The 2023 BMW X5 is a midsize luxury SUV with a remarkably stylish exterior and engine power to match. With its sleek and refined appearance, spacious cargo area, optional plug-in hybrid powertrain, and potential acceleration of 0 to 60 in 3.9 seconds, this elegant SUV really does have it all. The following are five of the features that are making the 2023 X5 one of the most desirable SUVs on the market.
Extensive Standard Safety Features
As you can expect for one of the finest family-friendly German SUV vehicles, the safety features that come as standard on the 2023 X5 are superb. The Frontal Collision Warning and City Collision Mitigation use cutting-edge sensors to constantly monitor distances from other vehicles and even pedestrians around you. If your car ever detects an imminent collision, it will warn you and apply its Automatic Emergency Braking if necessary.
Driving Assistance Professional Package
Every 2023 X5 comes also comes with a very advanced Adaptive Cruise Control system with the ability to effortlessly handle busy urban stop-and-go traffic on autopilot. And Traffic Jam Assist, Lane-Keeping Assist, and Side Collision Avoidance all help keep you on the straight and narrow on even the busiest of roads.
Strong Stopping Power
The most important safety feature on any vehicle is the brakes. And when it comes to stopping power, the X5 doesn’t disappoint.
With some of BMW’s finest disc brake technology on all four wheels as standard, the 2023 X5 has very reliable brakes. The X5 40i trim can slow from 70 to 0 in a distance of just 158 feet, which is one of the best braking performances in the world for the midsize luxury SUV class.
An Engine That Packs a Punch
The turbocharged inline V6 engine provides a healthy 335 horsepower, which is more than enough for most drivers. But if you like a little more oomph when you press the gas pedal, the twin-turbo V8 generates a splendid 523 horsepower and 553 pounds per foot of torque. This makes it one of the fastest midsize SUVs in town.
Plug-In Hybrid Engine Option
For the eco-friendly drivers among us, the plug-in hybrid powertrain option provides terrific fuel efficiency without sacrificing any power or performance. When chosen, a 3L TwinPower turbocharged V6 engine combines with an electric engine that provides 30 miles of driving on electric power alone: more than enough for everyday city trips and errands.
