BMW X6, BMW X5, Porsche Cayenne GTS

The new BMW X6 claims to remove his own BMW X5 and Porsche Cayenne GTS. We decided to check all three candidates exclusively in the sports aspect.
Of course, words such as racing track, speed, aerodynamics are not the words that are associated with real jeeps. But the new BMW X6, apparently, doesn’t give a damn about it: this car is powerful and fast. Not only did he decide to call the X5 duel, but he was also about to indicate the road to the current favorite of the public Porsche Cayenne GTS.

Both BMWs differ at first glance only visually, but the X6 has a hobby of the Biturbo V8 engine, thanks to which it easily overtakes the Porsche Cayenne GTS. Yes, indeed, in addition to the new design and a bunch of electronic bells and whistles, its main difference from the related X5 is a powerful motor with 407 horses under the hood. Apparently, it is not for nothing that he claims to be leadership among competitors.
