Ummmm, no. They aren't putting a 6 in it, because it's a chassis designed for transverse engines. The six doesn't fit.
Maybe you're not up to speed,
but BMW has already announced plans for a 300+ HP (turbo 4) version of the new X1.
Not that it will be a big seller either. Again, it's a very small market for a high-performance version of a car like this.
