For some reason most likely because the vehicle is 100 percent power operated, the manufacturer choose to place the battery where it won’t be disturbed. But first before we proceed, assuming your BMW X6 battery is dead, which is a challenging situation since the vehicle is mostly power operated. What do you do? Below is a step by step illustration to help you fix this problem.
Where is the battery? You open the hood to check the battery, surprise! surprise! it isn’t there. Well the battery is not located under the hood. It is located in the trunk section of the car.
