2024 BMW XM - Ultra Luxury Extraordinary SUV!

Thanks: Borishof 2024 BMW XM Starting at $159.995 Highs: Luxe interior, powerful plug-in-hybrid powertrain, enough electric driving range to run in-town errands. Lows: Has a face only a mother could love, busy ride, not as quick as other high-dollar performance SUVs. Verdict: The XM is nearly as quick as an M3 sports sedan but offers similar luxury as the 7-series, and that combination is what makes this SUV unique. What's New for 2024? An even more powerful Label model joins the lineup for 2024 and boasts a 738-hp variant of the XM's plug-in-hybrid powertrain. BMW says the extra power is enough to launch the XM Label to 60 mph in just 3.7 seconds, which is likely conservative since we've already proved the "regular" 644-hp XM can do that in 3.4. The Label will command a hefty premium over the base model, but pricing confirmation should arrive just before the Label hits dealers at the end of 2023. Pricing and Which One to Buy The price of the 2024 BMW XM starts at $159.995 and goes up to $185.995 depending on the trim and options. XM: $159,995 XM: Label: $185,995 The XM's starting price is high, but it does come loaded with luxury features, including leather upholstery, huge 23-inch wheels, a cool curved infotainment display, and a host of driver-assistance features. Engine, Transmission, and Performance A twin-turbocharged 4.4-liter V-8 isn't new to the BMW powertrain portfolio but in the XM it's partnered with an electric motor and a battery pack to create a whopping 644 horsepower. During our first test drive, we noted the powertrain's immediate punch and estimated that it should get the XM to 60 mph in about 3.8 seconds, but when we got it on our home turf for testing, it surprised us with a 3.4-second leap to 60 mph. That puts the XM at a disadvantage—albeit only a slight one—when compared to other performance SUVs such as the Lamborghini Urus and the Porsche Cayenne Turbo S E-Hybrid, both of which delivered zero-to-60-mph times of 3.2 seconds in our testing. The XM uses a coil-spring suspension system that's augmented by adaptive dampers and active anti-roll bars. The result isn't as compliant and composed as it would be had BMW chosen to offer an air suspension, but in the Comfort driving mode, the ride is far from punishing. When set to Sport, the XM's handling is responsive and eager which makes it good fun on a twisty road. Interior, Comfort, and Cargo Everything about the XM's cabin is high-end, including its optional vintage-look leather upholstery that was first shown on the concept car. The XM's cabin is strictly a two-row affair, and in place of a large panoramic sunroof, the XM can be had with a geometric-patterned faux-suede headliner that features fiber-optic lighting that's used to dramatic effect. An optional audio upgrade adds a Bowers & Wilkins Diamond Surround Sound System with tweeters that illuminate. Read More ? Instagram ▶ ? Tiktok ▶
