自2009年诞生起，宝马M部门就将赛道基因注入了X5与X6，开启高性能SUV新时代。然而，随着新能源时代的开启，宝马加速电动化转型以及相关产品的 部署。下一代宝马M3已确认推出纯电动版本，下一代X5也将提供燃油、纯电、插混与氢能源等多种动力选择。在此形势下，宝马需要集中资源优化产品阵 容，对小众且面临法规风险的大排量燃油车投入成本重新评估，像X5 M与X6 M这类受众比较小的车型，大概率就会成为被优化的对象了。 近日，有媒体报道称，宝马高性能SUV车型X5 M、X6 M或将告别中国市场。目前，宝马X5 M雷霆版售价为144.89万元，X6 M雷霆版售价为146.89万元，均 产自宝马美国斯帕坦堡工厂。作为"性能猛兽"，它们搭载宝马4.4T V8双涡轮增压发动机与48V轻混系统，匹配8速运动型手自一体变速箱，还有M主动差速 器的xDrive四驱系统。发动机最大功率625马力，峰值扭矩750牛·米，0-100km/h加速仅需3.9秒。 当电动化浪潮席卷，这些搭载V8发动机、主打纯粹驾驶激情的燃油性能标杆，或许也将和市场渐行渐远。 ...
