The MX gets a newly developed V8, petrol engine combined with an electric motor. The total power output of the vehicle stands at 643bhp while the total torque is 800Nm. These figures are lower than the ones quoted for the XM concept back in 2021. When BMW first unveiled the concept, it had a power output of 737bhp and a peak torque of 1,000Nm. Granted that the drop in figures is significant, but 600+bhp is nothing to sniff at. All of the power is sent to all four wheels via the first hybrid-specific M xDrive four-wheel drive system. There is also an electronically controlled differential lock in the rear axle transmission. What has not changed is the promise of delivering 80km on the WLTP cycle when driving in the electric mode.
