BMW X5 Specs by Generation
By CarWhere Research · Updated
CarWhere lists 33 US-market BMW X5 trims across 4 chassis codes, from the E53 (2000–2006) to the G05 (2019–2026), with engine code, power, torque, 0–60, weight and launch MSRP. The G05 makes 335–617 hp (sDrive40i to X5 M Competition); quickest BMW-claimed 0–60 is 3.7 s.
G05 X5 (2019–2026) specs
Chassis codes: G05 sav · F95 sav (x5 m) · LCI (facelift) from the 2024 model year
What changed in the G05
The fourth X5 moved to the B58 inline-6 (xDrive40i, later sDrive40i) and N63 V8 (xDrive50i, then the 523 hp M50i from 2020), with the xDrive45e plug-in hybrid arriving for 2021. The 2024 facelift added 48V mild-hybrid assist (40i up to 375 hp), replaced the M50i with the M60i, and swapped the 45e for the stronger xDrive50e. The F95 X5 M and X5 M Competition arrived for 2020; from 2024 only the Competition was offered. BMW has announced a new-generation X5 for the 2027 model year, so 2026 is treated as the last G05 year.
