When the BMW X5 first appeared in 2000, it redefined the premium sport-utility vehicle segment and sent many competitors back to their drawing boards. This was BMW’s first light-duty truck that not only brought the newest in manufacturing and technology advances to consumers worldwide, it also introduced the “Sports Activity Vehicle®” concept that would later grow to include the 2004 X3, the second-generation X5 which was introduced for 2007 as well as the X6 Sports Activity Coupe.
The BMW SAV concept continues today and now includes the X5 xDrive35d, a diesel vehicle utilizing BMW Advanced Diesel with BluePerformance Technology, linking handling, performance and efficiency to the conventional attributes of practicality, versatility and off-road capability.
For 2010, the second-generation X5 returns with revised features to keep it abreast of the competition and builds upon its recently-launched technology and performance. The optional Navigation System now includes BMW’s 4th generation iDrive controller along with a high-resolution 8.8-inch screen and 80 GB media server for navigation data and music storage. In addition to onboard music storage with the optional navigation system, sound system enhancements include HD radio as standard equipment. Active Safety and convenience have both been enhanced with the include of a Top View perspective for the optional rear view camera as well as optional automatic high-beam headlights.
