From three to two. At BMW, they have decided to simplify the XM offering, which with the introduction of the 2026 model year will concentrate on just two models instead of the three models of today. The top-of-the-range XM Label is now the only one to be equipped with the V8 electrified plug-in hybrid engine with an electric range of 76 km. The other XM 50e variant is equipped with the 3,000 cc six-cylinder plug-in hybrid engine with an electric range of 80 to 86 km.
The XM Label is the most powerful M ever
.The XM Label combines high power with a state-of-the-art propulsion concept. The M Hybrid plug-in system consists of a V8 engine with a maximum output of 585 hp and an electric unit integrated in the eight-speed M Steptronic gearbox delivering up to 197 hp, for a total output of 748 hp and torque of 1,000 Nm - the most powerful BMW M series model ever. The 50e, on the other hand, confirms 476 hp and 700 Nm of torque.
Level performance for new top-of-the-range
.Acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h takes just 3.8 seconds, while the top speed is electronically limited to 250 km/h. With the optional M Driver's package, this upper limit rises to 290 km/h. With its exhilarating performance coupled with a design that is both extravagant and uncompromising, the new BMW XM Label is an absolute exclusivity in the field of luxury high-wheelers.
The new blue colour is available as an option
.The XM Label also offers customisation options that are unprecedented both inside and out. For example, a new Individual Frozen Tanzanite Blue metallic colour is available that enhances the model's unique character. The Bmw M double kidney grille can also be ordered in gloss black. Finally, a new welcome light animation makes the new XM Label particularly impressive when driving at sunset.
22 or 23 inch wheels and more exclusive interior
.Standard equipment of the XM Label includes, among other things, 22-inch M Bicolour double spoke alloy wheels that replace the previous 21-inch wheels. Larger 23-inch wheels are also available as an option. In the interior, Merino Individual Night Blue leather is offered as a further exclusive element of the car's interior. It is available as a new option that offers a particularly exclusive interior ambience.
