ANALYSISHow safe is the 2022 BMW X6 M?
The 2022 BMW X6 M has not undergone federal crash testing; no NHTSA star ratings are available for this model year. This absence of data means no adjacent crash-test results exist within the NHTSA database to offer a structural reference. The model's safety profile is thus based solely on its recall and complaint record, which places it in the Light burden band. One recall addresses the sun and moon roof assembly. Three unverified consumer complaints have been lodged with NHTSA, citing issues with driver-assistance technology, specifically lane departure and back-over prevention systems, and service brakes. These complaints, though few, remain unverified.
