Model Highlights
Looks like an X5, behaves like an M.
The BMW M has begun a new chapter with the all-new BMW X5 M. Featuring the first M Power V-8 Turbo, 555 hp and 500 lb-ft of torque, this powerful vehicle comes fully equipped with M Dynamic Performance Control for impressive handling. The power of M has a whole new look.
Comfort & Convenience
A welcome feature for both driver and front passenger in cooler weather. With the touch of a button, seat surfaces and backrests are heated to quickly radiate comfortable warmth in your choice of three settings.
Dual-glass-panel Panoramic Moonroof features fully electric slide and lift control. Includes trap release, comfort opening/closing function, a wind deflector to help keep the wind out and an electric sunshade to help shield cabin from excessive heat.
14-way power-adjustable front M sport seats include 4-way lumbar support; 2-way manual thigh support; and 3-setting driver's-seat memory system. Plus, with extended leather and trademark M stitching throughout, driver and passenger have a subtle reminder of M lineage at their fingertips.
With the route taken care of, you can concentrate on more important things, like enjoying every twist and turn along the way. Our onboard navigation system, controlled via iDrive, uses GPS satellites, a digital map and, where available, Real Time Traffic Information (RTTI) to guide you to your destination. Choose the fastest route, the shortest route or the one that avoids traffic. Traffic information is received by a separate radio tuner and then displayed on the glare-free monitor, mounted neatly in the dashboard. You don't even have to listen to a specific radio station, or have the radio on, to receive updates every few minutes.
Entertainment
HD Radio™ broadcasting is the new, digital standard for AM and FM radio stations. Across the United States, over 1300 AM/FM stations have upgraded to HD Radio technology, with over 600 of the FM stations also offering new, HD Radio-only "multicast" channels, vastly increasing programming choice. HD Radio stations are broadcast in crystal-clear digital sound and offer innovative data services, such as song artist and title scrolling across the screen. HD Radio is totally subscription free from your local AM and FM radio stations. (For further information on HD Radio receivers and to discover HD Radio AM/FM stations near you, go to www.HDRadio.com.)
This 16-speaker system is comprised of one center bass speaker sub-woofer below each front seat, one mid-range and one high-range speaker each in the door trim panels, one mid-range and one high-range speaker each in the D-pillar, one mid-range and one high-range speaker in the instrument panel, and a digital amplifier with nine channels that produce a 600-watt output. In short, our most powerful sound system guarantees unparalleled quality that’s nothing short of stunning.
Whether it's across town or across the country, your favorite drive will be even better with BMW iDrive, an innovative system linking your vehicle's Communications, Navigation and Entertainment functions. Make calls, listen to music, plot routes and find places to stop along the way - all with just one Controller. The more intuitive iDrive responds to your every need, even communicating with the On-Board Diagnostics computer to provide clear, detailed service information to drivers and technicians on its easy-to-view screen. The completely redesigned iDrive Controller features: more intuitive controls; and four direct-entry buttons for accessing radio, CD, telephone, and navigational features. iDrive is so simple to use, you won't have to take your eyes off the road.
Performance & Efficiency
Fully equipped with a little something we like to call 6-speed M Sports automatic transmission with paddle shifters, the BMW X5 M holds nothing back. The M Sports transmission offers three modes: Drive, Sport, and M Manual Shift. Drive runs like a normal automatic transmission, Sport allows for paddle shifting and maintains gears at the red line so long as the driver’s foot is on the pedal, while paddle shifting in M Manual mode locks the transmission in the selected gear and provides remarkably fast shift times across all six gears.
Adaptive Drive with Electronic Damping Control settings ensures a smooth ride, providing unsurpassed dynamics, comfort and safety. Body roll is reduced and steering is optimized.
Paired with the xDrive, all-wheel-drive system, M Dynamic Performance Control distributes power between the front and rear axle to maximize agility, improve traction and provide extreme cornering performance.
The first M Power V-8 Turbo comes from the M side of the family. Which means the all-new BMW X5 M is genetically blessed with an impressive 555-hp. The engine provides direct power pulses from the exhaust to the intake through the turbos, providing the high power output with virtually no turbo lag. Brace yourself.
Safety & Security
Bumper-to-bumper collisions most often occur when the driver behind you didn't realize how hard you were braking. Our Adaptive Brake Lights help eliminate that scenario by emitting a larger, brighter light with the more force you use. It allows those behind you to clearly see whether you're lightly tapping the brakes to slow down, or applying full force for a sudden stop.
BMW Assist provides you with a suite of safety, security and convenience services that add peace of mind, confidence and convenience throughout your day. BMW Assist intelligently integrates the driver, the vehicle and the environment as part of BMW's global ConnectedDrive initiative. Combining GPS location technology with hands-free wireless communication, BMW Assist connects you to a response specialist for help with almost everything, from an emergency situation to directions and traffic information. The BMW Assist Safety Plan is part of Ultimate Service, included at no cost for 4 years from your BMW's in-service date. Your BMW Assist system also includes Bluetooth® hands-free calling capability with speech recognition.
We call two-stage, front-impact airbags "Smart Airbags.” Why? With impact-measured deployment, they release in different patterns and levels depending on the crash. Front Head Protection Systems, Rollover Protection Systems, Active Knee Protection, and front passenger airbags, ensure you are just as safe as your passengers. In a crash, restricting passenger movement is just as important as airbag deployment. BMW automatic front safety-belt tensioners work in conjunction with the Smart Airbags to provide the right amount of tension at the right moment, helping to keep everyone secure.
So intuitive, it helps you see things you normally can't. Park Distance Control uses eight sensors—four in the front, four in the rear—to measure exactly how far you are from other vehicles and unseen objects when parking. As your bumper approaches a stationary object, the image on the iDrive screen changes and beeping becomes faster, turning into a constant tone when the distance is less than 12 inches.
