2021 BMW X5 xDrive40i M Sport G05 Auto AWD

This 2021 BMW X5 xDrive40i M Sport combines the elevated driving position and everyday practicality expected of a large SUV with the sharper design and dynamic focus of BMW's M Sport treatment. Finished in Alpine White with black Vernasca leather upholstery, it presents a clean, purposeful specification that suits both urban use and longer-distance travel.

Power comes from a 3.0-litre turbocharged petrol engine producing 250kW and 450Nm, paired with an eight-speed Sports Automatic transmission. BMW's xDrive constant all-wheel-drive system is designed to provide consistent traction across changing road surfaces, while the listed Adaptive M Suspension gives the chassis greater scope to balance comfort with controlled body movement. The vehicle's 9.2L/100km combined fuel-consumption figure provides useful context for its performance-oriented six-cylinder drivetrain.

The M Sport package gives the X5 a more athletic visual character, with an M Aerodynamics package, M Sport brakes, Shadow Line exterior details, high-gloss black roof rails and 20-inch M light-alloy wheels fitted with run-flat tyres. These elements add presence without compromising the model's practical SUV proportions. A panoramic glass roof brings extra light into the cabin and enhances the sense of space for occupants.

Inside, the black leather sport seats feature electric adjustment and memory functionality, while heated front seats add comfort in cooler conditions. The M leather steering wheel, Sensatec instrument panel, anthracite headliner and Fine-wood trim create a cabin with a clear premium focus. Comfort access, ambient lighting, dual-zone automatic climate control, auto-dimming mirrors and velour floor mats further support convenient daily use.

Technology is centred on BMW Live Cockpit Professional, with wireless device charging, Bluetooth connectivity, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto listed among the vehicle's equipment. The BMW Head-Up Display can help keep key information within the driver's line of sight, while the DAB+ tuner and HiFi loudspeaker system provide additional entertainment options. Telephony, ConnectedDrive services and the Connected Package Professional extend the vehicle's communications functionality.

Driver assistance equipment includes Driving Assistant Professional, adaptive cruise control, lane keeping assistance, lane departure warning, road sign recognition and brake assist. Parking Assistant Plus is complemented by automatic parking assistance, helping make the X5 easier to position in tighter surroundings. Adaptive LED headlights and LED fog lights contribute to visibility, while Active Protection and intelligent emergency calling add further layers of safety support.

With five doors, five seats and up to 1,870 litres of listed load capacity with the rear seats folded, the X5 offers useful flexibility beyond its performance credentials. The vehicle is also listed with preparation for a tow bar and a braked towing capacity of 2,700kg, although any towing equipment and final suitability should be confirmed with the seller.
