2023 BMW XM Label Red gets more power

Just a few months after production got underway of the new BMW XM, BMW M GmbH presents the flagship version of its first-ever high-performance car with an electrified drive system. The BMW XM Label Red brings together an M HYBRID system with extra power and bespoke design accents that showcase its standout performance attributes.

With a system output of 748 hp (generated by the combination of a V8 combustion engine with up to 585 hp and an electric motor integrated into the 8-speed M Steptronic transmission producing up to 197 hp), the BMW XM Label Red is the most powerful BMW M model ever made. It also tops the power rankings in the Sports Activity Vehicle and Sports Activity Coupé segments.

The BMW XM Label Red will celebrate its world premiere at the Auto Shanghai international motor show in April 2023. China is one of the most important sales regions for the BMW XM Label Red, alongside the USA and the Middle East. It can be ordered from dealers from 28 April 2023.

V8 engine with cutting-edge M TwinPower Turbo technology and high-revving character.

In the BMW XM Label Red, the V8 makes an even greater contribution to the system output generated in tandem with the electric motor. It produces its maximum output of 585 hp at 5,600 rpm. Peak torque is 750 Nm and is on tap across an extremely wide rev band from 1,800 to 5,400 rpm.

With two electronically controlled and continuously adjustable flaps, the sports exhaust system of the BMW XM Label Red provides a nice soundtrack for XM Label Red. It gets instantaneous power delivery thanks to the electric motor with an innovative pre-gearing stage.

High-voltage battery and Combined Charging Unit.

The motor draws its energy from a high-voltage lithium-ion battery integrated into the underbody area, which is a product of fifth-generation BMW eDrive technology. It has a usable energy content of 25.7 kWh. Together with the electric motor’s efficiency and the system of energy management, this enables an electric range of 75 – 83 kilometres in the WLTP cycle. The top speed achievable in pure electric mode is 140 kph.  The Combined Charging Unit of the M HYBRID system enables AC charging at up to 7.4 kW. This means the high-voltage battery can be replenished from zero to 100 per cent charge in 4.25 hours.
