Overview & Reviews
A new twin-turbo diesel engine debuts on the 2009 BMW X5, which promises robust power and enhanced fuel economy. Optional and standard equipment has been adjusted throughout the X5 lineup, as have the trim level names.
- Nimble handling, powerful engines, luxurious and comfortable interior, huge list of features, excellent iPod interface.
- Ride is on the firm side for some, munchkin-sized third-row seat, hefty price, frustrating iDrive interface.

Its not a 330i but... - 2009 BMW X5
By PNC - January 25 - 7:46 pmWent from a 2001 BMW X5 to a BMW 330i and now back to a 2009 X5. Needed the X5 to pull a boat, which it does with ease. The 2009 is much improved over the 2001 in terms of build quality. The 2001 X5 did have mechanical issues. I do miss the handling of the 330i but for a SUV, the 2009 X5 is as close as it gets!
