Aly Posted May 30, 2013 Report Share Posted May 30, 2013 (edited) The new BMW X5 is lighter and more efficient, plus it's now available as a two-wheel-drive model Official pictures and details have been released of the all-new BMW X5, which is not only available with a four-cylinder diesel engine for the first time, but will also be offered with a new two-wheel-drive option.On sale in the UK from 16 November, the new X5 takes an evolutionary approach to design, borrowing its profile from the old car, and a few design details from the rest of the BMW range. The headlights, for instance, flow in to the grille just as they do on the 3 Series, while the Air Curtain either side of the front bumper and Air Breather vents behind the front wheels are borrowed from the 4 Series Coupe concept.

momo Posted May 31, 2013 Report Share Posted May 31, 2013 Don't like the look of it.. And whats the point of a 2WD SUV? Surely you want it to be at least selectable 2WD/4WD? I like the current X5.. It looks good and sounds like it's ok off road. BUT - Range Rover would be my choice all day long! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rickzsingh Posted June 3, 2013 Report Share Posted June 3, 2013 If I had that sort've money would try and push for a Porsche Cayenne but think they are a lot more expensive then the X5s and Range rovers.. Cayenne -RR Vogue - X5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adrianc333 Posted June 8, 2013 Report Share Posted June 8, 2013 Don't like the look of it.. And whats the point of a 2WD SUV? Surely you want it to be at least selectable 2WD/4WD? Because mums nipping to Tesco don't need 4WD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

donfloyd Posted April 23, 2019 Report Share Posted April 23, 2019 Rear tailgates have been known to creak and might require a new latch to stop this. The rear-view camera (where fitted) can stop working and could also require a new unit to solve the problem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
