dThe BMW X5 has been a popular choice for families seeking luxury SUVs, and the latest model is no exception. It is a well-built, technologically advanced, and comfortable vehicle that can accommodate your family's needs. The plug-in hybrid version is particularly popular in Europe due to its environmental benefits and reduced tax burden.
In its mid-life update, the X5 xDrive50e has undergone significant upgrades, resulting in an increase of 95bhp compared to its predecessor. The electric motor has been boosted to 194bhp, and the battery capacity has been increased to 25.7kWh. The combination of the 3.0-litre straight-six petrol engine and the electric motor now produces an impressive 483bhp and 700Nm of torque.
The X5 xDrive50e's fuel economy has been claimed to be 353mpg, while the electric range is around 60-70 miles. However, during a test drive in winter conditions, it provided around 50 miles on a full charge.
The main drawback of the BMW X5 is its size and price, which can be a concern for some buyers. Nevertheless, if you're looking for a luxurious, spacious, and high-performing family SUV, the BMW X5 is definitely worth considering.
