BMW X6 With Illuminated Grille Review

BMW is all set to launch its big, bold and brawny SUV called the BMW X6. It is the new third-generation of BMW and it is far ahead than its predecessor. It will impress everyone with its features, performance, build and interiors.

Style and features

It is an absolute beast the company has to offer. This specific model is wider with a longer wheelbase than its predecessor but it is a tad shorter. The front grille of the car is its highlight as it is the first-ever illuminated grille from BMW. But it is available only for X6 model right now.

Presently the illuminated-grille is offered as an extra option that you can buy to impress your friends and neighbours. You will certainly love driving the car with an illuminated-grille. It will light as you turn the headlights of your car on or you can use it for the time when locking and unlocking the vehicle.

Most good-looking car

Of all the generations BMW has to offer, this one is the most good-looking. It looks very stylish especially at the back. The tail light treatment of this car of the X6 matches with the arrangement seen on other sports models of BMW.

Engine power

In India, the BMW X6 is offered with a 3-litre, in-line 6-cylinder petrol engine. It can be argued that the engine isn’t as powerful as the V8 on the M50i but the X6 engine also produces amazing power. It is very agile and can reach up to 100 kmph in 5.5 seconds.

1,230 Migrant Workers Brought Home In A Special Train From Telangana To Jharkhand

The first special train carrying stranded migrants from Telangana to Jharkhand left the southern state at around 4:30 am. It carried a total of 1,230 people following all the social distancing norms for safety of the passengers.

The special train

It started from Lingampally in Telangana to Hatia in Jharkhand. It is a 24-coach train that can carry more passengers in normal days but the number of passengers in a coach were reduced from 72 to 54 to maintain social distancing. Also, the Telangana government kept it a low-key affair to prevent the repetition of Bandra like situation, where hundreds of migrant workers gathered at the Bandra station on getting a tip-off about train service.

Centre allowed movement of migrant workers

The move to run the special train for Jharkhand migrants came after two days of central government allowed students and migrant workers with no symptoms of COVID-19 to go back to their native places. Jharkhand CM said that every citizen of Jharkhand was valuable for him.

It started with Uttar Pradesh CM bringing migrant labourers stuck in Haryana back home. But the move irked Bihar CM that called it violation of lockdown. Jharkhand also opposed the move but later requested the centre to allow him to run a special train to bring his people back to their homes.

BJP supported the move
