The BMW is a Crossover SUV with 5 doors, and a spacious boot. The X5 makes for a great family car, as the rear seats are enormous. With up to 340 bhp on offer, the X5 marks a brilliant compromise between sporty performance and enough practicality for a family. The X5 comes with BMW's xDBMW all-wheel-drive system. Combined with aTwinPower Turbo engine, the BMW X5 is just as good offroad as it is in the city or on a motorway.
What you can expect to find in a BMW X5
The BMW X5 is available in only 4 trims, so it's pretty easy to make a decision on what you fancy. You have your choice between the xLine model, and the more expensive M Sport model, the M50D model, and the range-topping M50i. However, - you still have plenty of customisation options. If you're buying a new X5, there are various packages available for personalisation as well as a wide range of metallic paints and interior options too. In terms of features, even the cheaper M Sport model comes with some fantastic features, such as:
- 20-inch Star-Spoke alloy wheels
- Dual-zone climate control
- Automatic LED headlights with daytime running lights
- Automatic rain-sensing window wipers
It seems like every manufacturer is coming out with a crossover/SUV car, to capitalise on the current trend. Naturally, BMW is a big name, so people take notice when the brand releases a new car. The X5 offers something for everyone. It's perfect for families who need lots of practicality, great for those that want a sporty driving experience, and a solid choice for adventurers who need some off-road capability. To stay ahead of the stiff competition, the latest X5 has some range-topping features. If you're buying used, the features available in your BMW X5 will vary depending upon the model, trim, and year, and may include:
- 22-inch alloy wheels
- iDrive infotainment system, compatible with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay
- Active adaptive air suspension
- Side mirror heater
Sometimes SUVs are just for looks. They might appear to be ready to go off-road at a moment's notice, but many are best-suited to cities and motorways. The X5 is not one of these imposters. The BMW X5 lets you choose precisely what environment you're you're in. It comes with xSnow mode for grip on slippy roads, xGravel for a higher suspension on loose ground, xRock for super-high suspension for challenging terrain, and xSand - in case you find yourself driving on a beach or through the Sahara. Inside the car, the X5 is stunning. The leather interior is of the highest quality, and the driver's seat is incredible. The driving position is nice and high, and the passengers in the rear seats won't have any complaints either. As a super-premium car, the BMW X5 SUV will net you a high resale value a few years down the line.
