The XM is among the most expensive models BMW has ever launched, playing in the big leagues with budget-wreaking cars such as the i8 Coupe and Roadster duo. Add region-specific massive taxes and you end up with an M car that carries an astronomical starting price. Indeed, the plug-in hybrid SUV has been officially launched in China where it retails for 2,300,000 yuan. That works out to approximately $333,400 or \u20ac312,000 at current exchange rates.<\/p>\n

Although BMW makes a lot of cars in China, including a fully electric long-wheelbase 3 Series Sedan known as the i3<\/a>, the XM is not one of them. Consequently, its subjected to steep import tariffs, which were significantly reduced from 25% to 15% in July 2018. The electrified mastodont will be imported from South Carolina as the dedicated M model is exclusively built at the Spartanburg plant.<\/p>\n
