The 644bhp XM is BMW's most powerful model ever, but it also offers the weakest driving experience of the current M range -
, the XM’s engine generates 482bhp on its own. With the electric drive system lending a hand, total power and torque outputs are 644bhp and 590lb ft. An XM Label Red edition follows in autumn 2023, which will be the most powerful BMW road car ever with a pleasingly symmetrical 738bhp and 738lb ft. Weight distribution in the XM is symmetrical too, close to 50:50 front to rear.
Fast, then? The XM shifts, as you’d expect, but with 2.7 tonnes to haul around, it doesn't feel as eye-wideningly rapid as the power and torque figures might suggest. ‘It’s good to use this system, not only for stability but also the turning circle,’ M’s head of engineering Hacker told us, adding: ‘But I don’t want to feel rear-wheel steering [in operation]. I want to have a very authentic steering behaviour, and for me it’s independent of what the technology behind it is – I wanted it to be quite subtle here.’
