True to its aggressive posture, the XM’s drivetrain treats every input as a strongman approaches every lift, with a sharp inhale and a great exertion, even if it’s a light weight, or in this case, comfort mode. This is indeed becoming a well-established trait for the brand, and XM owners can expect to spend a substantial amount of time fiddling with options until they settle onto a satisfactory configuration. Along with the expected conveniences, the XM’s touchscreen is home to the SUV’s vast settings where owners can adjust the BMW’s behavior to the most minute degree. The centerpiece is the sweeping curved display screen that houses the infotainment menus as well as the driver’s digital gauge cluster within one singular component. Thanks to the current design language permeating throughout its latest models, it’s hard to argue that this is still the case, no matter how critical you may be about big, snouty grilles. BMW’s been a pillar of the German luxury set long enough for it to become the standard that young brands like Genesis point to as “stuffy” and out of fashion. Like or not, you have to give it to the brand for trying. Eschewing any subtlety, the designers of the XM pushed the angular creases to their most aggressive, highlighted with attention-grabbing trimmings of metallic gold. The XM leans hard into the sharp near-crystalline stylings, spurred on by what’s been showcased in the iX and continued with the current 7-Series sedan. No power turned out to be no problem for the brand's flagship electric vehicleīMW has taken a great deal of guff for its more out-there design choices of late, much of it focused squarely at the two ever-expanding kidney grille snouts that are signature elements of the BMW facia. Review: Surviving an Ice Storm Blackout in the BMW i7 EV No 3s, 5s or 7s here, just M - and it’s the meanest, most ferocious SUV BMW has ever made. The 2023 BMW XM is an all-new vehicle straight from the M sport division. This year, the Bavarian automaker adds yet another one into the mix, one meant to surpass all of what’s come before. Throughout it all, BMW has held on to its spot in the maelstrom by producing a litany of “sport activity vehicles” in all shapes and sizes, making sure to satisfy every potential driver’s discerning tastes. And yet, a quarter of a century later, the segment is so in demand, there’s nary an automaker in the business who doesn’t have at least one barnstorming family-hauler in its portfolio. A utility vehicle with the capabilities of a sport sedan? What a selfish fever dream.
