2023 BMW XM Plug-In Super SUV Makes A Strong First Impression via insideevs.com
was first shown online, opinions seem to be changing. The XM is, after all, mainly aimed at the American and Chinese markets and the manufacturer reportedly received very good feedback and is expecting this model to be a success.
Why even in my native Romania where SUVs are also very popular, BMW expects to sell a few dozens of these per year. When I attended the local reveal last night, held in a very suitable location in northern Bucharest, hey announced that even on the small local market they already had 15 orders for the vehicle, which is expected to cost around €180,000 with some options.
And seeing this brash, brutish sports SUV in person, I began to understand where the appeal stems from. Firstly, though, I’d like to make it clear that I too was one of the people who criticized BMW for making a plug-in hybrid SUV as its half-century anniversary vehicle.when I say that I still don’t really find it appropriate for the M badge to be on an SUV, although the market and sales numbers would quickly contradict me.
You can’t ask for more excitement inside, though. With the blue leather on the seats, the vintage looking brown leather on the dash, the unusual illuminated headliner and the very sporty driving position, it has to be one of the coolest car interiors in the industry right now. Would I have wanted a bespoke sedan with a similar interior instead of this SUV? But sitting inside a BMW XM it does find ways to seduce you. Let us know in the comments what your thoughts are on this monster plug-in SUV.
