Its predecessor was the trendsetter creating a brand-new segment in the market. And now the new BMW X5 is raising the driving experience in a Sports Activity Vehicle (SAV) to an even higher level.

Powerful eight- and six-cylinder engines, BMW xDrive permanent all-wheel drive once again enhanced to an even higher standard, and a brand-new suspension optimized from the ground up give the new model supreme agility and driving dynamics. The new V8 power unit develops maximum output of 261 kW/355 hp, and the new six-cylinder inline engine with its magnesium/ aluminum composite crankcase offers 200 kW/272 hp.
The large and highly versatile interior of the new BMW X5 offers maximum function and space for up to seven occupants. And at the same time, thanks to innovative features and equipment as well as high-class finish, the interior ensures exclusivity of the same caliber and standard as a luxury performance saloon.

The new BMW X5 is the first SAV in the world available with Active Steering, AdaptiveDrive (anti-roll stabilization and adaptive dampers) as well as a Head-Up Display, and comes as standard on runflat safety tyres.

Offering enhanced dynamics and an even higher standard of all-round supremacy, the new BMW X5 is continuing the victorious success of a truly exceptional vehicle concept. When introducing the former model, the first X5, BMW set up and established the brand-new segment of the SAV Sports Activity Vehicle.

As a spacious, luxurious, versatile and, at the same time, robust premium car offering excellent qualities through its electronically controlled all-wheel drive and superior driving dynamics for venturing out on rough terrain, the BMW X5 hit the headlines right from the start. And the success of this strategy is clearly reflected by more than 580,000 units sold worldwide in the meantime.
