Over the years, the BMW X5 has significantly evolved, growing in size, technology, and refinement. The 2019 BMW X5 xDrive40i, part of the fourth generation (G05), exemplifies, offering a blend of performance, technology, and luxury in a spacious and versatile SUV. Refinement doesn't necessarily mean BMW re-invented the wheel with this model. Instead, it simply set out to make an improved version of the last year's model. Before exploring everything else, let's start by looking under the hood.
The 2019 BMW X5 xDrive40i is powered by a 3.0-liter inline-six that makes 335 horsepower and 330 lb.ft. It’s paired with an 8-speed torque converter automatic transmission, which might not be as good as its DCT variant, but it still makes up for an engaging driving experience. 0-60 mph takes around 4.3 seconds, half a second slower than the X5 xDrive50i, but the top speed is electronically limited to an identical figure, 155 mph. There’s a weight difference though, with the X5 xDrive40i being lighter, tipping the scales at roughly 5,000 pounds.
As a mid-size SUV, the 2019 BMW X5 xDrive40i has a more luxurious and comfortable interior than the X3. It has high-quality and soft leather upholstery for the seats, door panels, and dashboard. Complementing the leather is a rich distribution of premium touches that will likely last as long as the car. Amenities are plentiful, with the front and second row having independent AC and the front seats incorporating heating, electric multi-adjustability, and a memory function. For units with third-row seating, the occupants will just have to share second-row amenities. Moving further back, the trunk is adequately spacious for an SUV of its class, and should you need more cargo area, the second row is foldable like the third.
The 2019 BMW X5 xDrive40i was unchanged from the previous model year. It only looks different with the optional M-sport package, which adds slightly aggressive styling, such as on the front bumper, and equipment, such as larger M-specific wheels. Without the package, it looks like your everyday BMW SUV with the quintessential BMW design cues that give it identity among other SUVs in its class.
BMW SUVs are expansively equipped with tech, and despite not getting the complete package, the 2019 BMW X5 xDrive40i is no exception. On the driver’s side, there’s a 12.3-inch digital cluster display for all your driving data. One of its biggest perks is that it's highly customizable depending on the driving mode or personal preferences. To its right, there’s a similarly sized infotainment touchscreen display with high-quality graphics running on BMW’s iDrive 7.0 system, which features navigation, SiriusXM, real-time traffic display, roadside assistance access, screen mirroring, Bluetooth connectivity, and more. Apple CarPlay was available, but it was a subscription-based feature, so there’s a high chance you’ll have to pay for it.
If you’re looking to buy a 2019 BMW X5 xDrive40i, expect to spend between $25,000 and just slightly north of $30,000 depending on the car’s mileage, seller location, and factory options as the main determining factors.
