Malaysians will soon be able to order the most powerful car to wear the BMW M badge. The BMW XM is a plug-in hybrid with a 4.4L twin-turbocharged V8 engine that can sprint from 0-100 in 4.3 seconds.
M badge. The XM marks a number of firsts for Munich’s performance sub-brand—its first dedicated model since the seminal M1 supercar and its first car to feature a plug-in hybrid powertrain. You are going to pay through your nose for that privilege, however, and you’ll also have to deal with the love-it-or-hate-it looks.The BMW XM will be available in a single variant, priced at an estimated.
So equipped, the XM is able to sprint from zero to 100km/h in 4.3 seconds on its way to a top speed of 270km/h, thanks to the M Driver’s Package fitted as standard in Malaysia. An even more powerful XM Label Red will also be offered globally, adding a more powerful 577hp/750Nm engine to push total outputs to 738hp and a whopping 1,000Nm. This model, however, will only be introduced next year.
The XM can also drive on electric power alone—the 25.7kWh lithium-ion battery provides a range of 88km on a single charge. Unfortunately, the car does not support DC fast charging; instead, a 7.4kW AC wallbox charger will fill the battery from zero to 100% in 4.25 hours.As a big, high-performance SUV, the XM draws obvious comparisons with the X5 and X6 M, but it looks like neither both on the outside and inside.
Moving to the rear, the XM comes with slim L-shaped taillights and a chunky rear bumper that houses distinctive vertical quad tailpipes. The roof dips noticeably towards the rear, leading to the back windscreen that houses laser-etched BMW roundels on the top corners—a nod to the aforementioned M1. Available colours for Malaysia include Cape York Green, Carbon Black, Marina Bay Blue, Toronto Red, Mineral White, Black Sapphire and Dravit Grey.
