Here’s the video that appears to confirm the rumours of a diesel-engined X6 M appearing when the popular Sports Activity Coupé receives a facelift next year.

Likely to wear the X6 M50d badge, power will come from the company’s tri-turbo 3.0 L inline-6 cylinder unit delivering 280 kW (381 hp) and a colossal 700 Nm (516 lb-ft) of torque. That engine will also slot into the M550d xDrive, an all-wheel drive version of the F10 M5.
