At the heart of the BMW XM Label Red lies a powertrain that defies convention and raises the bar for performance. With an awe-inspiring system output of 748 horsepower, this exceptional vehicle stands as the most powerful BMW M model ever created.
This tremendous power is harnessed by a cutting-edge M HYBRID drive system, composed of a brand-new V8 engine featuring M TwinPower Turbo technology and an electric motor seamlessly integrated into the eight-speed M Steptronic transmission.
The combination of the 4.4-liter V8 engine and the 197- hp electric motor creates a synergy that delivers exhilarating acceleration and that unmistakable engine sound that is synonymous with BMW's M series.
One remarkable feature of the BMW XM Label Red's hybrid system is a pre-gearing stage patented by BMW, which amplifies the electric motor's torque to an astonishing 332 lb-ft at the transmission input.
This exceptional engineering achievement propels the vehicle from 0 to 60 mph in just 3.8 seconds. While the top speed is electronically limited to 155 mph, enthusiasts can unleash its full potential, reaching 175 mph with the optional M Driver’s Package.
The BMW XM Label Red is more than just a high-performance vehicle; it's an exclusive work of art on wheels. Limited to a production run of only 500 units worldwide, it encapsulates the essence of exclusivity.
Each unit boasts a distinctive exterior paint finish in BMW Individual Frozen Carbon Black metallic, further emphasizing its uniqueness. To make a bold statement, the vehicle features an accent band available in Toronto Red metallic or a black accent band, allowing owners to customize their cars to match their personal style.
This contrast of colors, combined with gloss accents against matte surfaces, ensures that the BMW XM Label Red commands attention wherever it goes.
