The 2018 BMW X5 M is a performance variant of the third-generation X5, which is celebrated for its blend of luxury, utility, and driving dynamics. Under the hood lies a twin-turbocharged 4.4-liter V8 powerhouse pushing out an impressive 567 horsepower and 553 pound-feet of torque, mated with an 8-speed automatic transmission transferring power to all four wheels via BMW's xDrive all-wheel-drive system. This engineering feat enables the X5 M to perform a dash from 0 to 60 mph in just 4 seconds. The SUV comes in a single, well-equipped trim that boasts features like adaptive LED headlights, automatic high beam control, and keyless ignition and entry. Luxurious and high-tech, the interior is adorned with Merino leather upholstery, a panoramic sunroof and a 10.2-inch iDrive infotainment system incorporating complete smartphone integration with Apple CarPlay and a 16-speaker Harman Kardon surround-sound audio system. BMW supports safety with features like rearview camera, front and rear parking sensors, and advanced driving aids including blind-spot monitoring, lane departure warning, forward collision warning with pedestrian detection, and automatic emergency braking.
