BMW XM Base – 07/2023

Exterior:
The 2023 BMW XM Base presents a bold and unmistakable design, blending luxury and performance with a distinctive character. The front features a large illuminated kidney grille, slim adaptive LED headlights, and sculpted air intakes. Muscular lines flow along the sides, complemented by a sloping roofline and stacked quad exhaust outlets at the rear. Sitting on 23-inch alloy wheels, the XM exudes a commanding presence as BMW M’s flagship electrified SUV.

Performance and Efficiency:
The XM is powered by a 4.4-liter twin-turbocharged V8 engine combined with an electric motor, delivering a total system output of 653 PS (480 kW) and 800 Nm of torque. The petrol engine alone produces 489 PS (360 kW) at 6000 rpm. Power is sent through an 8-speed M Steptronic transmission and the M xDrive all-wheel-drive system. Acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h takes just 4.3 seconds. A 25.7 kWh lithium-ion battery enables up to 88 km of electric-only driving (WLTP), making it a true plug-in hybrid SUV with strong efficiency and performance balance.

Interior and Features:
The cabin offers a blend of luxury and avant-garde styling, with premium materials including Merino leather and Alcantara, a sculpted roof with ambient lighting, and a curved BMW display. The 14.9-inch touchscreen and 12.3-inch digital cluster run the latest iDrive 8 interface. Key features include Bowers & Wilkins Diamond Surround Sound, heated and ventilated seats, 4-zone climate control, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and a panoramic glass roof. The electric tailgate ensures convenient cargo access.

Technology and Safety:
This base-grade BMW XM includes advanced systems such as adaptive cruise control, lane keeping assist, blind spot monitoring, and autonomous emergency braking. A rear camera, 360-degree surround view system, and automatic parking assist provide superior visibility and driver support. With the XM, BMW introduces cutting-edge electrified performance in a full-size luxury SUV with flagship-level technology and exclusivity.
