The 2019 BMW X6 offers a generous range of standard features, along with punchy engine options and agile handling. It does have a close competition in the 2019 Volvo XC90 in terms of safety features and interiors, but XC90 fails to deliver an optimum performance.
Design & Style
The 2019 XC90 has been defaulted to a 7-seater configuration, with the first two rows being spacious and comfortable. It is better to use the third row as cargo space. You can also go for the 4-seat model, with all the seats featuring massaging, ventilation and heating functions. The interior is impressive with high-quality materials, and most of the surfaces are covered in real wood trim and leather pieces.
The 2019 BMW X6 comes standard with 14-way power adjustable front seats and Dakota leather upholstery. Nappa Leather and 20-way power adjustable front seats are optional. You get ample comfort and support in both the rows. Even taller folks can have a great time enjoying the ride, with great visibility on offer. You also have sufficient cargo space to fit in your shopping bags.
Technology & Safety
The 2019 BMW XC90 comes standard with a tablet-like infotainment system sitting vertically on the dash. You can control most of the functions through touch screen, although there are physical buttons and knobs as well. The Sensus system is responsive, but you need to use it a few times to understand. Other key features include Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, navigation and satellite radio. Standard safety features include lane keep assist, lane departure warning, blind spot monitoring, adaptive cruise control, rearview camera and driver attention monitoring.
The 2019 BMW X6 comes standard with iDrive infotainment system, 10.2-inch screen, a USB port, Apple CarPlay, touch pad controller, Bluetooth, HD radio and navigation. There are plenty of ways to control the settings in X6; you can either use the physical buttons and knobs, touchpad controller or touch screen. The high-quality graphics make it easy to read the menus. Standard safety features include automatic emergency braking, rearview camera, pedestrian detection, blind spot monitoring, parking sensors and adaptive cruise control.
Performance
The 2019 Volvo XC90 comes standard with a 2-liter turbo-four engine that offers a maximum output of 250 HP. This is certainly not an impressive number, and it does reflect on the acceleration as well. If you are looking for a car with solid handling and spirited performance, the BMW X6 powered by a 300 HP turbo-six engine is a better choice.
The Bottom Line
The 2019 BMW X6 is unmatched in terms of interior quality and juicy engine options. Good fuel economy is an icing on the cake. The user-friendly technology features are some of the best you will find in this class.
