This vehicle is ideal for those who desire a no-compromise, ultra-luxurious performance SUV with plug-in hybrid efficiency for daily commutes and exhilarating power for weekend drives.
Strengths
Exceptional power and acceleration from the M Hybrid powertrain, making it the most powerful BMW M production model ever.
Impressive all-electric driving range for a performance SUV, suitable for daily commutes.
Luxurious and tech-filled interior with high-quality materials, a curved infotainment display, and a host of advanced driver-assistance systems as standard.
Dynamic handling and a comfortable ride, thanks to its adaptive M suspension and active roll stabilization.
Tradeoffs
Poor fuel economy once the electric range is depleted, with efficiency plummeting to 14 MPG combined.
High curb weight, which can impact overall agility and efficiency.
Extremely high purchase price, making it a very expensive option in the luxury SUV segment.
Polarizing and extravagant exterior design may not appeal to all buyers.
What you might regret
Those who prioritize subtle luxury, traditional SUV styling, or maximum fuel efficiency without relying on electric charging might find this bold and heavy performance hybrid to be an unsuitable choice.
