I think you are confusing the x6 with the Raum Funktionales Fahrzeug. The X6 is designed to compete with the Range Rover Sport. It will be a four/five seater with less room than the X5 but build off the same chassis and components - it is designed to be sportier, will look sportier and be lower to the ground, and more expensive than the X5.
The MB R class competitor (RFF) has not yet been greenlighted by the supervisory board, even though it is in advanced stages of planning. The tepid market reaction to the R class are apparently making BMW cautious about approving it.
