However, it wasn\u2019t the mid-engine M1 supercar\u2019s spiritual successor enthusiasts had hoped for, but rather yet another SUV. Positioned above the X5\/X6 M, the XM was unveiled in late September 2022. Less than seven months later, in mid-April 2023, an even more powerful version was introduced.<\/p>\n<p>Originally called XM Label Red before <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bmwblog.com\/2023\/11\/09\/bmw-xm-label-red-changes-name-to-xm-label\/\">dropping the last word<\/a>, the high-performance SUV is BMW\u2019s most potent production car ever. It has an astounding 738 hp and 737 lb-ft (1,000 Nm) instead of the regular XM\u2019s 644 hp and 590 lb-ft (800 Nm). Speaking with <em>Top Gear<\/em> magazine, M CEO Frank van Meel admitted the Label\u2019s launch was rushed as BMW should\u2019ve introduced the hotter variant later in the life cycle.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/bmw-xm-label-red-sepia-blue-37.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-463521\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/bmw-xm-label-red-sepia-blue-37-830x553.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"830\" height=\"553\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/bmw-xm-label-red-sepia-blue-37-830x553.jpg 830w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/bmw-xm-label-red-sepia-blue-37-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/bmw-xm-label-red-sepia-blue-37-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/bmw-xm-label-red-sepia-blue-37-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/bmw-xm-label-red-sepia-blue-37.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 830px) 100vw, 830px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The mayor of M Town told the British journalists this is why XM\u2019s sales haven\u2019t been great thus far. In the first nine months of the year, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bmwblog.com\/2023\/11\/03\/bmw-xm-global-sales-4450-units-first-nine-months-2023\/\">BMW sold 4,450 units globally<\/a>. The electrified SUV\u2019s biggest markets are projected to be the United States and China with half of the demand. The British magazine calls it the \u201cfail of the year\u201d and \u201c2023\u2019s worst car.\u201d They also claim the XM is proof people won\u2019t automatically buy a vehicle just because it has the roundel, even though dealers in the United States are allegedly offering $10,000 discounts.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cBMW M Division boss Frank Van Meel is defiant. He tells TopGear.com the reason the XM hasn\u2019t done the numbers is because BMW made a bit of a cock-up. The mistake? Revealing the 750bhp XM \u2018Label Red\u2019 too soon. Turns out anyone who wants the most offensive SUV possible isn\u2019t happy to settle for the boggo version once they know there\u2019s an even more tasteless spec waiting in the wings.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Let\u2019s face it, the XM was never really going to be popular. With a starting price of $159,000 for the standard model and $185,000 for the Label, you can\u2019t realistically expect it to top the sales charts. Some markets with high taxes on large-displacement engines also get the cheaper <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bmwblog.com\/2023\/04\/13\/bmw-xm-50e-technical-specifications-officially-revealed\/\">XM 50e<\/a> with a smaller inline-six plug-in hybrid setup.<\/p>\n<p>The XM is still in its early days on the market and while it\u2019s certainly no M1, that powertrain does point to the future. Next year\u2019s M5 Sedan and M5 Touring will adopt the same hybrid V8 in a less controversial-looking package. All of BMW M\u2019s next-generation M models will be electrified, so the XM is leading the way.<\/p>\n<p>Ideally, the Vision M Next should\u2019ve been the first to get this setup, but the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bmwblog.com\/2020\/08\/07\/bmw-vision-m-next-is-officially-dead-due-to-cost\/\">supercar was axed<\/a> due to prohibitive development costs.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.topgear.com\/car-news\/best-2023\/fail-year-why-bmw-xm-2023s-worst-car\"  rel=\"noopener\">Top Gear<\/a><\/p>\n<p>First published by https:\/\/www.bmwblog.com<\/p>\n\n<h2><b>Commercials Cooperation Advertisements:<\/b><\/h2>\r\n<p><br>(1) IT Teacher IT Freelance<br> <\/p>\r\n<a href=https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress><img src=http:\/\/gamefootballmobileanimeiphone.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/ITTeacherITFreelance-Website.png alt=IT\u96fb\u8166\u88dc\u7fd2 java\u88dc\u7fd2 \u70ba\u5927\u5bb6\u914d\u5c0d\u96fb\u8166\u88dc\u7fd2,IT freelance, \u79c1\u4eba\u8001\u5e2b, PHP\u88dc\u7fd2,CSS\u88dc\u7fd2,XML,Java\u88dc\u7fd2,MySQL\u88dc\u7fd2,graphic design\u88dc\u7fd2,\u4e2d\u5c0f\u5b78ICT\u88dc\u7fd2,\u4e00\u5c0d\u4e00\u79c1\u4eba\u88dc\u7fd2\u548cFreelance\u81ea\u7531\u5de5\u4f5c\u914d\u5c0d\u3002\/><\/a><p><a href=https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/findteacher>\u7acb\u523b\u8a3b\u518a\u53ca\u5831\u540d\u96fb\u8166\u88dc\u7fd2\u8ab2\u7a0b\u5427! <\/a><br>\r\n\r\n\u7535\u5b50\u8ba1\u7b97\u673a -\u6559\u80b2 -IT \u96fb\u8166\u73ed\u201d ( IT\u96fb\u8166\u88dc\u7fd2 ) \u63d0\u4f9b\u4e00\u500b\u65b9\u4fbf\u7684\u7535\u5b50\u8ba1\u7b97\u673a \u6559\u80b2\u5e73\u53f0, \u70ba\u5927\u5bb6\u914d\u5c0d\u4fe1\u606f\u6280\u672f, \u96fb\u8166 \u8001\u5e2b, IT freelance \u548c programming expert. \u8b93\u5927\u5bb6\u65b9\u4fbf\u5730\u5c31\u80fd\u627e\u5230\u5408\u9069\u7684\u96fb\u8166\u88dc\u7fd2, \u96fb\u8166\u73ed, \u5bb6\u6559, \u79c1\u4eba\u8001\u5e2b.  <br>\r\n\r\nWe are a education and information platform which you can find a IT private tutorial teacher or freelance. <br>\r\n\r\nAlso we provide different information about information technology, Computer, programming, mobile, Android, apple, game, movie, anime, animation\u2026 \r\n<\/p>\n<p><br>(2) ITSec<br> <\/p><a href=https:\/\/itsec.vip><img src=http:\/\/gamefootballmobileanimeiphone.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/ITSec-Main-Promotion-Image.png alt= https:\/\/itsec.vip\/\r\nSecure Your Computers from Cyber Threats and mitigate risks with professional services to defend Hackers.  \r\nITSec provide IT Security and Compliance Services, including IT Compliance Services, Risk Assessment, IT Audit, Security Assessment and Audit, ISO 27001 Consulting and Certification, GDPR Compliance Services, Privacy Impact Assessment (PIA), Penetration test, Ethical Hacking, Vulnerabilities scan, IT Consulting, Data Privacy Consulting, Data Protection Services, Information Security Consulting, Cyber Security Consulting, Network Security Audit, Security Awareness Training.\/><\/a> \r\n<br><br> \r\n<p><a href=https:\/\/itsec.vip>www.ITSec.vip<\/a> <br> <br> \r\n<p><a href=https:\/\/sraa.com.hk>www.Sraa.com.hk<\/a> <br> <br> \r\n<p><a href=https:\/\/itsec.hk>www.ITSec.hk<\/a> <br> <br> \r\n<p><a href=https:\/\/penetrationtest.hk>www.Penetrationtest.hk<\/a> <br> <br> \r\n<p><a href=https:\/\/itseceu.uk>www.ITSeceu.uk<\/a> <br> <br> \r\nSecure Your Computers from Cyber Threats and mitigate risks with professional services to defend Hackers. <br><br>\r\nITSec provide IT Security and Compliance Services, including IT Compliance Services, Risk Assessment, IT Audit, Security Assessment and Audit, ISO 27001 Consulting and Certification, GDPR Compliance Services, Privacy Impact Assessment (PIA), Penetration test, Ethical Hacking, Vulnerabilities scan, IT Consulting, Data Privacy Consulting, Data Protection Services, Information Security Consulting, Cyber Security Consulting, Network Security Audit, Security Awareness Training. \r\n<br><br>Contact us right away. <br><br>Email (Prefer using email to contact us): <br>SalesExecutive@ITSec.vip<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"830\" height=\"511\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/BMW-XM-Label-Anglesey-Green-33-830x511.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium wp-post-image\" alt=\"\"><\/div>\n<p>2022 marked BMW M\u2019s 50th anniversary and the year we finally got a new dedicated M car.
