2024 BMW XM Label Pink previewed as 700-plus-hp flagship mannequin

The 2024 BMW XM Label Pink is on its solution to reign over the German carmaker’s vary. Whereas it isn’t due out till the autumn of 2023, the agency previewed its upcoming flagship mannequin by publishing an official picture and a set of preliminary specs on its social media channels.

BMW is not giving us a lot data, however what little it launched solutions a number of key questions. First, the range-topping XM will likely be known as Label Pink and never Pink Label as beforehand reported. That might be as a result of Bentley has used the “Pink Label” designation a number of instances since its inception, although BMW would not appear overly involved with dusting off present nameplates different firms have not utilized in years. Throughout Europe, the XM identify is extra generally related to a 13-window Citroën sedan than with an enormous, high-horsepower SUV.

Second, the Label Pink will make its debut with 750 horsepower and 738 pound-feet of torque, figures greater than BMW initially introduced. There could also be a catch: BMW’s Instagram publish pegs the SUV’s output at 750 horsepower however notes “550 kilowatts” in parentheses, and that quantity converts to roughly 738 horsepower. One thing acquired misplaced in translation; we have emailed the corporate and we’ll replace this story if we study extra. Regardless, exactly what this variant of the XM will likely be powered by hasn’t been launched. All we all know is that energy will come from a gasoline-electric plug-in hybrid powertrain able to delivering about 55 miles of electric-only vary when put via the optimistic WLTP testing cycle utilized in Europe. For context, the usual XM’s 644-horsepower plug-in hybrid system consists of a twin-turbocharged V8 engine and an electrical motor built-in into the gearbox and linked to a 25.7 kilowatt-hour lithium-ion battery pack.

Pink exterior accents will differentiate the Label Pink from the opposite variations of the XM. They seem across the kidney grilles, across the home windows, and on the wheels. There is a crimson badge within the driver-side kidney grille as nicely, and we anticipate finding extra crimson within the cabin.

BMW will start constructing the XM Label Pink within the fall of 2023, which means it would seemingly arrive in showroom as a 2024 mannequin. Precise pricing hasn’t been introduced, however we all know the mannequin will change into the most costly automotive in BMW’s modern-day vary with $185,000-plus price ticket.
