Power

BMW X5 PerformanceWhichever of the three available engines you choose, you’ll find that the BMW X5 is packed with power.

The 3.0L inline 6-cylinder BMW TwinPower Turbo engine is standard on X5 40i models. This has an excellent fuel economy rating of an EPA-estimated 21 city/26 highway MPG; this will keep you free from that gas pump for longer.

On the X5 M50i, you’ll have a 4.4L V8 BMW M TwinPower Turbo engine, which can offer incredible power under the hood with 523 horsepower and 553 lb-ft of torque.

You could also choose the X5 xDrive45e, the hybrid option for the X5, with undeniable power and efficiency. This vehicle comes with a combination 3.0L inline 6-cylinder BMW TwinPower Turbo engine with an electric motor.

The 2021 X5 also has a few features designed to help improve overall efficiency and performance. It comes standard with Driving Dynamics Control, which has ECO PRO, COMFORT, and SPORT modes, for the ideal performance in every situation. It also has Brake Energy Regeneration, which will convert energy released when braking into power for the battery.

Technology

You’ll have access to cloud-based navigation, Apple CarPlay™, and Android Auto™ thanks to the standard iDrive 7.0 Operating System. And you won’t even have to take your hands off the wheel or eyes off the road to change your tunes with the voice activated controls.

The BMW X5 also comes standard with Active Driving Assistant, which includes:

  • Active Blind Spot Detection
  • Lane Departure Warning
  • Frontal Collision Warning
  • Speed Limit Info

The standard three-stage heated front seats will help you relax, and the available heated front armrests will only build on that. And even rear passengers can soak up the sights through the standard panoramic moonroof.

When you load up for that road trip, the maximum cargo space of 72.3 cubic feet will make packing a breeze. Plus, with the standard power split tailgate, you can load the back even if your hands are full.

If you need a balance between cargo room and passenger room, the 40/20/40 split-folding rear seats will help you find the perfect configuration. This way, you can make sure you’ll fit everyone and everything every time.
