The Akrapovič Evolution Line (Titanium) for the 2024 BMW X5 M and X6 M LCI is a complete, meticulously engineered exhaust upgrade designed to unlock a deeper, more expressive sound profile while delivering meaningful performance gains and substantial weight reduction. Tailored specifically for the updated S68-powered LCI models, the system enhances every aspect of the vehicle’s dynamics and emotional character.

Sound

The Evolution Line transforms the S68’s muted stock tone into a rich, resonant, and more involving soundtrack. Constructed from lightweight titanium, the system incorporates dual valves housed in components cast in Akrapovič’s in-house titanium foundry for absolute precision.
The result is a fuller and more aggressive note under load, sharper acoustic reactions during shifts, and a commanding presence that remains compliant for everyday driving.
With the optional Akrapovič Sound Kit, drivers gain full manual control of the exhaust valves, allowing customizable sound profiles independent of the factory drive modes.

Performance

Engineered to optimize exhaust flow across the new V8’s rev range, the Evolution Line reduces back pressure and improves pulse timing, sharpening throttle response and enhancing mid-range torque.
The titanium construction delivers a significant weight reduction compared to the OEM system, improving handling, weight distribution, and agility in such a large performance SUV.
As with all Akrapovič Evolution systems, no ECU remapping is required, ensuring seamless integration with the factory electronics.

Design

Visually striking and technically advanced, the system features a redesigned titanium muffler layout, precision-welded piping, and a choice of titanium/carbon-fibre tailpipes that elevate the look of the LCI’s restyled rear end.
Optional exterior upgrades — including matte or gloss carbon-fibre diffusers and mirror caps — further enhance the SUV’s aggressive aesthetic and fully complement Akrapovič’s signature design language.
