BMW Concept XM (2021): range, design, horsepower

The grill lights up

In the BMW Concept XM, the wide kidney grille is still illuminated.

Miami Beach As part of Art Basel Miami Beach, BMW unveiled the new Concept XM study, which also offers an outlook on a future sports SUV model with electric drive and the new design of its future model range. Accordingly, the XM should indicate the front design of a model of the upper class that will appear in 2022, which is likely to be the new edition of the 7 Series.

Special features are a large radiator grille surrounded by LED light and, in contrast, very narrow headlight units. The 5-meter long SUV concept is characterized by sharp-edged character lines and very narrow rear lights.

The concept vehicle is also a concrete outlook on a series model announced for the end of 2022, which BMW intends to offer exclusively as an M vehicle and exclusively as a plug-in hybrid. In the case of the Concept XM, BMW speaks of a V8 petrol engine in combination with an electric motor. The double heart should deliver 550 kW / 750 PS and 1,000 Newton meters of torque.

The electric range of the part-time electric vehicle is specified as up to 80 kilometers. The XM will thus be BMW’s first M model with an electrified drive train. Inside, the Concept XM combines a driver-oriented cockpit with a lounge-like interior.
