To remain up to expectations of the car buyers is no way an easy task. To coop with the ever increasing demands of customers and meet challenges of rivals continuously trying to grab top position of BMW the engineers have been making steady efforts. Third generation BMW X5 is comfortable, have range of fuel efficient diesel engines and superb interior.
The initial response from the market was great and the closest rival was beaten. The latest model of the car is not lot different from the previous one but interior has become one of the finest in this class. It is spacious too and can allow traveling of seven persons if boot space is compromised.
In spite of all the positives about this model it is no longer a standard setting product of this class. From the beginning it focused more on car like driving experience than off road excellence and that was one of the major reasons behind its immediate success.
All models of crossovers and SUVs from X1 to X6 carryout the same phenomenon of providing an ease of feel to the driver while handling and driving. This first model of latest generation was introduced four years back and to differentiate from the predecessor you must have a close look.
Most modern technology has made it high performance SUV. It has five doors like most of the automobiles of this genre. The range of engines starts with diesel powerhouse four cylinders capable of 218bhp and either the peculiar rear wheel or four wheel drive options.
Rest of the engines are offer 4WD like 30d having capacity of producing 258bhp and 40d that has similar engine but with greater power of 313bhp. The most powerful among them is 50d six-cylinder engine that has enormous force of 381bhp.
Sporty handling was peculiar to BMW SUV but now the driving dynamics have been changed, buyers are expecting sharp handling and off road drivability with refinement. Suspension of the vehicle is good but not easy to manage like other vehicles of this class.
Comfort ride mode is most desirous and it changes your feel altogether about riding experience that is quite sportier otherwise. Carbon emission is well controlled so you do not need to be worry about environment while using it. Best of the engines is 40d because of its performance and fuel efficiency.
The petrol machines are fuel thirsty and have standard eight speed automatic speed transmissions. Only two trim levels are offered to the buyers. Price beginning from 47000 and gets almost double till reaches the most expensive in the range. Handling features of the contenders in this class are superior but you can not ignore this vehicle just because of one factor.
