	Funding: The HiLumi LHC Design Study is included in the HL-LHC project and is partly funded by the European Commission within the Framework Programme 7 Capacities Specific Programme, Grant Agreement 284404. SixTrack is a symplectic 6D tracking code routinely used to simulate single particle trajectories in high energy circular machines like the LHC and RHIC. The paper presents the developments recently implemented and those foreseen for extending the physics models: exact Hamiltonian, different ions and charge states, RF multipoles, non-linear fringe fields, Taylor maps, e-lenses, ion scattering. Moreover new functionalities are also added like variable number of tracked particles, time dependent strengths, GPU computations with a refactoring of the core structure. The developments will benefit studies on the LHC and SPS, for collimation efficiency, ion operations, failure scenarios and HL-LHC design.
