BMW 6-series (2011): the new spy photos

Rated 4 out of 5

Georg Kacher, 30 October 2008 09:28

Has BMW become too timid? The next 6-series will follow the cautious evolution of the 7-series and our exclusive spy photos of the new 6-series Convertible prove that it's business as usual at Munich. It wasn't always going to be that way. BMW was at one point toying with seven different concepts: a four-seater coupé and cabriolet, a coupé-cabrio with ...

Rated 2.5 out of 5

Tim Pollard, 15 October 2008 21:48

Our latest round of spy photos of the new BMW Z4 finally confirm what we said back in our July 2008 scoop – that the new Z4 will gain a Meccano-style folding metal roof. Now the disguise is firmly off the next-gen two-seat roadster, it's easy to see the new CC roof instead of today's fabric roof.BMW has plainly caught ...

Had you heard that the BMW M3 CSL is being canned – in favour of faster 4x4s? BMW’s M Division is lending a hand to develop high-performance X5 and X6 models and our spies have snapped the go-faster X6 hot weather testing in the US and the hot X5 pounding the Nurburgring in Germany.

BMW X2 scoop: BMW's new baby SUV

Rated 3 out of 5

Georg Kacher/Tim Pollard (artist's impression by Larson), 05 September 2008 09:00

BMW knows how to court controversy – and this top-secret X2 is likely to offend purists as much as a long-wheelbase, limo-spec M3. The X2 revealed today in our artist's impression is BMW's riposte to Land Rover's achingly hip LRX coming in 2012: a smaller, funkier 4x4 meets coupe. The X2 project is part of the new X1 family that ...

Rated 2.5 out of 5

Tim Pollard, 26 August 2008 12:00

BMW has shelved plans to produce a lighter and sharper CSL version of the E92 M3. CAR’s artist’s impression reveals how the rawest M3 of all was scheduled to look – with an arrival date of summer 2009. The M3 CSL was supposed to have power uprated to between 450bhp and 470bhp with a corresponding drop in weight, down by ...

BMW M5 (2011): the spy photos

Rated 3.5 out of 5

Tim Pollard, 25 July 2008 10:31

CAR has just bagged spy photos of the new BMW M5 out on test in Germany with its predecessor. The next-generation hot 5-series will not use the current 5.0-litre V10, which can only survive in production until 2011 because of ever-tightening emissions regs. In its place, the new M5 will use a twin-turbo V8 tuned to produce more power than ...

Rated 2 out of 5

Tim Pollard, 10 July 2008 11:06

Strip away that natty disguise – have BMW's engineers been taking hallucinogenics? – and you'll see the best photos yet of the new BMW X1. Codenamed E84, the new crossover arrives in mid-2009 and is based on the running gear from today's E90 3-series. Although plainly a tallboy estate/hatch/SUV crossover, BMW hopes the new X1 will maintain the brand's reputation ...

BMW Z4 (2009) new CAR spy video

Rated 3 out of 5

Tim Pollard, 07 July 2008 14:25

The successor to BMW's Z4 is coming in late 2008 – ahead of a showroom launch in early 2009 – but you can see the new roadster in CAR's exclusive spy video here. For the first time, the new Z4 will ditch a soft-top, preferring a coupe-cabriolet folding hard top. Insiders say this means there won't be a separate Z4 ...

BMW X6 hybrid (2009) spy photos

Rated 3.5 out of 5

Ben Pulman, 04 July 2008 00:00

BMW is preparing the antidote to SUV-haters everywhere. Our car spies have snapped hybrid versions of the X6 testing in the USA with a new bonnet that marks out this ‘green’ car. Due in 2009, the BMW shares technology jointly developed with Mercedes, GM and Chrysler. Right, so this BMW X6 hybrid will be green? Green-er. While BMW got a ...

Rated 3.5 out of 5

Tim Pollard, 02 July 2008 09:24

These are the best spy photos yet inside the 2009 BMW Z4 – revealing the new-look cabin that will grace next year's new roadster and confirming it will have a folding hard top. Although there is still a small amount of disguise clipped to the dashboard, most of the switchgear and layout is clear to see. And just look at ...
