Overview & Reviews

The BMW X5 gets significant powertrain changes for 2011. The base engine is BMW's latest 300-horsepower turbocharged six-cylinder, while the V8 gets upgraded to the same 4.4-liter twin-turbo V8 first seen in the 7 Series. A new eight-speed automatic becomes standard on all but the diesel-powered xDrive35d, which carries on unchanged. The 2011 X5 also gets a mild styling refresh and the wider iDrive screen now found throughout the BMW lineup.

• Athletic handling, potent and efficient engines, luxurious and comfortable interior, huge list of features, steadfast high-speed stability.

• Standard steering is stiff at low speeds, ride may be firm for some, hefty price.

  BMW are terrible especially if buying from Peoria - 2011 BMW X5
  By terrible - February 25 - 1:18 pm

  Very expensive to maintain, especially if you buy it from Peoria, il. Cheaters. Theyll stab you as they did it on me. Bmw looks good but, its not worth it, trust me, that was my second x5. I will never buy it again. It was 2011 and now we are in Feb. 2011 and I sold it finally. Hate bmw and hate bmw Peoria , illinois.
