BMW on Friday confirmed that it will debut a high-performance M version of the X6 crossover at the New York auto show in early April.
The German automaker said the X6 M will "utilize several new engine, drivetrain and suspension technologies."
All-wheel drive will be standard, as the X6 M is set to rival the Porsche Cayenne Turbo and the Mercedes-Benz ML63 AMG.
BMW says it will serve up the details on April 4.
