Exclusive, expressive, electrified: The first-ever BMW XM brings together cutting-edge drive system technology with a spectacular vehicle concept. This high-performance car dressed in Sports Activity Vehicle (SAV) clothing is fitted with a newly developed plug-in hybrid system delivering maximum output of 480 kW (653 hp). Compromise-free design and intoxicating performance generate a full-house exclusivity and elevate the BMW XM to a completely new model in the luxury segment.
5 POWERFUL FACTS:
01 First BMW M standalone model since the BMW M1
02 BMW M HYBRID drive with 480 kW (653 hp)
03 0 to 100 km/h in 4.3 seconds

05 M xDrive with M Sport differential
DRIVING DYNAMICS.
8-cylinder plug-in hybrid engine.
The 8-cylinder plug-in hybrid engine stands for pure driving pleasure, superior power delivery and the distinctive M sound. Thanks to the virtuoso interaction with a 145 kW electrical motor, the 4.4-litre V8 of the BMW XM thrusts forward unbridled – not least thanks to two turbochargers, fully variable Valvetronic valve control and high-precision injection.
Adaptive M suspension Professional.
The adaptive M suspension Professional impresses with sporty handling without compromising on comfort. The Integral Active Steering stabilises the vehicle at higher speeds and simultaneously reduces the turning radius. Active stabilisers reduce side-to-side body movements, improving driving dynamics and comfort.
M Sport differential.
The M Sport differential delivers the best possible performance for your vehicle on the road. It variably distributes the driving power between the rear wheels thus improving traction and driving stability in various situations – be it when accelerating out of bends or with differing road conditions.
UNCOMPROMISING AND UNIQUE.
Front design.
The iconic front in the style of the BMW luxury class inspires with its “Iconic Glow” illuminated kidney grille and thin daytime running lights typical of M. The distinctive grille with the BMW XM logo and exclusive Night Gold accents exudes luxury and exclusivity. The powerful sculpted bonnet merges smoothly into two power domes.
Side view.
The side view combines the strong character of the design in coupé style with powerful proportions and styling highlights such as the darkest windows of the entire BMW model range. Both the 23” light alloy wheels and the accent band that make the shaping of the new BMW XM unique create an especially exclusive effect in the accent colour Night Gold.
Rear design.
The vertical, hexagonal M twin tailpipes give the rear with gold-coloured diffuser accents and the new XM logo a unique presence. The two BMW logos lasered on either side of the rear window make reference to the last “M only” model – the BMW M1. Together with the wheel arches, the surrounding rear lights emphasise the robust, broad stance.
Illuminated headliner.
The indirectly illuminated headliner impresses with a three-dimensional prism structure. Distinctive Ambient light provides a splendid presentation of the various lighting designs such as the welcome scenario. The colour selection can be adapted to individual needs to match driving mode and atmosphere.
M Lounge.
The M Lounge offers a unique sensation of spaciousness. The one-piece seating area and details such as the diamond-shaped structures in the headrests and stitching pattern convey comfort and luxury. Together with the sculptural, indirectly illuminated headliner, dark windows and comfort cushions, they create a novel feeling of space.
Exclusive Vintage leather.
The new leather with vintage character fascinates with its natural structure and texture vintage character, setting elegant accents in the door trims and instrument panel. This material is being put to use for the very first time exclusively in the new BMW XM and the special processing and refinement methods provide unique and individual styling in every vehicle.
PLUG-IN HYBRID DRIVING EXPERIENCE.
Innovative technologies to support electric driving and charging.
- Purely electric range up to 55 miles (WLTP) and intelligent driving modes for full flexibility
- Maximum driving pleasure with supreme efficiency
- Efficient combustion engine with 489hp (360kW) and BMW eDrive power unit with 197hp (145kW)
M Hybrid.
Switch between the purely electric drive and the hybrid mode at the touch of a button with the interaction between electric motor and powerful V8 engine. At the same time, intelligent driving modes optimise the driving experience.
Up To 55 miles range.
The efficient BMW eDrive system with 653 hp (480kW) enables up to 55 miles WLTP of purely electric driving. This means you travel almost silently and free of local emissions.
BMW Charging.
Whether at home or on the road: BMW Charging offers you tailor-made charging solutions for every situation.
It enables you to charge in Europe in one of the largest and constantly expanding public charging networks. Check the charge level of your BMW and plan your journeys conveniently from your My BMW App.
Fuel consumption and CO2 emissions.
For Plug-in Hybrid vehicles these figures were obtained using a combination of battery power and fuel, for battery electric vehicles after the battery had been fully charged. Plug-in Hybrid and battery electric vehicles require mains electricity for charging. Figures shown are for comparability purposes. Only compare fuel consumption, CO2 and electric range figures with other cars tested to the same technical procedures. These figures may not reflect real life driving results, which will depend upon a number of factors including the starting charge of the battery, accessories fitted (post-registration), variations in weather, driving styles and vehicle load.
At temperatures below 0 degrees Celsius, purely electric driving mode of plug-in hybrid models will not be available until the battery has warmed up to an operational condition after the vehicle has travelled a few miles.
