Munich. Unmissable, irresistible, unconventional: Its
powerful presence and a unique design language make the first BMW XM
(fuel consumption combined: 1.6 – 1.5 l/100 km [176.6 – 188.3 mpg imp]
in the WLTP cycle; electric power consumption combined: 30.1 – 28.9
kWh/100 km in the WLTP cycle; CO2 emissions combined: 36 – 33 g/km in
the WLTP cycle; figures for the NEDC cycle: – *) an exceptional
phenomenon on the roads of this world. The first electrified
high-performance automobile from BMW M GmbH fascinates with its
extrovert appearance as much as with its innovative, 480 kW/653 hp M
HYBRID drive. Additional options for expressing both the unmistakable
character of the BMW XM and the personal style of its owner are opened
up by the special paintwork from BMW Individual, which can be ordered
from April 2023.
At the US BMW Group plant in Spartanburg, flexibility in the
painting process is now being increased even further. This means that
BMW Individual special paint finishes will also be available for the
plug-in hybrid model in the future. The new body colors, including the
variants BMW Individual Urban Green, BMW Individual Petrol Mica
metallic, BMW Individual Anglesey Green metallic and BMW Individual
Sepia metallic, enhance the extravagant charisma of the BMW XM with a
particularly individual touch.
The BMW Individual special paint finishes, which are as
exclusive as they are expressive, emphasize the design language for
the exterior of the BMW XM, which is characterized by generous
surfaces, dynamically flowing lines and sharp edges. All BMW
Individual special paint finishes are applied in a separate
manufacturing process with an increased proportion of manual work. A
particularly precise surface treatment and a careful finish ensure
that they are characterized by impressive color depth and maximum brilliance.
