The owners of the BMW X6 (E71) note that the German brand does not have that legendary reliability, since it produces serially outside of Germany. How there are no outstanding opportunities for off-road, like real SUVs. If the car practically does not have competitors in the city "jungle", then where the roads are worse, "German", frankly, leaves. Crossover extreme roads in maintenance.

The BMW X6 E71 was first presented as a concept on IAA in 2007 in Frankfurt. The concept car liked to specialists and potential consumers and already in May 2008, the serial issue and car sales began.

In a full-wheel drive car, XDrive is added in the model name, for example - xDrive50i, instead of 5.0i, as it was on the early versions of the crossover X series. The new configuration of the coupe-like body prompted to give a new name for a new type of car, SAV abbreviation (Sports Activity Vehicle) was born, which is used to designate an SUV (crossover) with a profiled body, exactly the same as in the coupe and thanks to the special form of the body , X6 practically did not have competitors.

Owner review

I bought myself the simplest BMW X6 2012 in the line - xDrive35i. Impressions are not the best, because I expected more. He was in the car dealership, could not resist this brilliant handsome. The manager poured one dignity into my head, and I, waving my ears, absorbed them with my wife. Reviews did not look much, and only positive came across. Kaliningrad assembly did not bother. Immediately toned, put discs on 20 and forth, catching special views of passersby.

But the gray weekdays came, the same as the color of the body of my car. From the first days I started annoying forcibly installed satellite security system. Despite the replacement of the block, I had to apply to turn off at all. Write and hijaculate with it. After 7000 km of St. Petersburg roads, suddenly began to endure paint from the back arch. And this is in the car for almost 3 lies! After applying to the dealer, I was in a state of confusion - "Problem" places BMW. X6 E71 photographed and pledged to send a claim to the factory! After several days, a response came, where the case did not recognize the warranty, as the car was used in harsh conditions. I wonder how they determined it? And this is not a Chinese car. I had to pay, but already on the side.

After 22,000 km, a periodic knock appeared in the box. The service said that everything is fine. But that's not all! The peak of my irritation this car happened recently. I decided to communicate the abroad on the route Finland-Germany-Poland. And now on one of the ideal German roads, he stopped starting. He called Peter dealer, but he could not help as always, did not even organize the tow truck. As a result, we contacted the representation of the brand via the Internet and quickly arrived at me. Verdict - something happened with fuses. As a result, the car had to leave and fly by plane, and the car received after 3 weeks with an invoice for transportation. Well, at least guarantees repaired. After reading about the BMW X6 2012 reviews, also found this disease, now I'm not going to ride far away.

I am sad, here is the domestic assembly of a certified center (((

Owner review

Equipment, how much went. So wanted with an adaptive suspension, which herself adapts to the road, but without it. There are no closers for doors (non-profit somehow), the steering wheel is not active. But these persons, as they say, are often broken. But without this, the car is wonderful.

Discs are 20, the color of the car is black. From the first days I felt like it was rushing, and it is impressive - in one breath to 150 km / h. Some about BMW X6 E71 reviews testify to sunbathing with a sharp acceleration of checks, but so far there is no one on my car. In the cabin really everything for people. Materials at a decent level. The car is smart, warn, even when the wash will end. Probe he is not, because it costs electronic sensor. Subject to the key in your pocket, pull your hand to the door, and the locks open.

On the highway eats 11-12 l 98th. With a calm city ride 15 liters, and if you drive, then 18 liters. Sensors of rain and light - how did I live without them? Adaptive turns of turns are bad. Lopes are large, with remembering the position, like sports seats, who respond to each ignition key. Rear hand-pass, and the right mirror is lowered. Opening / closing the trunk with the console. The trunk at the BMW X6 2008 is spacious and comfortable. Brakes reliable, even compare nothing.

Butter eats this motor 300 gr. 8000 km. Clearance upset, because he is low. When boarding passengers and loading the trunk, the system retains the remove of the rear axle. Hydraulic handbrake - just a button. There is a fountain party that is convenient on traffic lights. Shumka is such that at 150 quietly with a passenger talking. The speed on it is imperceptible, from what both violations.

You can talk long. I will not detain, thank for your attention!

Output

It seems that the Germans are sitting on the salary's own "Wang". BMW X6 E71 was born during the economic crisis.
It has been spent on its creation and it was absolutely not clear for whom a luxurious model is created with stunning external data and high performance, but far from practicality and at a price superior to most competitors.
It was worth it. The way they love, follow and meet with views, full admiration and how they buy BMW X6 suggests that the crisis and a high price tag is not a hindrance for a decent product.

When, for the first time in 2007, the BMW X6 SUV (E71) appeared on the market, the entire auto industry lost as much as the gift of speech. Most car enthusiasts Machine design (in those years), in combination with his unusual body, did not like it. For this very reason, BMW in those years received a lot of critical reviews for a new extraordinary car model. But contrary to all expert forecasts, this crossover of the X6 series has become popular in the entire automotive world. Ultimately, at the moment of time, there is an increased demand for this car around the world, and even the used models of the car. Here about this X6-th series of cars today and try to talk with your reader. Let's find out how much this bmw car-crossover in the Body E71, as well as whether it is worth it (x6) in the second-hand state.

In the history of the entire automotive industry, the company "BMW" traditionally demonstrates the market from time to time its courage, presents bold and extraordinary solutions in the technology of creating machines, which, despite many forecasts, literally turn over the entire world car market. For example, it is enough to remember the appearance after the Great Patriotic War Eight-cylinder units (engines) from the company "BMW", two-door auto-sedans, as well as the recent appearance on the market electric cars The body of which is made of carbon fiber) to understand that the Bavarian car firm can in the literal sense from scratch to invent and develop new ideas and instantly occupy anyone who is not yet occupied by a niche in the automotive world.

This is the most happened to the BMW X6 car-crossover in the E71 body, where the company's engineers were used and implemented the most bold auto-solutions. Thus, in 2007, Bavarians presented to the world new crossover In the body that combined the four-door hatchback and coupe, and at the same time he also had a large rear trunk lid.

The X6 model was founded and was established on the basis of the X5 car crossover in the Body of E70, which also began to be produced in the same 2007.

It is worth noting here to note the following when the X6 model went into mass production "BMW" had quite high investment risks at that moment, since I didn't know how the public itself would react to this car, since this SUV (E71) opened Sutie new Class Machines on all global car market.

So the management of the Munich company must pay due, for their courage and for self-confidence that were necessary when making a decision on the launch of a new class of cars.

Thus, ultimately, since 2007, a new class of sports crossovers with four-door bodies appeared on the global car market. For a long time, the Bavarians had no competitors and they had all the cream car market. But over time, competing models have gradually began to appear on the car market. True, the lattes could not take away the market share from the company "BMW" and move it.

But recently, the company known in the world "Mercedes-Benz for a long time visiblely waiting and studied the success of the car model X6 decided in fact, copy this very type of crossovers and release their new one.

How competition will develop in this segment further will show time. But regardless of the results of this battle, the company "BMW" certainly already fisted itself (the company's name) in the history of the entire automotive industry, as the discoverer of the new segment of premium sports crossovers.

BMW X6: Pluses of the crossover in the body of a fastback coupe.

Obviously, the BMW X6 car has been created at all for those tasks for whom the auto-crossover model X5 was invented. Although the X6 model was based on the X5 crossover. It has the same load capacity, the same clearance (traffic lumen in 220mm), the same active system of full drive, well, etc. etc.

The main differences of the car are inside the cabin on the back row of the seats. A special difference (difference) between X5 and X6 models was noticeable in cars manufactured from 2008 to 2010. So, during this period of time, all cars of the X6 model (in their posterior part) had only two separate passenger seats, the triple chair in the car-crossover (as in the X5 model) began to establish only since 2011. That is, until 2011, this was (considered) a quadruple car.

Nevertheless, despite the fact that the restyling model X6 has become a five-seater, the place for the rear passengers compared to the X5 model, it has not so much, which certainly affects the comfort of the rear passengers. The point is all in the lowering roof x6, which smoothly descends (goes) on the lid of the car trunk. As a result, it turns out that too high passengers put on the back seat of the car simply not worth it, because they will be extremely inconvenient in the car.

But the main minus body of the auto model X6 is not that his rear passengers do not feel very comfortable during the trip, chief flaw X6 in visibility of this car. Unlike the X5 model, where the visibility behind the wheel becoming less than normal, in the car model X6 driver during parking machine will already be extremely uncomfortable due to such a body shape and due to a very small rear window.

It is for this very reason in a car-crossover X6, unlike the X5 model, even in basic configuration Packronics are installed that help the driver visibility when moving by reverse. Also, as an option, the X6 model is also equipped with a rear view camera that displays the back video overview for the information and entertainment system. Unlike sound parking sensors, such a video review on the screen of the central console has become somewhere more convenient.

Liberated whether used BMW X6 (including with a large mileage).

Despite the incomprehensible and various reviews on the Internet coming from drivers, apparently never owned BMW brand cars, it is still necessary to recognize that the car-crossover X6 is quite reliable and quality for its class of cars. And by and large if you take in general, then this is the same car BMW Models x5. We studied various reviews on BMW forums and interviewed a lot of "servicemen" with a certain goal, learn from them, which model (year of release) of the X6 brand is the most unpretentious in the process of its service.

As a result, we found out that the most trouble-free cars are diesel models of cars (XDrive 30D, XDRve 40D).

As regards petrol engines Machines installed on these models, then many auto repairors have complaints in Russia. According to some data, most of the owners of gasoline cars X6 after 100 - 200 thousand km, the engine begins with a mad to eat oil, and this occurs due to partial wear of the internal components of power units. As experts are said to the wines of the whole design features of gasoline engines "BMW", poor-quality engine oil, poor quality and too large interval between scheduled maintenance (technical inspections).

Recall that the planned maintenance of BMW cars passes without achieving a strictly defined run, but only after the car's computer indicates the need to contact the service. As a result, it happens when the owners of Bavarian cars appear on running more than 15 thousand km., Which is not the best effect on the state of the power unit, which does not like the oil starvation and the loss of its chemical properties.

Of course, from time to time on various channels and on the BMW forums, angry reviews about the torn chains of timing, about extinct turbines, etc. appear. Brokes But believe us, the number of similar real reviews is not so great in relation to the number of cars sold in Russia models x5 and x6. According to some available data (anonymous survey official dealers BMW in Russia) Only about 3% of all BMW X5 and X6 car owners have encountered problems that concerned the engine on mileage to 120 thousand km. True, when the car runs from 120 to 200 thousand km of such owners has already been almost 7% of all serviced crossovers at car stations.

Despite the presence of some constructive features engines BMW.that with an inattentive attitude to the motor can be poured into significant serious problems and expensive repair, on the roads of Russia today you can meet a lot of cars models x5 and x6 (E70, E71) with runs exceeding 180 thousand km and more, which still do not have At least some slightest signs of a malfunction in the engine.

So saying that the engines installed on BMW are very unreliable, it is impossible and it is wrong. After reading the forum on any brand or model of the machine Reviews, you can see and find in them exactly the same number of angry reviews about the unreliability of this product. For some cars you can see much more percentage of problems with force aggregatesthan that of the same Bavarian car machine.

The quality and reliability of the suspension BMW X6 (E71).

Unlike engines installed on X6 models, rarely having greater and small problems, to the very same quality and reliability of the chassis of this SUV, there are certain issues.

The most common problems in this car, about which they write on many autoforas, or about which the vehicle speak directly on official BMW dealerships is: - the bad durability of the front suspension and a fairly frequent factory marriage in some parts of the car.

According to statistics about 15% of all X6 owners faced problems front stabilizer, Steering thrust and even with an axis worn. And it can happen (happen) already on mileage up to 70 thousand km.

Usually these and similar problems when buying a new car are found mainly during warranty period Mounted automaker and they are usually eliminated.

Unfortunately, because of some features of the machine design, if you buy a used X6 X6 long-shot warranty, you must be prepared for what you can face the data described in the front of the machine suspension.

Also, due to the increased load in the front suspension (especially if driving x6, you will constantly drive on high engine speeds and flutter turns at high speed) This load on the front levers will quite often disable the cabinets and ball lugs of the machine.

This is your payroll for stunning steering and good comfort driving a car x6. And please do not forget that this car in its principle is not created for comfort and in order to ride (compete) with someone on the road.

Always remember that the BMW X6 car itself will constantly provoke you to add speed. This machine will not allow you to ride it calmly and nele. Naturally, from here, with active movement, prepare more often changing the rubber that will be in the round sum.

Another minus this car (X6) - the cost of the CASCO policy itself, where the price develops not only from a certain percentage of the market value of the machine. Usually, such insurance of the BMW X6 car is not cheap, but it is primarily connected with the fact that this car crossover in the hijackers themselves uses good demand.

Who more often buys used BMW X6.

The BMW H5 owners are mostly the most faithful and decent fans of the brand "BMW" for which, in principle, no other car brands. More than half of the car owners who acquired new or used cars of the BMW X6 brand, have previously been the owners of other cars of this Bavarian brand. Also about 2/3 of all these bMW owners In the future, they will still remain the faithful Lanned German brand.

And yet, half of those who currently own the first generations of cars of the brand X6, are interested in buying in the subsequent and second generation of BMW X6 cars. Another half of its owners (X6) is looking at the acquisition in the future already cheaper (used) options, models of X4 models or model crossover.

Yes, there is also the remaining very small part of the BMW x6 owners who, for some kind of reasons in the future, it will simply refuse the BMW car brand and acquire products of the company "Porsche" (for example, Macan and Cayenne auto-brands) or Mercedes firms (for example, marks, or). But this, as a rule, those owners who have previously acquired new Cars X6 and during their possession revised their views at the car market.

But still most owners of BMW X6 cars in some kind of magical and unknown way will remain loyal to the "BMW" car truck and mostly will continue to change their crossovers on the same car brand, but in the more recent version.

Outcome.

If you still seriously consider the BMW X6, then be prepared for frequent car maintenance, which will cost you in a large amount. Still, this car is a premium SUV and its (maintenance) and the cost of spare parts can not cost cheaply.

BMW X6 Like most premium models of the Bavarian brand, high-tech complex vehicles, they constantly need careful attitude towards all components of the machine.

Be prepared to invest in your motor vehicle Considerable money so that it (your crossover) is always in excellent condition and never failed you. Otherwise, this car (BMW X6) will only be upset.

It's important to know:

Also forget about the replacement of oil on mileage at 10 - 15 thousand km. Oil will have to change almost every 7 - 8 thousand km, because its quality in our country leaves today to desire the best. And do not forget that in Russia today in principle, no quality fuelwhich could be compared with European fuel. And all this ultimately beats significantly by the state of engines installed on BMW cars. So need to remember, a frequent oil change is the key to the fact that the engine of your car will be more than 200 thousand km.

The cost of ownership of Used BMW X6.

We have counted in the editorial office, how much the possession of this machine will cost for 3 years, if you purchase a 5-year-old car on a used car market.

Immediately we want to note if you buy a diesel model of the car, then in fact, due to a small fuel consumption, a diesel engine will not save alas. The point is here in which cars X6 with diesel engines It is much more expensive than its gasoline "fellow" (analogues). Ultimately, to recoup overpays for cars when purchasing it (used car), it will take 3 or 4 years (this is a slight run every year). Also, we draw your attention to the cost of planned maintenance The car especially in certain cases is much more expensive than the same gasoline models X6.

So it is possible to confuse, in its essence diesel bMW crossovers give you some imaginary savings for a while, but in the process of their operation, the owner of this diesel car will sooner or later understand that in the end, at a large period of operation of the machine, it significantly overpaid for the content of his SUV, if it compare all the costs of the same The owner of the gasoline model X6.

Let's calculate together, what is the cost of ownership of used BMW X6 bought on the Russian car market.

Take a used diesel (XDrive 30D) (E71) of the 2010 issue, with a mileage of about 135 thousand km.

Suppose that every year you will pass about an average of 20 thousand km (this is 54 km per day).

The average fuel consumption of this car model in the city according to the factory specification is 8.7 liters per 100 km of mileage, along the highway (highway) - 6.7 liters per 100 km, in mixed mode, the crossover consumes - 7.4 liters per 100 km of way. In reality, I also believe us for the word this consumption is much more, on average by 20 - 30%. Let's consider according to the factory technical characteristics, and how much it will be necessary to spend every year on diesel fuel to refuel this diesel BMW x6.

It turns out the following, in order to drive 20 thousand km (this is for 1 year) you need to be approximately 1480 liters. diesel fuel. According to today's (average) prices for gas stations, it turns out that every year you will need to spend on Diz. 54 thousand 760 rubles (on average - 150 rub / day).

But again, this calculation will only be fair for 2016. In the future, this fuel will only be expensive due to the natural high inflation in the country and naturally due to increasing excise taxes on the fuel itself.
