BMW has just unveiled the third generation of its X5 SUV, visibly bigger, newer and more luxurious than ever before.
From the front, new design language shared with the 3 Series is evident. The headlights are larger and are connected to the big kidney grilles . For the first time on an X5, the bonnet opens without the grille,its edge giving a more muscular look as a result. Round, Nissan Juke style fog lights and Air Curtain blades round up the look of the F15 X5.
From start, there will be three engine options available, a 3.0-liter TwinPower Turbo inline-six for the X5 xDrive35i and the first rear-wheel drive version called the sDrive35i, a twin-turbo 4.4-liter V8 making 450 hp in the X5 xDrive50i and a 3-liter diesel for the xDrive35d. Later on, the first four-cylinder engine will be offer in the form of the X5 xDrive25d.
Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
