The all-new BMW X5: The Prestige SAV with the most innovative technologies

The year of the #BMW X model is about to hit another highpoint. Following the market launch of the first #BMW X2 (fuel consumption combined: 6.1 – 4.5 l/100 km [46.3 – 62.8 mpg imp]; CO2 emissions combined: 138 – 119 g/km*) and new #BMW X4 (fuel consumption combined: 9.2 – 5.4 l/100 km [30.7 – 52.3 mpg imp]; CO2 emissions combined: 209 – 142 g/km*), a new edition of the original #BMW X model is now ready for action. The fourth generation of the #BMW #x5 (fuel consumption combined: 11.6 – 6.0 l/100 km [24.4 – 47.1 mpg imp]; CO2 emissions combined: 264 – 158 g/km; provisional values*) impresses with its wealth of innovations and represents the most compelling embodiment yet of the familiar Sports Activity Vehicle (SAV) blueprint: the ability to venture off road combined with a talent for dynamic driving pleasure on it. Like its predecessors, the #BMW #x5 will be built at BMW Plant Spartanburg in the US. Its worldwide market launch will begin in November 2018.

The new V8 engine in the #BMW #x5 xDrive50i (not available in Europe) and a host of chassis systems making their debut in a #BMW X model – such as two- axle air suspension, Integral Active Steering and the Off-Road package – enhance the car’s versatility, dynamic ability and comfort levels. The highlights of its significantly expanded suite of driver assistance systems, meanwhile, are the Driving Assistant Professional and Parking Assistant Plus with Reversing Assistant. In addition, the new #BMW #x5 hosts the unveiling of the #BMW Live Cockpit Professional (fitted as standard), which allows the display and control system to be geared even more precisely to individual driver needs.

New design language exudes robust assurance and authority.

A wheelbase 42 mm longer than its predecessor’s (now 2,975 millimetres), a 36 mm increase in vehicle length (to 4,922 millimetres), an extra 66 mm of width (now 2,004 millimetres) and a 19 mm increase in height (to
1,745 millimetres) give the new #BMW #x5 both an imposing appearance and enviable interior space. The latest #x5 retains the hallmark proportions of an SAV, but its pared-back design language – clean surfacing and precise lines accentuating the car’s robustness, poise and authority – is new.
