BMW X5

The BMW X5 is an SUV that revolutionized the market. As one of the first crossovers to gain significant traction on the market, it ushered in a new era for sporty, off-road luxury vehicles.

BMW customers have always loved the X5 model, and that remains true today. For 2023, however, the model will receive a 48V plug-in hybrid drive system as well as exterior and interior updates to bring it up to date with current trends in the automobile industry.

Powertrains: From a robust base engine to the powerful twin-turbo V-8, the 2023 BMW X5 lineup offers plenty of choices for drivers seeking more out of their big SUV. The base engine gets an EPA estimate of 21 mpg in the city and 26 mpg on the highway with rear-wheel drive; all-wheel drive models receive slightly lower estimates at 17 mpg city and 22 mpg highway.

Technology: The X5's cabin boasts dual 12.3-inch displays for instrumentation and the iDrive infotainment interface. Additionally, it comes equipped with blind-spot monitoring, forward collision mitigation, lane departure warning, and rear cross-traffic alert.

Fuel Economy: The base engine of the X5 achieves an EPA-estimated 21 mph in city driving and 26 mpg on highway drives with rear-wheel drive. All-wheel-drive models reduce this figure by one mpg, while xDrive45e plug-in hybrid models offer up 50 mpg combined city/highway driving when using electric mode.
