Videos: 2010 BMW X5 M and X6 M in motion

Yesterday we brought you all the official details with high quality photos of the BMW X5 M and X6 M. These “twins” both share the same twin-turbo 4.4-liter V8 that develops and impressive 555 horsepower, that takes them both from 0-60 mph in 4.5 seconds.

Now we have first videos of both cars on the road so you can hear the amazing 555 horsepower.

Spy shots: 2010 BMW X5 M in Le Mans Blue

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.

Spy shots: 2010 BMW X5 M

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.

BMW X5 M(or not) spotted by our reader in Bünde, Germany

Right before the holidays BMW released a teaser video of the X5 M. Now it almost looked like our reader Mr. Jay has spotted the X5 M in Bünde, Germany.

Thankfully he had his iPhone ready and took few shots of the front and rear. You can clearly see the twin exhaust pipes that are integrated into the rear bumper. Front looks exactly the same as on the X5 M Sport Package.

According to Jay the car had M style steering wheel and gear shifter(very likely just the same like you get with the Sport Package).

BMW X5M Twin Turbo Engine spotted?

For a while there have been rumors that BMW is working on a new X5M prototype. From pictures taken by our photographer in Germany we can not tell much, as the engine is covered, but it seems that the engine is twin-turbocharged. Most likely it is not the 3.0-liter twin turbo engine, but something larger.

We still can not confirm is this new X5 going to have M badge or not, but with pictures we surely have more information that something besides rumors is going on.
