Lol.

Looking forward to details about these. I'm still optimistic about the XM, although the prototype release left me concerned.

I thought the whole premise of the XM was that there would be no other variant?

Correct me if I'm wrong- but I had heard multiple times in videos and test drives with the project lead himself saying "you will not be able to purchase an XM "base" or smaller model?

Pretty much from the beginning they've talked about multiple XM engine levels. What makes it unique is that it's the first model in years to be built from the ground up. It's not just an expanded or coupe version of an X7

M now stands for ///Marketing

Or maybe they want to be more like "AMG Black"?

Can we expect the black label power train in the G90?

Perhaps BMW intends to launch their new performance subscription model with the XM. Comes equipped to handle high output numbers from the factory but then they offer various subscription packages for the output tune you want.

I know this car will probably sell like hotcakes, and go head-to-head with the Urus for half the price.... but I still don't see how this is either a dedicated M car or a brand builder.

What he meant was:

Either way, the combo is terrible.

São Paulo Yellow is one of the standard colors for extra cringe.

A stand alone ///M vehicle? Or is it a stand alone X vehicle? The designation isn't clear from a basic marketing perspective.
Previous spirits project code names:
  • "Jägermeister" for the E92 M3 GTS (Jägermeister digestif - former sponsor);
  • "Pyrat" for the E82 1M (Pyrat rum);
  • "Pyrat2" for the F87 M2.
Bentley's first chassis, the 3 Litre, was offered in three variants

• Blue Label
• Red Label
• Green Label

The names were the suggestion of George Paterson Walker and have remained in use throughout the company's history. Black Label was added to denote the Highest Performant Variants beginning with "T" models and continued with Speed models.
XM aka "Rock Star" (project code name)...

oooooh the black label!!!

...

You do you, BMW Marketing, you do you.


the most annoying thing about this car, is that it will come out, and ALL journalists will just say how wonderfully it drives, how BMW still got it, etc. And youtubers will love its quirks and features. Indeed it will sell nicely, as long as economy is going strong, otherwise it will flop because it is too late to Urus party and excess of teens.

As much as one can appreciate the extent of differentiation sought by marketing experts, the uncanny resemblance with the product line by a major producer of fine distilled spirits cannot be unnoticed.

Uuuuuh girl, can't wait for Red label, with B38B15 with just 326 HP.

Jokes aside, why? Didn't everyone say XM was going with a one flavour?
