Classic 105 Radio presenter and media personality Maina Kageni is as famous for his taste for high-end machinery as he is for his breakfast show. For him, it is not just about buying a vehicle to move from point A to B. He is a car enthusiast, a connoisseur of high-end vehicles that always have the attention of the public.
The latest car in his premium garage is the 50 Million Range Rover that really got the town talking. But even before that, he bought a 2024 BMW X6 M-Sport, becoming one of the first four Kenyans to own it. His love affair with the Bavarian motors is not new, and he has never kept it a secret. His preference for German cars is vindicated by the type of cars he keeps buying now and then.

EXTERIOR DESIGN – Aggressive & Athletic
The 2024 BMW X6 M-Sport has a bold and imposing road presence. Maina Kageni is a public figure; the M-Sport perfectly complements his stature. The front fascia features slimmer LED headlights and daytime running lights. The illuminated kidney grille, which has been the standard signature of BMW, is present to show class is permanent, ooh class and classic 105 these similarities though……
The side profile still retains the muscular rear haunches and swooping roofline. This is where the X6 separates itself from the X5. The large wheel arches house 21-inch alloy wheels, which inject maximum sophistication, improving the overall appearance of the X6. The frameless doors are present, and strong character lines improve aerodynamics for better performance.
The rear features 3D LED taillights, a large diffuser, an integrated roof spoiler, and twin trapezoidal exhaust finishers that add some aggressive charm. The BMW X6 M-Sport is available in a spectrum of colors, which include Brooklyn grey, carbon black, alpine white, Marina bay blue, or Manhattan green, among many other colors.
The best part of owning a BMW and not necessarily an X6 M-Sport is that it gives you room for customization to match your preference and lifestyle. Visit SAFARI SPARES to browse premium aftermarket accessories and custom body kits you can add to your BMW.
INTERIOR ARCHITECTURE – The Digital Leap
The BMW X6 M-Sport is one of the finest, if not the best-looking, cabins in the BMW line-up. I am 100% convinced the interior is the reason why Maina Kageni resorted to this car. The cabin of the X6 is the reason why you will walk into a showroom to buy a different car in your mind, but you end up driving home the X6. Such a good conundrum.
Stepping into the cabin, you are welcomed by a high-resolution BMW curved display that hosts a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster and a 14.9-inch infotainment screen running iDrive 8.5. The serene inside the car is breathtaking. A panoramic sunroof bathes the cabin with natural light, LED ambient lighting with altering colors injects an expensive mood in the car, and a premium sound system is the biggest takeaway. Good drive, high-quality music, and no problems in life.

POWERTRAIN & PERFORMANCE- Electrified Muscle
This is the part where other cars are separated from the BMW. The 2024 BMW X6 M-Sport did not come to play. This car comes with three engine options;
- A 3.0 L turbocharged inline-6 (xDrive 40i with M Sport Package) with a power output of 375 horsepower and 540 NM of torque, clocking 5.2 seconds in a 0-100KM/H sprint.
- A 4.4 L Twin-Turbo V8 (X6 M60i) churning out 523 horsepower and 750 NM of torque, clocking 4.2 seconds in a 0-100 KM/H sprint.
- A 4.4 L Twin-Turbo High Output V8 with 48V mild hybrid (X6 M Competition) producing 617 horsepower and 750 NM of torque, clocking 3.7 seconds in a 0-100 KM/H sprint.
These powertrains are connected to an 8-speed Steptronic Sport automatic transmission. It comes with three driving modes (comfort, sport, and sport plus).
The steering ratio is light at parking speeds and becomes heavier when you are at highway speed. The adaptive M Suspension and stiff dampers strike a perfect balance between comfort and sportiness. The xDrive AWD system continuously adjusts torque distribution to maximize traction.
