The 2024 BMW X5 comes as a perfect competitor to the Porsche Cayenne and the new Genesis GV80. The new X5 features a modern design that offers a lavish, mystique, and stunning driving experience. The new generation of X5 resembles the design characteristics of the X2 but offers more refined and fun driving. The company still offers a trio of powertrain options starting from a smooth 375-hp six-cylinder, a 483-hp PHEV to a grumpy 523-hp V8. BMW offers loads of advanced tech with the new SUV and offers plenty of tech-rich features that will blow your mind. The car’s approach to luxury is neat and offers a smooth and effortless ride. Sure the Cayenne offers more athleticism and sheer driving, but the new BMW X5 will cater to anything you’ll throw at it.
