Detailed item info Model OverviewLaunched in 1999. the X5 is BMW's flagship mid-size SUV. or as BMW calls it. an SAV. or Sport Activity Vehicle. From the very beginning. BMW worked hard to make sure that sporty driving dynamics and a high level of responsiveness were programmed into the X5. This means the X5 features not only a great deal of utility. but with BMW's standard all-wheel drive system. a sure-footed nature in a variety of terrains. Add to that BMW's trademarked build quality and luxury. the X5 is a versatile vehicle that's well-placed at the top of its class. Three trims are available. starting with the xDrive35i and topping out with the xDrive50i. A high-performance X5 M model is also available. The 3. 0L inline 6-cylinder turbocharged engine in the xDrive35i makes 300 horsepower. xDrive50i versions are fitted with an all-aluminum twin-turbo 4. 4L V8 with variable valve timing and direct injection. It features what BMW calls a "reverse flow" setup. with its twin turbochargers situated within the valley between the cylinders. It makes 400 horsepower and 450 ft-lb of torque. Powering the xDrive35d is a 265-hp 3. 0L inline-6 diesel engine. The Variable TwinPower Turbo engine also produces 425 ft-lb of torque and delivers an EPA estimated 26 mpg on the highway. At the very top of the range is the intense X5 M. featuring 555 horsepower from a tuned version of the xDrive50i's 4. 4L V8. Both the xDrive35i and the xDrive50i use an 8-speed automatic transmission. first introduced in the 5-series Grand Turismo. Brake energy regeneration is also used on both gasoline engines. which uncouples the alternator from the accessory drive system. allowing the battery to only be charged during coasting or braking. This. BMW says. results in up to 2 percent fuel economy boost. The X5 M features a 6-speed automatic as the only transmission option.
