BMW just launched one of the fastest cars ever in its four-door 2017 M550i xDrive sports sedan, which goes from 0-60 mph in under four seconds.

The interior is as well-appointed and ergonomic as any other Beemer although this version — available Spring 2017 — is equipped with state-of-the-art connection tech including synched BMW Connected and BMW Remote apps.
