2017 BMW X5 Review - Bulky But Very Capable - The first generation X5 was a benchmark model which set the precedent for big SUVs. It proved a huge sales success despite being a fairly agricultural looking thing. BMW now has a line-up of four extra SUV models - the X1, X3, X4 and X6.

The current X5 is now in its third generation and while impressive, continues to grow in size, making the smaller X3 the vehicle of choice for those wanting something more driver-focussed.

There are plenty of power options to choose from, with even a hybrid now being offered. The six-cylinder diesels offer excellent levels of power and economy and the M50d is fantastically quick with its three turbos. The X5M offers up an impressive 575bhp. Dynamically the X5 has fallen behind its rivals, the ride isn’t silky smooth and the steering feel is too numb.

There’s a wider choice of engines than trims, as you can only have your BMW X5 in either SE or M Sport specifications. The rear-drive sDrive25d SE with the regular automatic box represents entry point to X5 ownership, starting from £44,575 – almost £13,000 more than the base X3, clearly differentiating the models. Top dog is the £65,525 xDrive50i M Sport, with the M50d close behind at £65,240.

As it is a large, luxury SUV, items such as leather trim, satnav (on a 10.2-inch screen controlled by the absolutely superb iDrive system) and split-zone climate control are all standard fit on SEs, while M Sport models add the interior and exterior styling themes as well as the Sport auto gearbox.
