From time to time, BMW is launching a special edition of its popular SUVs. The latest addition to the range is available on both BMW X5 and X6 models and is called Black Vermilion.

The focus of the Black Vermilion edition is the clever design integrating red accents onto a Frozen Black exterior body colour; the BMW double kidney grille with model-specific red bars creates an effective contrast to the BMW Individual Frozen Black metallic special paint finish. On the BMW X6 Black Vermilion, this visual highlight is expressed in combination with its Iconic Glow kidney grille.

Elsewhere, the model features Orbit Grey matt, 22” M light-alloy wheels in Double Spoke designed exclusively for this edition, BMW laser lights, M Sport exhaust system (excluding X5 xDrive45e), sun-protection glass, extended high-gloss Shadow-line exterior trim, red high-gloss M Sport brake callipers and model-specific front and rear aprons.

Also included is an M Alcantara Anthracite roof liner, a crystal glass application known as Crafted Clarity, and front Comfort Seats with active seat ventilation.

BMW Individual full leather trim in Merino Black is offered as standard, and additionally enhanced by edition-specific red contrast stitching for both the driver and front passenger seats. The edging on both the front and rear floor mats is also finished in red and inside the BMW X5 Black Vermilion, the red accents are also to be found on the rear seats.
