2025 BMW X5 xDrive40i M Sport G05 LCI Auto AWD

This 2025 BMW X5 xDrive40i M Sport combines the elevated driving position and everyday practicality of a premium SUV with the road-focused character associated with BMW's M Sport specification. Presented as a demo vehicle with 4,747 km, it pairs a 3.0-litre turbocharged petrol six-cylinder engine with an eight-speed sports automatic transmission and constant xDrive all-wheel drive.

The X5's appeal lies in its ability to cover very different types of driving without feeling compromised. Its five-seat cabin and wagon body provide useful space for passengers and luggage, while the 650-litre minimum load area can expand to 1,870 litres when maximum carrying capacity is required. Five doors, comfort access and a hands-free boot further support convenient day-to-day use.

Power comes from BMW's B58B30M2 engine, producing 280kW and 520Nm. The turbocharged inline-six is matched to an eight-speed Steptronic sports automatic transmission, with drive sent through the xDrive constant all-wheel-drive system. Adaptive M Suspension and M Sport brakes add hardware intended to complement the vehicle's more dynamic specification, while selectable drive modes allow the driver to tailor the vehicle's responses to changing conditions.

Visually, the X5 is finished in Black Sapphire and equipped with the M Sport package, including M-specific aerodynamic detailing, a high-gloss Shadow Line treatment, M leather steering wheel and anthracite headliner. The enhancement package adds 22-inch M light-alloy double-spoke 742 M bi-colour wheels and CraftedClarity glass detailing for selected interior elements. A panoramic glass roof brings additional light into the cabin, while Iconic Glow kidney grille lighting and adaptive LED headlights give the front end a distinctive presence.

The interior is trimmed in Verino Black and includes electrically adjustable front sport seats with memory, lumbar support and heating. Comfort-focused equipment includes dual-zone automatic climate control, ambient lighting, velour floor mats and a luggage-compartment net. The cabin also features a BMW Live Cockpit Professional interface, personal eSIM, DAB+ digital radio, wireless charging storage and a Harman Kardon surround sound system, creating a well-equipped environment for longer journeys as well as routine travel.

Driver assistance technology is extensive. Driving Assistant Professional, Active Guard, adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping assistance, lane-departure warning, road-sign recognition and brake assist are listed among the vehicle's systems. Parking Assistant Professional, automatic parking assistance and an integrated dash camera are designed to reduce the effort involved in manoeuvring and monitoring the vehicle in busy surroundings. Intelligent emergency calling, an alarm system, anti-theft security and Active Pedestrian Protection add further safety and security support.

With a listed combined fuel consumption figure of 9.3L/100km, the X5 remains a substantial petrol SUV while offering strong output and a broad range of comfort, connectivity and assistance features. Its 2,700kg braked towing capacity and 650-litre load space also give it useful carrying capability, subject to the relevant towing equipment and conditions.
