The BMW X6 xDrive40d is once again used as the starting base and the 3.0 liter straight six cylinder twin-turbocharged unit doesn’t seem to be complaining.

Extra attention is always nice so it would only seem natural to get such a reaction. Lumma Design’s ideas for the rest of the car are different though.

340 horsepower and 494 lb-ft of torque is more than Senner develops but not by much. In fact, the difference is so small it’s almost certainly impossible to notice.

What is likely going to be easily noticeable is the difference in styling. Lumma Design went for aggression and a bit of an alpha male feeling.

I might sound stupid right now but the Lumma Design BMW X6 xDrive40d doesn’t have the chiseled look of an actor but the hairy chested scarred appearance of an action hero.

The new 22 inch alloy wheels aren’t very aggressive but the new body kit certainly is. And don’t even get me going on that “harmless” black decal running around most of the car.

A final considerable difference is found in the redesigned interior. This is where no added gadgets are present, no new shapes and nothing was removed either.

You do however get a much more lighted up presence from the color scheme and all of the materials were upgraded by Lumma Design.

Alcantara, fine leather, aluminium pedals and carbon fiber trim, it’s all there in the X6 diesel.

In some cases that’s true and it seems that things are getting worse. That direction seems to have spun off with tuner cars built around the same idea…

Senner Tuning have a package for the BMW X6 diesel, the xDrive40d version that seems to be in a very narrow market spot.

Here’s the outset, you want a faster version of the BMW X6 but you still want the inherent fuel economy of a diesel you can always buy the X6 M Performance.

Trouble is, that new tri-turbo seemingly too complicated engine isn’t really cheap. In fact, it’s so expensive it’s only marginally cheaper than the BMW X6M.

Senner Tuning provides a 10 percent increase in the performance of the 3.0 liter straight six cylinder engine without too much damage to the fuel economy.

Having 336 horsepower and 490 lb-ft of torque under the bonnet will certainly make a difference. Just like the new design kit will.

Essentially, Senner Tuning provides a rip-off BMW X6 M lower body kit, a couple of subtle rear spoilers and a set of awesome 22 inch multi-spoke alloys from Hamann.

Really, it’s hard to fault the package, especially when you consider only costs some 35.000 dollars. It’s definitely not cheap but it’s certainly not as expensive as the M Performance version.

Also, since most of the parts are off-the-shelf BMW ones, maintenance and repairs shouldn’t put a dent in the budget either.
