The BMW M6 Convertible is a unique performer featuring the internationally acclaimed engine of the year – the 5.0-litre V10 from the M6 Coupe – which produces an awesome 373 kW (507 bhp) and maximum torque of 520 Nm. With a suspension developed for supreme dynamics and a Sequential M Gearbox (SMG) complete with Drivelogic, this ultimate power unit turns the latest product from BMW M into an open sports car able to accelerate to 100km/h in just 4.8 seconds.

Due its driver-oriented cockpit, all essential functions are positioned either on or around the steering wheel. The iDrive controller, housed on the centre console, is positioned for access by both driver and front passenger, and can be used to activate and operate a wide range of comfort functions via the Control Display. The Control Display comes with an enhanced menu guidance which also features MDrive management. The speedometer and rev counter are housed in tube-shaped rings, the faces on the instrument dials are black, the numbers stand out clearly in white, and the indicator needles themselves come in traditional BMW M red.

On the road, this means a stopping distance of just under 36 metres from 100 km/h and less than 140 metres from 200 km/h. The two-stage brake display in the rear lights ensures extra safety and helps to prevent rear-end accidents; as soon as the driver applies the brakes hard, the illuminated area in the brake lights becomes larger than in a regular braking manoeuvre, indicating to motorists following to apply the brakes harder, too.
