The model
Read full reviewAll X5s are smooth, classy and luxurious SUVs. It's not quite as practical as the most spacious rivals out there but it's good enough where it counts, and where it really impresses is the quality of its lavish interior and superb infotainment system. The xDrive45e is one of the most impressive plug-in hybrids around.
The trim
See full equipmentThis version of the X5 gets bigger brakes and sporty looks, with more aggressive bumpers and 20in alloys on the outside, along with illuminated door kick panels and M Sport pedals and steering wheel on the inside. It's a popular choice that should make it easier to sell and have better resale values, which is why it's our pick.
The engine
See full engine specsThe same as the 30d but with the power cranked up to 335bhp for 0-62mph in 5.5sec. Fast, but not essential bearing in mind how strong the 30d feels.
