BMW X Models News

BMW has announced that a small fleet of hydrogen fuel-cell electric vehicles (FCEVs) will be brought to Australia next year. Due in the first half of 2024, three iX5 Hydrogen prototypes will land in Melbourne for a six-month tour of the country, as part of BMW’s global test program that will also see them complete visits to regions running the entire spectrum of climate and geographic experiences.

It’s a case of in with the new and… in with the old as well. Starting next year, there will be two dramatically distinct Mini Coopers from BMW.

BMW Australia is introducing a new entry level variant to one of its most premium models, the X7 SUV, in the form of the X7 xDrive40i.

BMW's M division has been working on making one of the brand's most popular models even more appealing, giving the X1 small SUV the marque's most powerful four-cylinder engine along with plenty of other performance tweaks.

The BMW Australia range has been subjected to a significant pricing increase for the second time in 2023, with only a few variants managing to escape the bump.With some models’ pricing increased by as much as $9000, the pricing adjustments have been applied to almost every model except for the non-M 4 Series, which had its pricing adjusted quite recently, as well as the brand’s electric SUV iX models.Also excluded from the pricing adjustments are the updated BMW X5 and X6 SUVs, which had new prices confirmed in February this year to reflect a change in specification.At the time, the increased pricing for the X5 and X6 range was bumped up by $8000 over the old model (to start from $134,900 before on-roads for the X5 xDrive30d). Electrification and tech updates are the main changes for the new 2023 models.The only model in this round of pricing updates to have a feature or specification change is the X7 xDrive40d which gains a light-up 'glowing' kidney grille.In January, BMW Australia adjusted pricing across the range by thousands of dollars for each model, with some up by as much as $11,500, though models that had increased prices were also subject to updates like the addition of head-up displays in some variants or heated steering wheels in M models.A spokesperson for BMW Australia told CarsGuide the adjustments still aim to ensure competitive pricing for its customers.“BMW constantly reviews its pricing structure throughout the year, taking into consideration a number of different factors,” they said.“However, we always aim to ensure our products remain appropriately positioned and represent a competitive pricing proposition in the market for our customers.”A full list of pricing updates can be found below.2023 BMW 1 Series pricing before on-road costs2023 BMW 2 Series pricing before on-road costs2023 BMW 3 Series pricing before on-road costs2023 BMW 4 Series pricing before on-road costs2023 BMW 5 Series pricing before on-road costs2023 BMW 7 Series pricing before on-road costs2023 BMW 8 Series pricing before on-road costs2023 BMW X1 pricing before on-road costs2023 BMW X2 pricing before on-road costs2023 BMW X3 pricing before on-road costs2023 BMW X4 pricing before on-road costs2023 BMW X5 pricing before on-road costs2023 BMW X6 pricing before on-road costs2023 BMW X7 pricing before on-road costs2023 BMW Z4 pricing before on-road costs2023 BMW iX pricing before on-road costs2023 BMW XM pricing before on-road costs

It’s only just hit the market but already BMW has given its flagship XM high-performance plug-in hybrid SUV an upgrade with the arrival of the premium XM Label Red.

Pencilled in for a late 2023 launch, there’s still plenty left to reveal – including the all-important pricing info – but a clearer picture of what Kia’s anticipated circa-$100,000-plus EV SUV alternative to an BMW X7, Mazda CX-90 and Volvo XC90 is emerging.

BMW's entry-level SUV, the compact X1, has quietly cracked the $60,000 barrier thanks to a substantial price hike applied only four months after the latest version hit local showrooms.

BMW has produced a pilot fleet of approximately 100 iX5 Hydrogen fuel-cell electric vehicles (FCEVs) that will see service in demonstrations and commercial trails around the world.

BMW has upped the price of its fire-breathing X5 and X6 M Competition twins as part of a mid-life update, but they are still more affordable than the equivalent Mercedes-AMG models.
