No where in press release, but I know BMW is moving towards TT engines on all BMW line-up. And if you look at the facelift X5 shots its clear there is a new engine. Why would BMW upgrade X6 engines when it was released just last Spring of 2008? Also, all the BMW engineers etc I have talked to have maintained since X6 release that X6 engines will always be better than X5.
Don't think X5 is getting 449hp engine, reserved forX6.
