The bigger news is that the X6 will introduce BMW's ActiveHybrid technology ... available in 2009. From their press release:
Technology:
? The driving experience in BMW Concept X6 ActiveHybrid corresponds to the character of a typical BMW based on supreme dynamism and performance on the road. The car responds directly, spontaneously and with outstanding precision to the driver?s commands, offering the driver perfect feedback at all times through touch effects and acoustic signals, like on a car with a conventional combustion engine.
? BMW ActiveHybrid is a particular highlight of BMW EfficientDynamics, BMW?s trendsetting development strategy for today?s world. Introducing this technology, BMW is taking the next step in the ongoing reduction of fuel consumption and emissions. BMW ActiveHybrid is based on a modular concept following the strategy of ?Best of Hybrid? to integrate the most appropriate, optimum components in each case in different concepts.
? Interacting with the two-mode active transmission, the concept, through electrical support, offers two operating modes, one for setting off and driving at low speeds, one for higher speeds. This ensures optimum use of the torque generated as a function of driving conditions.
? The innovative two-mode active transmission allows variable power transmission via the power split incorporating planetary gearsets. In addition, the active transmission incorporates an electric drive system and enables the vehicle to drive at fixed transmission ratios within one system. This combines the driving dynamics and efficiency of the combustion engine and the electric drive system in an innovative, intelligent manner.

Looks good, but what is the purpose of a 4-pass SUV, ahem, SAC?

My Ride: 2010 M5 alpine white, black full leather, etc.
I participated in a marketing survey for this model and it looks like crap. The interior layout was horrendous as well. BMW should not add to its line-up, like MB, merely to repackage its x platform on a slightly different body.
