It automatically shuts off if your door is open.

My car is great I have never had any issues with it. It is great for me and my husband, but also will be great for a small family!! We travel a lot in it and it still does great.

Clayton B

That all parts under the hood are well working and reliable.

I like the looks of my vehicle. I like its size. I like the all wheel drive. I like the wheels on my vehicle.

Grace A

Love the many features that the car comes with!

I love all the features that the car comes with. I really enjoy that they speed is displayed in the windshield above the steering wheel. The lane assist is awesome as well! I also really enjoy the fact that my car came with two keys, my boyfriend and I each have a key and the car knows the details of the seat and radio system based on the key.

Yeah very good and very uncomfortable.

My car is fine, I haven't had any major problems yet and the inside of the car is very comfortable and peaceful it is convenient to go very far and there is no problem and the problem is not seen and the whole family can go far together and it is very beneficial for me after buying the car.

BMW x5 diesel is a great hauler!

Car drives great, diesel has great gas mileage and is great towing up to 7500 lbs. Only issue is that oil changes are expensive as are other repairs and parts when car comes off warranty. Recommend this to all people who want luxury daily driving vehicle with capacity to tow.

Sam Y

It is an ultimate driving machine that satisfies all my senses.

Fast and s**y with all the right curves. I really can't think of anything that I dislike.

William W

When it works there's a lot of room to move around.

The construction of the vehicle is of high quality. The horsepower is generous. The front legroom is good. The ability to interface with phones could be better.

rosana B

My vehicle has the m edition that comes with turbo and very nicest interior.

Very nice, very comfortable and smooth with driving it. The back seats are very comfortable that it feels like they rock you when you back there you can fall asleep like a baby. I love it on the curves because it smoother you do not ever have to brake.

Negative Owner Reviews

Michelle W

It is fully loaded with navigation Bluetooth the tires are run flat.

The parts are extremely expensive.. The tires are not good in bad weather.. Other than that it is a decent truck.

Supercar. Amazing speed and controlling. Look like a lion.

My car is a great car. I always like my car. My family member also like it very much. Other people also like my car. The rating of my car is great. I like to go long drive with my family by this car. This car is very comfortable. On the long run it running as a lion. I always feel very happy when I drive it. I always do enjoy drive my car.

Carol H on March 30, 2021

I like the back up camera on the car. Also the seats are very comfortable. It is hard to see out of the passenger window when backing up or changing lanes. Large blind spot. Also the front window is very large so a standard window shade doesn't fit. GSP isn't very good.

It is very comfortable to drive. The steering is easy and the ride is not bumpy.

Pros from Owners

Michael K.

Plush interior with all the bells and whistles, powerful and fast. Very roomy and spacious, plus there is lots of room to carry things as well. The ride is smooth and handling is typical BMW standards.

Nina P.

Great pick up, great style, comfortable yet sporty ride, love the look of the outside & interior, love the messaging that can be seen in the front windshield while driving, love the heated seats & heated steering wheel.

Melissa P.

The X5 is the perfect size SUV for a first time SUV owner. It is comfortable to drive, spacious enough to lug a car seat and stroller in and out quickly and it is luxurious. Highly recommend the upgraded wheel package.

Cons from Owners

Michael K.

There is a blind side that you have to be careful about. The gas mileage is very poor. There is so much electronics that when something goes wrong it has to be taken back to the dealership which is very expensive to fix.

Nina P.

I cannot think of any cons. This is our second X5 so obviously we are very happy with them. I do have problems with the windshield wipers sometimes - not clearing the window efficiently. Also, the radio does not have very good projection on the passenger side.

Melissa P.

I have had issues with my heads up displays not always working. Sometimes I get in and it does not work. I'll go to turn it on and it works. Other times I click the checkbox and it does nothing. There's no real diagnosis per the forums I have researched.
