ATLANTA BRAVES player Ronald Acuna Jr. has introduced a new handmade whip, complete with his own branding.
During his rookie season in 2018, the MLB outfielder, 24, was named National League Rookie of the Year.
He was only 21 years old when he signed a mega-contract that promises the Venezuelan $15 million this season.
And he’s put that money to good use by purchasing a brand new, limited-edition BMW X6 Competition.
Acuna Jr. must produce on the field because there is no hiding in his new wheels.

The Beamer has a bright yellow exterior and is emblazoned with Ronald’s personal logo, so fans always know who is next to them at the traffic lights.
Acuna Jr’s business partner Nick Drbal and Xample created the logo, and the new whip is currently on the streets of Atlanta.
“Ronald and I wanted to brand his logo in a unique and personal way,” Drbal told TMZ.
“The best way we envisioned this was for his own city to be able to identify who was inside, based on what was outside on the car.”
But you’ll have to be quick to spot the wheels, which are about to be relocated to the MLB’s home country of Venezuela.
Acuna Jr’s specific criteria have increased the price by a whopping $40k over what it would normally be.
In a video demonstrating the costly motor, he shows off the incredible power by revving the engine and pauses for photos with excited fans.
EXTREMELY FAST ACCELERATION
The Competition is built to be at home in every environment, whether you’re cruising the streets of Atlanta or taking it to a track day.
“The performance and dynamics of the BMW X6 Competition are based on a set of highly developed drive train and suspension technologies derived from motorsport,” BMW added.
“Whether cruising in comfort or racing on a track, outstanding precision and agility define the M driving sensation.”
The 4.4L V8 engine produces an amazing 460bhp and has a top speed of 155mph.
This propels the MLB star from a standstill to 60 mph in 3.8 seconds.
And his unique emblem is emblazoned on the inside and outside of the car.
The RA13 emblem may be found on the car’s chassis and rear, as well as on each of its headrests.
Acuna’s next appearance will be on June 1 against the Arizona Diamondbacks, with the Braves seeking to snap a two-game losing streak.
