2004 bmw x5 review this car review is specific to this model, not the actual vehicle for sale. Freshened styling and a new 4. 8is model. introductionothers have followed, but the bmw x5 invented a class. As bmw's 3 series defines the sport sedan, the x5 defines an expanding group of big, powerful suvs that shine for their on-pavement agility and lightning acceleration, with an emphasis on luxury appointments. Climb out of a truck-based luxury suv like the cadillac escalade, and the x5 feels as capable on the road as the big bmw 7 series sedan (even though it isn't). improvements for 2004 are more extensive than any since the x5 was introduced five years ago. And a new high-performance 4. 8is model has been added to the lineup. logic? The x5 is 2. 5 tons of speed, comfort and prestige. It's quicker away from traffic lights than most cars, and capable of nearly 150 mph, though we certainly don't recommend driving a vehicle this tall that fast. Its steering is precise and it's exceptionally stable at supra-legal speeds. Massive tires contribute to impressive cornering grip and stopping power. A big v8 delivers the ultimate x5 thrill, but it's also available with an outstanding six-cylinder. that trademark bmw twin-kidney grille indicates its owner is successful. It also indicates bmw's reputation for quality and driving excitement. Moreover, the x5 delivers most of the attributes that made suvs popular in the first place. It works well in foul weather and easily negotiates muddy trails. It looks tough and polished at the same time. now let's get back to logic. Bmw says the x5 is designed for all roads, meaning superhighways, graded gravel or logging trails. In fact, the x5 is not capable off road, not when measured against sport-utilities that are capable. Though it handles well for an suv, its weight and height simply won't allow it the quick transient response of a sport sedan or sport wagon in the same price range. Compared to other bmws, the x5 is not the ultimate driving machine, and its fuel mileage is poor in comparison. It also costs more than some comparably equipped, very good luxury suvs. for 2004, the x5's look has been freshened, with a redesigned front end, new taillights and new wheel designs. Mechanically, both manual and automatic transmissions have been upgraded to six-speeds, with a more powerful v8 and a new, more sophisticated all-wheel-drive system called xdrive. There's more standard equipment, including rain-sensing wipers and a power passenger seat in all models, and new options like heated rear seats on the six-cylinder x5. New for 2004 is bmw assist, a telematic system with automatic accident notification and other premium services. forget rational vs. While the 3. 0i and 4. 4i have added standard equipment and more technology for 2004, their prices reflect an increase of $1,445 and $2,245 respectively compared to 2003, keeping with bmw's trend toward some of the biggest prices increases in the auto industry this year. the x5 3. 0i is powered by bmw's classic 3. 0-liter inline-6 engine, producing 225 horsepower. Standard equipment includes adjustable power front seats with driver's position memory electronically tagged to the key, remote keyless entry, power windows that can be opened with the key fob, cruise control, cabin-air filtration, a universal garage door transmitter, 17-inch alloy wheels and a tow-hitch receiver. For 2004, the standard manual transmission has been upgraded to a six-speed, while the leatherette (vinyl) upholstery remains. the x5 4. 4i adds bmw's powerful 4. 4-liter v8 engine, which adds 33 horsepower this year for a total of 315, matched with a new six-speed automatic. The 4. 4i is now almost as powerful as last year's 4. 6is. The 4. 4i also adds dual-zone climate control with rear-seat adjustments, leather upholstery, self-leveling air suspension and 18-inch wheels. the new x5 4. 8is is an ultra high-performance model that features a 4. 8-liter v8 engine that produces 355-horsepower and 360 pounds-feet of torque, coupled with a six-speed steptronic automatic transmission. It comes with 20-inch w-rated performance tires (275/40 front and 315/35 in the rear). The moonroof, for example, can be ordered separately 1,059), but it's also included in the premium package, which also adds auto-dim mirrors, adjustable rear seat backs, lumbar support, an onboard computer and the bmw assist telematics package to the 4. 4i 2,500), plus leather to the 3. 0i 3,900). The sport package 2,500 for the 3. 0i, $1,600 for 4. 4i) includes a firmer sport suspension, sport steering wheel, 18-inch alloy wheels (for the 3. 0i), sport seats, black chrome exhaust and a titanium colored grilled. The cold weather package 750) includes heated front seats, ski bag and headlight washers. The rear climate package 600 for the 3. 0i, $400 for 4. 4i) brings rear privacy glass, rear side-window blinds and rear climate control adjustment for the 3. 0i. Popular stand alone options include a five-speed automatic transmission 1,275) and the bi-xenon headlamps 800) for the x5 3. 0i, and a premium stereo with 12 speakers, two subwoofers and digital signal processing 1,200). A retractable load floor 380) and satellite navigation 1800) are extra-cost options on all x5 models. Bmw assist 750) provides telematic collision notification, an sos button, roadside assistance, locator and concierge services. An annual subscription 240) must be paid after the first year. all x5s come with full-time all-wheel drive and dynamic stability control, which includes traction control, electronic brake proportioning, an electronic stability program, and hill descent control. passive safety was a major development goal for the x5, which can be ordered with no fewer than eight airbags. Each front-seat occupant gets a front airbag, a side thorax airbag and a curtain-style head protection airbag. Bmw's head protection system extends these curtains the full length of the cabin, protecting outside rear passengers as well. Rear-seat side impact airbags are optional 385). Moreover, the x5's unit-body has been design for maximum energy dissipation in heavy impacts. According to bmw, it performed better than any vehicle ever tested by the insurance institute for highway safety (iihs) in its 40-mph offset crash test, which simulates the most. walkaroundthe 2004 bmw x5 feature freshened styling cues, though no one is likely to mistake it for something other than the familiar x5. From the windshield forward, all of the sheet metal is new for 2004. Side by side with a 2003 x5, the changes for 2004 are noticeable. there's no question who builds this vehicle. The bmw x5 looks like a 5 series wagon on steroids, and is remarkably close to the wagon in overall size. From its kidney-shaped grille to its multi-segmented tail lights, the curvy x5 is all bimmer. The slope of the tailgate matches that on the 5 series wagon. The major difference is that the x5 is 10 inches taller than the 5 series wagon, which creates a key component of its sport-utility character. Large-diameter wheels with low-profile tires enhance its aggressive appearance. the new bmw x5 4. 8is sports a unique front air dam, body kit, and huge wheels and tires. truck-based suvs, such as the mercedes-benz m-class, are built with a separate body bolted onto a boxed ladder frame. The x5, however, uses a monocoque body shell like that of a regular sedan. This unit-body construction provides a much stiffer structure, which improves handling, reduces noise and allows better fit and finish, though many consider the design less rugged and durable. The x5 is not the first unit-body suv, and many more have followed. With a few notable exceptions (such as the jeep grand cherokee), unit-body suvs tend to be like the x5, with on-pavement performance taking precedence over off-road ability. interiorthe x5 has a great interior. Typically bmw, it's all business and no nonsense, but it's also very luxurious. The 3. 0i comes standard with leatherette (vinyl) upholstery, but leather is an option. The door handles have a nice brushed-aluminum finish, and the soft plastic surfaces feel more like leather. The switchgear is ergonomically well designed. Available steering wheel controls allow a number of adjustments, including climate, stereo and integrated phone without removing a hand from the wheel. despite the x5's high seats, many drivers will drop the bottom cushion down, and that can obscure much of the exterior from view, not to mention stuff located a few feet around it.

2001 bmw x5 review this car review is specific to this model, not the actual vehicle for sale. Bmw answers the trend with road-going performance. introductionoriginally called a 'sports activity vehicle,' the bmw x5 delivers superb handling and performance. It may be the best-handling suv on the road. It almost feels like an oversized rally car. Muddy trails are easily negotiable, though this isn't what we'd call a highly capable off-road vehicle. And cargo capacity isn't a strong point. lineuptwo models are available: 3. 0i 38,900) and 4. 4i 49,400). bmw launched the x5 for 2000 as one upscale model powered by a 4. 4-liter v8 engine mated to a 5-speed automatic steptronic transmission. for 2001, the 3. 0i was added with a 2. 8-liter six-cylinder engine. A 5-speed manual gearbox (zf type c) comes standard; bmw's 5-speed steptronic is optional. walkaroundthe x5 is immediately recognizable as a bmw. In fact it looks like a 540i wagon on steroids - and it is remarkably close in overall size. From the kidney-shaped grille to the tailgates, the curvy x5 is all bmw. The slope of the tailgate looks almost identical to that of the 5 series wagon. The major difference is that the x5 is 10 inches taller than the 5 series wagon. This increased ride height is the key element of making this vehicle more like a sport-utility. bmw's x5 is called a light-duty truck by the government. Most truck-based suvs, including the mercedes-benz m-class, are built with the body bolted onto a frame. The x5, however, uses a monocoque body shell like that of a regular sedan. This unit-body construction provides a much stiffer body shell, which improves handling, reduces noise and allows better fit and finish. The x5 is not the first monocoque suv; the lexus rx 300 and the jeep grand cherokee follow the same design concept. Because of the unit-body construction they share, the lexus rx 300 is the x5's closest competitor in terms of ride comfort and handling. the x5 rides on big-diameter 18-inch wheels with low-profile tires that lend an aggressive appearance, and even more aggressive 19-inch wheels are an option. interiorthe x5 is all bmw inside. The door handles have a nice brushed aluminum finish and the soft plastic surfaces somehow feel more like leather. X5 comes with a long list of standard features. The one we drove had an integrated navigation system that was a little confusing to master in the short time we had the vehicle. The seats are excellent and the ergonomics are good. Despite the x5's greater height, inside headroom is all but identical to that of the 5 series wagon, which is itself slightly better than that of the larger 7 series. surprisingly, the cargo carrying capacity is no better than that of the 540i sport wagon. That's not to say it's bad but don't expect the x5 to be a substitute for a minivan or suburban in the haulage business. A very sturdy rollaway cover that can be removed for a larger load carrying capacity covers the rear cargo area. The rear seats are split 40/60 and can be folded down to provide a flat surface. The height of the load floor looks high and it seems to take a bit more heft to load cargo; a 150-pound english mastiff accustomed to climbing into dozens of different suvs found the pitch too steep to climb up his ramp into the bmw. the rear hatch is split with a flip-up window and a tailgate similar in design to the range rover's. This can make the x5 a bit inconvenient at the airport. Reflectors on the top of the tailgate's door jam enhance safety when accessing gear at night. passive safety has been a major part of the development of the x5. It can be purchased with no less than eight airbags to protect occupants in a major crash. Each front seat occupant gets a front airbag, a side thorax airbag and a side head bag. An optional side thorax airbag is available for the two rear-seat occupants. The airbag system is essentially the same as in the 7 series; bmw claims its own crash tests indicate the x5 will obtain a five-star rating in the government's (nhtsa) crash tests. Bmw claims the x5 is safer than a 7 series and that it will set new safety standards for this class of vehicle. In november 2000, the insurance institute for highway safety rated the x5 as its 'best pick' among suvs for crashworthiness. driving impressionthe x5 4. 4i might be considered the bmw m5 of suvs. It will do everything the specially built amg mercedes ml55 will do, except win a drag race or be a mercedes. If the amg benz is for horsepower extremists, the x5 is still a power hitter-the sammy sosa to mark mcguire of suvs, maybe. mostly, the x5's handling is noticeably more stable and comfortable, with less twitching and head toss, making it more widely suitable. the x5 wants to be driven like a sports car. The five-speed steptronic transmission can be easily used like a stick, downshifting with a snick or two of the lever for turns, sometimes instead of braking. It's engaged by notching the lever to the left, which puts the transmission into sport mode, and the upshifts/downshifts are accomplished by a simple quick nudge of the lever forward or backward. not all manual-automatic transmissions lend themselves to practical or convenient use, as the lever action may be awkward or the engine's powerband doesn't care, but the x5 is made for it, and the execution is perfect. It's wonderful to use during passing on two-lanes, making that move safer and smoother. The oomphy power is seamless, with redline coming at 5800 rpm. on the freeway, the x5 changes lanes with the lightest of touch and with total precision. The tale of the tape might reveal some of its rock-steadiness. Compared to the mercedes ml430, the x5's track is one inch wider and it rides 2. 2 inches lower. it's the slow speeds where the x5 requires effort. The engine hardly lacks torque, yet it feels like it's working when the going is deliberately slow. This seat-of-the-pants feeling might well be skewed by the transmission mapping or ratios. More bothersome is the power steering, as it takes too much effort to turn the steering wheel at slow speeds. the brakes are appropriate to the price and function of the car. They're huge, they incorporate every electronic trick known to man, they're effortless to the touch, and they enable the x5 to stop as quickly and securely as the bmw 7 series luxury cars. there's no doubt bmw has achieved a hitherto unobtainable goal with the x5: it has managed to produce the smoothest riding and best handling suv on the market, surpassing that of the mercedes-benz m-class. Bmw says its test drivers have driven the x5 around racetracks at speeds close to that of the 328i sedan. This is probably true for experienced drivers, who know the limits of themselves and the vehicle's capability, but for ordinary drivers the x5 is a tall vehicle; it leans more going through corners than a sedan. x5's straight line and freeway manners are great. It feels stable; the steering is even better than in the 5 series and the ride is smooth. The v8 engine provides plenty of power, making it faster in the race away from traffic lights than most cars. This is a wonderful system for those who want an automatic with manual control. ( drove the 4. 4i.) the ride quality of the 3. 0i felt firm and bouncy. Running errands around town wasn't much fun with wife and dog. Suspension undulations and head toss seemed excessive. Clutch engagement is quick and the torque characteristics of the engine, a bit abrupt at throttle tip-in, make smooth, brisk takeoffs a challenge. And it wasn't easy to have good smooth drivin. summarywe have mixed feelings about the bmw x5. It's cargo capacity is no better than a bmw 5 series wagon. The height of the cargo area is much higher than the 5 series wagon and getting in and out is more difficult, so it's less practical than the 5 series wagon. Ride, handling and overall performance are not as good as the 5 series wagon. Front Airbag✔ Navigation System
