A new 3.0L I-6 has 260-bhp, while the 4.8L V-8 churns out 350-bhp/350 lb.-ft. Both engines are mated to a 6-speed SteptronicĀ® automatic. The longer chassis allows room for an optional 3rd row seat. All X5 models have xDriveĀ® AWD. Standard 18-inch alloy wheels can be replaced with 19 and 20-inch optional wheels.
