A two-and-a-half-tonne plug-in hybrid super-SUV with over 650 hp and styling this confrontational is pure excess, and the XM wears that as a badge of honour. It is BMW M's swing for the fences, a car built to be excessive on purpose, and it musters a genuinely bonkers turn of speed for something the size of a small house. I love that it exists, but I will be honest with you: it is heavy, it is divisive to look at, and the electric-only range is more party trick than commuter tool. Buy it if you want the loudest statement in the whole M catalogue and truly do not care who disagrees.
