MANHART MHX6 700 (F96)

Although nobody suspected it at first: The BMW X6 has become a true success right from the start, even creating a previously unknown, but now firmly established vehicle class: the SUV coupé. Particularly popular among performance-hungry fans and petrolheads is the top model X6 M. We now impressively prove that the factory 625 hp and 750 Nm of the Competition variant are not the end of the line: with the new MHX6 700.

As tuning specialists we give the model, which has been given the internal designation F96 by BMW, a substantial increase in power: either with the aid of the MANHART MHtronik auxiliary control unit or an ECU remapping, the 4.4-litre biturbo V8 increases to 730 hp, while the maximum torque rises to 900 Nm. In addition, a MANHART stainless steel exhaust system with valve control is connected to the power unit, which flows into four 100-millimetre tailpipes – optionally in carbon or ceramic coating. In addition, MANHART race downpipes without catalytic converter, MANHART stainless steel OPF Delete replacement pipes and the MANHART OPF/GPF Deleter are available on request. However, all three components do not have TÜV approval and are therefore only intended for export. For customers who want an optimised brake system in view of the noticeably increased power, we also offer corresponding, individually configurable upgrades.

Visually, the MHX6 700 has also been extensively revised: For example, suspension optimisation and MANHART lowering by means of H&R springs have reduced ground clearance by 30 millimetres. MANHART Classic Line-Y-spoke rims provide the ground contact. They feature a satin black finish with coloured accents in gold, measure 11×23 inches and are fitted with 315/25 ZR23 tyres. The body itself has not only been given the typical striking decoration with the help of the MANHART decal set. In addition, a complete body kit made of fine Forged Carbon ensures a much sportier and beefier appearance: it includes a front spoiler, a radiator grille, side skirts, a two-piece rear spoiler and a diffuser. In addition, there are mirror caps, two-piece rear side louvres and side rear skirt attachments.

Last but not least, we upgraded the interior with floor mats and plenty of Forged Carbon: The eight-piece interior kit is also made of the fibre composite material, as are the steering wheel spoke trims and the gearshift paddles.
