brought you first spy photos of the X5 M already back in June. For a while it was not sure is BMW really going to use the M badge on the SUV. Now it is clear as BMW has confirmed it and has also released first video of the X5 M.

There is no official word on the engine, but as we have reported earlier, power will very likely come from either a 5.0-liter V10 with 507 hp(found in the M5 and M6) or 4.4-liter V8 with around 400 hp found in the X6 xDrive50i.
