Almost 20 years later and the BMW X5 is still a leader in its segment

Age is not kind to all vehicles. As some get older they get outdated and lackluster. Thankfully, that's not the case with the BMW X5- a model that keeps getting better each year! Here at Century BMW the BMW X5 is the most popular of the X-Series lineup. With seating for five or seven passengers, the X5 is versatile SAV (sport activity vehicle) for shoppers who want to get around in style.

Consider this luxury model a trifecta. Whether you buy or lease your BMW X5, you'll get an SAV that has great performance, refined features, and intuitive technology. It really is the full package.

Engine Lineup

You cannot talk about a BMW without touching on performance. The X5 lineup has four engines.

There's also a 3.0L 35d diesel option with 255 horsepower (and an impressive 413 lb-ft torque), and fuel-conscious drivers can get the 2.0L 40e engine with 308 horsepower that can go back and forth between all-gas, all-electric, or a mix of both.

Unapologetic Refinement

BMW makes sure their drivers and passengers are spoiled. Shoppers can choose between real wood trim for a luxurious meets rustic look or brushed metal if they prefer the minimalist route. The entry-trims have SensaTec seating covers that are easy to clean and still look great, but as you work your way up there's genuine leather that's deliciously supple. 

Within the X5 series you can pick from the Luxury, xLine, or M sport equipment groups to further differentiate the SAV with select wheel designs that really stand out, color schemes, and tuned suspensions.

Intuitive Technology

There's no shame in admitting you don't have the greatest sense of direction because BMW has an excellent voice-activated navigation system via the iDrive 6.0 platform. It can understand natural language and tones when you provide directions or want to change the radio station. Other tech amenities we love includes a wireless charging pad so you don't clutter up the interior with cords and a heads-up display that helps you keep your eyes on the road by providing pertinent information on the windshield.
