- Meet the all-new BMW XM!
It’s the first BMW M-exclusive SUV, and Mat’s about to find out if it’s worth the eye-watering £147,000+ price tag!
For starters, let’s check out the design - and there’s no denying it’s certainly eye-catching! With a huge grille with horizontal slats up front, the XM looks like an absolute beast! There’s gold trim to be found from the front to the rear, and around the back, you’ll even find stacked horizontal tailpipes!
The impressive looks continue on the inside too, with a huge curved infotainment screen, super-comfy leather sports seats, and soft-touch materials throughout the cabin. There’s even a futuristic 3D-printed headliner!
Under the bonnet, you’ll find an almighty 4.4-litre twin-turbo V8 that can produce 653hp and 800Nm of torque. Although in the future a Label Red edition is due which will produce 748hp!
So it’s all pretty impressive, right? But is it really worth around £150,000?! Stick with Mat and see for yourself!

Yeah, this is one UGLY ass car.

Still less than G8X grills.

Yea you like because you are 18 years old fckig m generation or something :)))
Its a good thing its so powerful. That way it can go faster when it drives past people so they don't have to look at it for too long
💀😭😂🤣
WOW, BMW managed to build a vehicle that has all the charm of a pontiac aztec but at 10 times the price. Nice job!!
It’s going to be a cultish car
The Pontiac Aztec is nicer looking than this nightmare for eyes
What a time to be alive! The 8 series is back, Lambo Countach is back and now the Pontiac Aztec XM is back!!
Don't insult the Aztek by comparing it to this thing
@@yissibiiyte Aztek LM?
uglier than the aztek 🤣
Only any good if u can actually afford to own one.!
oh my god why did you say that. now i cant unsee the xm being a Aztec XD
"Peel back the meaty flap and there's easy access to the hole" 😂😂😂😂
That had me giggling as well 😂😂
@@christianolsen9781 it's amazing how he gets away with these type of jokes 😅
Knew someone got it💀
🤣🤣🤣 yeah and shoving his two fingers while saying that
Lol
Loved the straightpipes crossover! My two favorite car CZcamsrs together !
That was pretty random! I'm guessing they were doing their own car reviews there as well? Makes me think that all of these car CZcamsrs end up seeing each other at these big press events.
Same! I was like... wait 🤨 😂😂
Mat has a 3 second cameo in their review as well.
+1!
I loved the electric only 0-60mph test, you should do that with all hybrids!
well volvo xc90 t8 whit 2.0 engine 1sec.less 0-100km.-not bad ..
The fact that he didn't even mention the straight pipes guys crawling out of the trunk made it even better 👍
Who?

OMG The Straight Pipes cameo was hilarious😂
Agree. Wish Hoonigan also comes in.
Kkkkkkkk I thought I was seeing things at first. Had to see it twice😁
Straight Pipes chaps: "Hi, I'm Jakob!" "And I'm Yuri..."
Matt: "Yes, yes, get in there, you're going for a ride!"
It's hideous 🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢🤮
Who?
This thing all black in real life is beautiful. Video and pics don’t do it justice.
Matt - the glorious V12 M760Li had real wheel steer. You reviewed one 4 years ago. Such a shame we won't see the likes of that fabulous car again.
Love the straight pipes appearance! 😆😆
Doug De Muro should be there as well 😊
@Officialcarwow23 who is dumb enough to believe this scammer piece of💩.
Epic cameo
Matt should Collab with the STRAIGHT PIPES. Loved the cameo appearance ❤
@@anilnair2911 collab also with SavageGeese.
Even a mother couldn't love it.
😭😭😭🤣
Wait until you see it in real life and in other colours without the golden lines. I’ve seen it in 4 different colours and i actually like it.
@@Surferarno97 I've seen it in real life, and it's super ugly
I just don't know what the BMW designers have been smoking in the last 2 years but it's been messing with their brains heavily. It looks absolutely horrible.
@@ogabchemseddine1654 yes. I also already seen it once in a photoshoot. It is as ugly as 1963 Honda S500.
The design team did a nice job of making the car look horrible from every angle. Consistency 👍🏻
Man, I really am the odd one out huh, the cars kinda boxxy, but not tht much, the grills luk nice, even the tyres also, and the headlights too, everything feels🤌,😅
nah
i love its look
Yeah looks as horrible as it could be and super fat
Great work and fun video as always🤣 . Thanks you so much for the car details and the sticks in the first minutes 🤣
I love how the designers really put effort into making the vehicle look like something a 6 yr old would make out of legos... none of the design elements go together! There's just random pieces and bits of design all mismatched and chunked together, truly something you would see from a mismatched lego creation a child made.
100%
i am a bmw fan and i totally agree

Spot on
i honestly think it looks cool.
The Pontiac Aztec of the BMW world
The Aztec looks like Winona Ryder next to this abomination.
Would the driver be called Wagner Weiss?
Lol 😂😂😂
Walter White should consider this car
Oof. That’s a blow lol lol
Unlike other car manufacturers who consistently produce unique and daring concepts (i.e. Cadillac) and never bring them to market, BMW has the courage to do just that. The XM is bold and beautiful and let's be honest it requires a driver/owner with the confidence not to care what others think.
That carwow stick of truth in the exhaust "ohhh this is pleasing !!." Caught me off guard 😂
TheStraightPipes feature was smooth😂
That was a smooth operator!
"2 more in the rear hole!!" The look on Matt after saying that made me LMAO 😂😂😂😂
Matt doing a video without innuendos challenge impossible difficulty
That was indeed funny as feck! 😂
Classic Mat humor :)
On the brazzers trim level you can fit even more😮
I preferred "pull back the meaty flap and there's easy access to the hole" 😂😂😂
Great review! Lot of respect!
that was an awesome cameo of the @TheStraightPipes guys. whoever's idea,.. well done. 👏
I would be genuinely embarrassed seen getting out of that.
The ultimate car for dudes with small wieners
its already LADIES CHOICE
7:27 not expecting this two to came out 😅
The straight pipes their channel is good
@@balmann91 yes. So did Donut Media.
The bespokes for MG is a classic hybrid of the exterior of the M car prototypes. The IX had a great series with the front rear cylinder designation suspension that gave some real stability to the rear front hydraulics
Now a days, I watch Matt Watson reviews for entertainment rather than the car's review. Great content.
Love the way car reviewers support and cameo one another!! The sportsmanship is amazing and why they are at the top of their game. There is no competition they all work very hard to bring us quality in-depth reviews in their own special ways and we love them for it
It's great when the presenters aren't dicks in real life. That Yuri guy is annoying and thinks he deserves special treatment because he's a youtuber. Throttle House guys are both great though.

U
What are you talking about? Are you a BMW troll? The XM is a nightmare fuel. There is no design on this thing. It's a horrific vomit of design mistakes on design mistakes - and Matt is simply trying to soften the backlash by claiming "it's growing on me" - because he works for a car sales company. Don't be a sheep, don't accept anything you're fed!
Remember that the Lord Jesus Christ died on a cross for you because He loves you so much. He then rose up from the dead three days later
The Ten Commandments are called the moral law, (most of us are lying thieving blasphemous adulterer at heart and deserve hell) you and I broke the law, Jesus paid the fine. That’s what happened on that cross.
By believing that Jesus died on the cross and rose up from the dead 3 days later and not just confessing your sin, but also repenting of all sin you have done and putting all your trust in Him in prayer, He will grant you everlasting life as a free gift.
-People: "What happened with BMW design?"
-BMW: "What is design?"
I think BMW has the best design currently. People who like the 2000 tier teardrop shape have enough options already.
Incredible review, masterfully directed - so much artistic excelence going on here, I love the pervy interior overview.. So many flappy meat holes (lol) Bravo on the video, greatly entertaining. I wish I could say the same about this monstricity, as a lifelong classic bmw enthusiast, at least I can now laugh again
6:34 “You just peel back the meaty flap and there’s easy access to the hole”
Damn you Matt 😂😂😂
Straight pipe Boys coming out form the boot 😂
That caught me off guard at first.
@@snakeeyes9246 agree.
GREAT cameo by Jacob and Yuri. 😅😂 good to see fellow youtubers in each others video!! 👍👍 The BMW is not as good looking as an Aston or Ferrari SUV lol.
@Carwow... Lowlife scammer, you're pathetic.
Don't even use BMW in the same sentence as Aston and Ferrari
I'm gonna send a clip of Matt turning the car off and on like a DJ to the system testing team🤣. I was so nervous the entire time; we need to add a `Matt` test now!
I love this guy ! Always entertaining which makes you watch throughout without a skip , awesome 👏
650hp from a plug in hybrid is disappointing. It needed to be closer to 800hp seeing as the engine itself should be making 650hp itself as it's the same unit in the M5 CS
Ikr, AMG got basically the same power from a 4 cylinder and more total output in the new C63. This entire car is a misfire imo
There will be "red label" trim that give you 740 hp later this year
Actually it's not the same engine as the M5 CS. This has the brand new S68 vs the M5 that used the S63. Both 4.4l but the S68 is supposed to be more efficient and emissions compliant
@@jonathan109576 wonder if u have to pay monthly for it 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
were talking about an SUV i mean even an Urus tops at 665hp like who would want 800 hp on an SUV like might as well get a sports car
And I thought the Urus was over styled 😂
Bro this is overuglied, at least the Urus doesn't look as bad 🤣
No stylists were harmed during the development of this tank.
Honestly i cant believe how ugly this car is, its ridiculous
@@flavourinyourear Ok
@@CanisoGaming Urus? Not just Urus, Smart Fortwo Cab is also better than this X6M.
holy shit Mat, your puns during the review of the rear seats had me CRACKING xD
Hahah couldn’t stop laughing seeing Jacob and Yuri when they got out of the back hahah love it
I can imagine that the best part of being an IT specialist is predicting behaviour similar to the one presented by Mat (11:00) and programming everything in such a way, that it won’t break lol
In software we leave that to the QA team
@@HaloDude557 But in the automotive industry (at least my company) we call them the "Validation team".
Won't break? It was incredible that it actually didn't in the half a minute he was doing it tbh. I was expecting a CEL or some other warning to appear.
i wish i was blind every time someone makes a new BMW video
Ignore the congrats u have won . It's a scammer . I received the same one on another car utube site.
@@withapulse2000 No shit Sherlock
I love how the Straight Pipes included in your video hehehe
great review! I love this beast of car!! 6:27 got me dying🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
6:34 i turned away for a second and only heard the audio and gasped 😂.
The Straightpipes coming out of the boot was the best😂
Love the cameo by the Straight Pipes in the boot!
I loved the dance you started the vehicle with😂❤
I like this honest review. Finally someone who is not only praising a 180.000 Euro car. Thank you.
Even the usual sycophantic journalists are criticising it for not being particularly good in being sporty or comfy 🤣 it’s all coming together now
Hes not dissing it, it looks terrible
That 0-60 run looked like it was on bit of a downward slope😉
😂
They built the car on a bit of a downward slope

"Bit of".... 30 °😂
I seen the white one they had at the Chicago auto show last month. I like the vertical exhausts.
that charging flap slap. dude you rock
As long as they have the fistable door mirrors, I’m okay with it😂
I usually fist the rear piping
1:55 😂😂😂 "Fistable door mirrors....very Fistable" 😂😂😂
The Straight Pipes just casually crawling out the trunk 😂 7:25
Matt looks very serious talking about the rear hole😂😂😂
'Overstyled' just got a whole new meaning with this.
I'm astonished as to how or why BMW is convinced that making their cars look like off-brand angry birds is a good idea.
Every new one that comes out looks fuglier than the last one, but it's not making the earlier fugly models look any better either. I miss my first real car which was a certified pre-owned 428i xDrive finished in imperial blue with the m-sport package that I bought my senior year of college. I traded it in for an Audi A5 Sportback, but kept tabs on it because I wanted to buy it back one day. The next owner totaled it less than a year later in Nov. 2022 so I can't buy it back, and I won't even entertain the idea of buying another one for a long, long, loooonnnnggg time - it's somewhat heartbreaking if I'm honest.
Ya I switched from BMW to Alfa. BMW has found a honey pot, but they have sold their soul
@@JStryker7 I would have gone for a Guila if the trunk wasn't so shallow. Cross shopped for one when I bought the BMW and when I bought my Audi. I needed more practicality at the time, and the A5 sportback was as close to an RS6 as I could get/afford since BMW lost their gift of sight... and taste... and marketing... and the value of retaining their customers... and ability to hear feedback.........
It's even more absurd when you read through an article from BMW head designers saying art is subjective and their design was suppose to be a bold statement not beautiful. Which is bizarre to me because at the end of the day it still a product you have to sell to the customers.
Especially the re-designs of their high-end models have all been horrendous. They don't even share the same design language anymore, looks like they're from different manufacturers. IMO, the BMW 3/4 series received the most decent overhaul...
@@NBASFAN the thing is that BMW has now shifted it's focus from it's traditional customers. Now they're focusing more on the Chinese and the South Asian market. Their new buyers don't really care about how ugly it looks coz mostly they don't have much idea of design. All they care about are features, tech and the BMW badge. So even though the BMW's now are just hideously ugly, but in terms of design, they are visually loud and that is what attracts most of their new buyers. It's a great show off tool for them.
I didn't enjoy the outside, but the interior design was perfect and luxurious. Thanks for reviewing this expensive BMW. ❤❤💙💙
7:22 The Straight Pipes easter egg was so good!
I love the general disregard for seriousness and the first instinct to go with what will convey how you really feel
Mat's sexual innuendos though 🤣🤣🤣'pull back the meaty flap" lol, this dude outta pocket and I love it
It looks amazing in the standard blue/grey/gold color… and in person.
the front would look great on a 18 wheeler with exhaust stacks
10:55 ~ that's why he's the best car reviewer
Nice car, thanks for video.
“Peel back the meaty flap and then there’s the hole” 😂😂😂😂 how you got away with that Matt I’ll never know 😂😂
The tiniest rear wiper for that huge rear window 😂
Haha Yuri couldn't stop himself taking a shy at the camera.. Great brief collab there ❤
The innuendo's in this clip are hilarious.
Getting this car next month and i can not wait especially after watching this review.
Loved The Straight Pipes’ cameo!!
I didn’t think BMW could do any worse after the mess they made with the 1 Series etc and then the huge beaver grills on the M3/M4, but they actually have done a lot worse. This thing may be impressive from an engineering standpoint but it is ghastly to look at 🤮
Same thoughts. It looks like from some time BMW is throwing away all the basics of good styling (harmony of lines, good use of shapes and curves with purposefully transitions).
Vertical exhaust is quite unusual but looks like it was taken from their motorbike division (BMW F900R or GS 1250) and the recent one is just ugly. Lots of cheap glossy black plastics, oddly looking "M" badge (it is too close to the middle that it should be just be placed under the light, more on the side).
This one reminds me a little bit of gaming PC - flashy, lots of RGB lights, pricy and - for most of the time - totally pointless.
Performance is there but the looks and design... no words.
@@Aelavin Kamil, this BMW X6 is surprisingly good.
They made it for Chinese people that have zero class or taste. That’s 100% truth
This is a beautiful car. The best BMW ever.
Man that bever teeth grills are🤢🤢🤢🤮🤮🤮🤢🤮🤮🤢🤮🤢🤢🤮🤢🤮🤢🤮🤢🤮🤮🤢🤢🤮🤢🤢
looks like a angry bird
"peel back the meaty flaps to get acess to the hole" I think that is definitely one of the ways to say that hahaha, nice video as always Mat!
Perfect engineering just a shame the design team went on holiday during the design phase
much awaited review.... Awesome M edition🤩
'peel back the meaty flap for access to the hole' 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Priceless...
Looks like one of those game glitches where the 3D character tries to warp out of the map.
"Easy access to the hole?", "Fit three in the rear?" - the random straight pipes cameo. This review was so chaotic 😂😂😂
That makes the G8- series look amazing, what a monstrosity
Fistable door mirrors hahahaha. Mat has a way with words 🤣
1:56 WAIT WHAAAAAT 🤣🤣🤣
Love watching these car reviews 👌🏼

looks like designed by Homer Simpson, new low for BMW, seems that majority of their clients are grown up adults , mentally locked at 8 year old😂
If you buy this in Europe or any other place in the world, will it get extra OPF stuffs compared to this US one? Sounds really good even at 4500 rpm
Of course Lol
yes it does. Wow!
Sounds not good..not even without opf in the video here..
It sounds “good” compared to 1.6 citroen

This is a car review video with great cameos..
7:24 @ThestraightPipes guys from the boot 😂😂
Did the 0-60 test on a slope. Will affect the time result positively. Bit of a BMW bias from Matt
I doubt that was intentional. He has never been biased towards BMW in the past (except for back when their iDrive was one of the best infotainment UIs in the business, and that was just due to functionality), and regularly cracks jokes about "BMW fanboys" in his drag race videos. He probably didn't notice the gentle slope, or had no other choice but to do it there due to possibly a tight schedule, or limited locations for filming that were traffic-free at the time.
XM was a luxurious Citroën in the early 90s and also had a cutting edge design. But in a good way.
Great information
The best part when he pushed the central console and you could hear all the creaks and squeaks and then he just said "Solid" 04:11
