Well after seeing all those radical PS jobs in magazines/internet on the X6, I think it's safe to say that this will be one one the morre radical looking next gen BMWs......

...I can't wait for it to set design and driving standars for the coming years

I 'm certain it will set driving standards but i 'm still waiting from BMW a better designed car than E46 3 series.

Exclusive sneak-peek: BMW's new world

Whatcar.com can give a glimpse into BMW's brave new world, with these exclusive computer-generated images of a groundbreaking future model.

Although it hasn't made any official announcements yet, BMW is known to be working on a number of new models which will expand its family over the next few years.

This fast, five-door crossover, tipped to be called the X Sport, is central to the wave of new cars that will see the company compete in all new sectors.

It's tipped to arrive in 2008 and offer buyers a mix of coupe styling, sporty performance and the taller seating position of an off-roader. BMW has plenty of engines which could give it a decent turn of speed, including, perhaps, the 500bhp unit from the M5 and M6 models.

Other details are few and far between, but it's thought that the X Sport will use the same platform as this year's all-new X5 and deliver its power to all four wheels.

It's likely to be joined by BMW's first MPV, internally known as the Space Functional Crossover, in the same year or in 2009.

"XSport" is one of the name proposals for a Concept car that will be presented by BMW in the near future showcasing the forthcoming X6 SAC.

And this designs are a bit more representative:

Damn Eni...how do u know this stuff. By the way, the pics that you put up are by far the best design. I looked at the pics on the first page, besides hussein's I thought the others were decent but nothing interesting...this one looks pretty cool, very edgy.

From the stuff from BMW, I think this X6 will be more of a 4-door Coupe (ala CLS) than a crossover SUV.

Then why the prefix 'X'?

Maybe some elements of a SUV will be included, such as AWD and a propped-up ride height. I'm not too sure, it's just a hunch.

From the info I have you are spot on.

X6 will be more of a coupe, and less of a SUV. Remember x-Coupe? Now imagine slightly higher ground clearance, bigger wheels, and a longer body - and you'll get the idea. The styling will be different though.

The car will be labeled as SAC = sport activity coupe. Sport for performance, activity for higher ground clearance & AWD, coupe for shape.

Space will not be the issue - car will be able to carry 4 people & their personal luggage comfortably. It won't be a utility vehicle, but a sports coupe with a higher seating. Kind a all purpose coupe.

BMW sees X6 as a Porsche Panamera, Mercedes CLS, AM Rapide etc competitor. When MB & Co. are presenting bold idea - 4 or 5-door coupes, BMW are going even further: presenting 5-door all purpose activity coupe.

There have been several attempts in the history to produce such a car. Even some design studies have been showed (the last one is VW Concept A) - but the wrong brands were doing it. Such a car is a premium niche product - not something Hyundai could sell under their brand. There is enough interest for such a car, but a car should wear a premium brand and a premium price. BMW are the first premium car maker taking that risk - when they prove the product a success, others will follow. The same happened with MB CLS, BMW X3, MB ML, etc.

So it's a jumped-up coupe?

All sounds a bit gimmicky if you ask me.
