There is something about a Red Line version so no know if they will as my understanding is the XM is a one and done as I bet this platform is related to the IX.

I think it looks fantastic. I totally love it. I'm not a buyer though as my purchase price tops out at $100k.

Bmw wants me to retire bmws sometimes lol. But what else would I get 😂😂😂.
Honestly if I could afford a urus I'd get one other then that my joy in bmws have been amazing to say the least. Just a few gripes in design and options vs competition |

Why no updated steering wheel or switchgear? For that price and what it is should've had a more exclusive interior

This stood out to me: "plastic oil sump"
Is this a thing? I'm not familiar with vehicles doing this but open to being educated

I'd be curious to see the weight sans hybrid components They are all still fat pigs even at 1200-1000lbs...I bet this is a compromised chassis using the IX platform sans all the EV stuff. |

I don't know why but it makes me think of these guys.
And shouldn't it have like 800+ HP for a 3 ton $160k+ hybrid M SUV? My Rivian R1S wait remains worth it. |

At least they better integrated the curved touchscreen. It no longer looks like it's being held up by popsicle sticks.

Yeah. They've completely lost it. Looks like a car from a Halo map.

So thats how BMW honor 50 years of the M Division ? With a $160,000 plug-in hybrid crossover SUV that pays homage to the BMW M1..
When they said they will be making M cars without base series like the M1 , i just had hopes for something else , but its ok .. in this day and age SUVs makes sense.

Words like this have me hoping this is good:
"I appreciate the XM's powertrain, despite my brief time with it. But I adored the electric power-assisted steering from the first turn. The XM may still be in development, but it already has potentially the best steering of any BMW in over a decade and that's because it so clearly mimics older BMWs. It's not rapid and twitchy, like an M3. Hell, compared to the X6M I drove back from this test, it feels relaxed and vaguely analog in its responsiveness (aside from the lack of slop). Beautifully weighted on center, the effort required increases from modest to properly weighty as the steering angle climbs, but it's the natural sensation that wowed not just me, but most of the American media in attendance." |

The question is are those fully spec or light weight with no options.
Again, not saying the bmw isn't fat.. 5314 is what an optioned Urus weights as per Car and Driver https://www.caranddriver.com/reviews...-trip-iceland/ I think they all will get fat with the next gen as everyone will jump on the hybrid bandwagon to meet emissions standards. |
