The 2014 BMW X5 marks the luxury sport-utility's third generation.
And after 15 years in production, you can finally buy it with rear-wheel
drive. All previous X5s have come with standard all-wheel drive, more
for on-road performance than ability in the dirt. But if potential
buyers were discouraged by the extra weight and expense of an
all-wheel-drive X5 before, they're out of excuses now.
BMW has
good reason to make the X5 more accessible. The model has been a hit
since its introduction in 1999, among the first SUVs to wear its urban
style and utility on its sleeve. The X5 brazenly inferred that driving
the long way to a new restaurant downtown was more fun than splitting
puddles out in the forest. The image worked; X models account for nearly
a third of all BMW brand sales.
The X5 platform carries over unchanged,This is my second set of streetlightingses and

options including dynamic damper control, automatic rear self-leveling
and the adaptive M suspension (part of the M Sport package), which adds a
rear air suspension and more aggressive tuning. A Dynamic Handling
package combines dynamic damper control, automatic rear self-leveling
suspension, dynamic performance control and active roll stabilization.
The
X5's exterior style evolves toward the rest of the BMW family look. The
twin kidney grilles now meet the edge of the headlight housings, the
latter encasing new flat-bottomed signature corona rings. Air Curtains
and Air Breathers -- cutouts in the front fascia and front fenders to
aid cooling and aerodynamics -- also debut.
The rear-wheel-drive
sDrive35i and all-wheel-drive xDrive35i will both use a turbocharged
3.0-liter inline six-cylinder generating 300 horsepower and 300
pound-feet of torque. BMW says the new all-wheel-drive X5 is 0.2 second
quicker from zero to 60 mph (6.The standing lampshades is

seconds). The top-trim xDrive50i gets a twin-turbo 4.4-liter V8
generating 445 hp and 480 lb-ft of torque. The new xDrive50i covers zero
to 60 mph in 4.9 seconds, a 0.4-second improvement.
Those who
tow can opt for the xDrive35d. It uses a revised 3.0-liter turbodiesel
six-cylinder developing 255 hp and 413 lb-ft of torque. All models come
with an eight-speed automatic transmission.
A lengthy list of
options and packages, including trick features like four-zone automatic
climate control, automatic soft-close doors, active LED headlights,
night vision and a full-color head-up display make the X5 one of the
sportiest luxury SUVs around. The M Sport package, for example, bundles
19-inch wheels, an aero body kit, sport seats and a snappier
transmission.
A full suite of advanced tech and safety features
includes a navigation system with 10.2-inch touchscreen, giving the X5 a
contemporary electronic edge. A new 40/20/40 split-folding rear seat
also makes for more flexible cargo arrangements.

the sDrive35i, the X5 is more expensive than the Land Rover LR4,
