2026 BMW XM: Brash PHEV SUV gets $34k price cut in Australia
The updated2026 BMW XMplug-in hybrid (PHEV) SUV is scheduled to arrive in Australia before the end of this year with a huge price cut, as the current three-tier range is reduced to a single model grade. The current mid-spec XM Label will become the sole XM in local showrooms from 2026 onwards, with its current price cut from $344,200 to $309,900 before on-road costs. It will replace both the entry level XM – which is $302,200 before on-roads – and the flagship $349,900 XM Red Label.

The updated Porsche Cayenne and Range Rover Sport rival will use the same 550kW/1000Nm 4.4-litre twin-turbo PHEV powertrain found in the current XM Label, making it the most powerful production BMW ever built. It also endows it with a 0-100km/h claim of 3.8 seconds and an autobahn-suitable 290km/h top speed. The 2026 XM also brings upgraded 11kW AC charging (up from 7.4kWh) allowing its 25.7kWh battery pack to be topped up in 2 hours 45 minutes – 1 hour 15 minutes faster than before. There's also the same 98km electric-only driving range as the current XM, making for a combined fuel usage claim of 2.7L/100km. The 2026 XM will also be offered with a new Frozen Tanzanite Blue exterior colour (pictured) as a no-cost option among what BMW says will be an expanded range of personalisation choices. Three new interior leather colours are available too, including Night Blue with Vintage Leather; as well as a no-cost upgrade from the standard 22-inch alloys to one of four different 23-inch alloy wheel styles, with brake calipers in either high-gloss red or high-gloss black.

BMW EV sales jumped 160.4 per cent year-on-year, which helped the Bavarian premium manufacturer become the fourth best-selling electric car brand in Australia behind Tesla, BYD and MG.
