BMW M6 Engines and Transmissions

Every BMW M6 engine here is a 5.0-litre petrol unit sending power to the rear wheels. The powertrain comes with either a robotic single-clutch transmission, as on the 5.0 DSG Coupe and Cabrio, or the 5.0 MT with a conventional manual for drivers who prefer shifting themselves.

BMW M6 Trims and Equipment

BMW M6 trim levels are organised around the technical version rather than sold as separate model names. The 5.0 DSG Cabrio, for example, carries equipment configurations listed simply as M6, so differences between cars usually come down to individual options, upholstery and comfort features rather than distinct trims.
