  • BMW’s high performance M-Division has made their first M only Hybrid model, the XM. Is it an SUV? Is it a wagon? A family fun car? A luxury experience? It wants to be all of them. We take it for a test drive to see how much of an “everything” the XM can really be. Join us for a Test Drive!

    The fancy bag tether is to restrain the heavy bag from hitting a passenger in a panic stop or accident. My dad was a coroner, he had stories of people done in by a screwdriver or a bowling ball. We would joke not to put a Kleenex box on the back shelf or it could end up in your head.

    "I have so much money that I can afford to buy ugly" is definitely a thing. Lots of designer items, clothes, purses, watches are like that. There's also the Bentley Bentega.

    I had an XM to demo for a weekend. I didn’t like it. I think the X5M is a much better vehicle and it costs a lot less.
    By the way guys, the XM isn't an M Performance vehicle like you mentioned throughout the video, it, like the X5M is a full on M vehicle.
    Also, 👍 for turning the amount of ads way down.

    There are no reliable TH-cam reviewers out there, especially in the English-speaking world. It's hard to find channels that offer professional insights. Even some newcomers with limited knowledge and subjective opinions have millions of subscribers, flooding the platform with their content. They should all close their channels.
    Today, I went to the dealer for my M3 CS new model's break-in service and had the opportunity to test drive the XM (with 23-inch and 22-inch wheels). Wow, this was an insanely well-crafted vehicle. Especially the XM with 22-inch wheels had an amazing ride comfort. While the XM with 23-inch wheels had a slight uncomfortable stiffness during rebound (similar to what I felt in the X5 M), the engine, transmission, damping, and the vehicle's body control for such a large and heavy car were outstanding. It's unlikely that the Cayenne GTS or Turbo can match this performance (I'm not sure about the Turbo GT). Even with a discount, paying $150,000 for a car of this quality is beyond belief. It's truly the best. There's no other SUV competing at this level below $200,000. Not even the Urus or RSQ8 show this level of performance. I wonder what else could be out there? The X6 M seems unrivaled or even non-existent.
    It's not just about the 0-60 mph time. Lol.

      ? - It almost seems like you didn’t watch this review. Our guys complimented most of the things you mentioned, engine, dynamics, body control, luxury and the performance for this much weight were all mentioned. Meanwhile, we wonder which TH-cam channels you are referring to. This is our second and smaller channel. And our Everyday Driver channel is one of the original car review channels on this platform (since 2007). Thanks for taking the time

    I can't help but be somewhat annoyed that this over-$160,000 XM that costs more than my first house shares the stainless steel pedals with my wife's previous $50,000 330i M Sport. I think that, for all the engineering wizardry, the price tag demands more attention to detail. The interior does, in fact, look very nice, but to me, $160,000+ means we should get concept-car-esque levels of style. Oh, and the entire concept of this car as an M car is strange. An over-6000-pounds M car seems antithetical to the M brand.
