BMW X5 Change Vehicle

"No other vehicles can match its handling in severe snow, ice or rain ."

"It is the best handling and accelerating SUV I have ever driven."

"My X5 is diesel powered with a sports package. It handles very well and has good acceleration for such a large heavy vehicle. The fuel mileage is good, especially around town where is averages about 21 mpg"

"Extremely fast and responsive. Handling is superb."

"Car instantly responds when called upon to accelerate to pass or merge."

"Very solid"

"It accelerates quickly but it could be smoother. I find it slightly jerky. I also find the brakes a bit too touchy."

"Accelerates well for a large vehicle. We have the diesel engine to there is plenty of torque."

"Excellent acceleration. It has a turbo V6 that feels like a V8. The ride and handling feels like a smaller sports car and not like an SUV."

"Great handling and ride once we replaced the run flats with non-run flats. Very comfortable for long trips, though it needs more insulation as it is not particularly quiet and rain on the roof is very loud compared to any other car I've owned."

"Good handling and acceleration ride a little harsh otherwise very good."

"Quick for a large SUV. Handles curves very well and takes turns like a small 'lower' sports car."

"midlevel acceleration and mountain road handling"

"excellent acceleration while car remains under control. very good cornering on curvy roads. accelerates up steep hills w little hesitation."

"powerful engine with great sound, very comfortable ride. very reliable engine."

"Driving/handling performance"

"It's a diesel. Enough said."

"Drives great and less tiring on a trip."

"So much horsepower... very responsive"

"Great diesel SUV"

"Of all the vehicles I have driven this continues to amaze me in driving performance and handeling"

"Navigation system out of date and expensive to update"

"Blows the doors off of my old Lexus RX330. Much better handling too."

"Diesel has effortless acceleration."

"handles like a sports car. Diesel engine has great fuel economy."

"The X5 has great acceleration and handling. I can maneuver easily in and out of traffic. Getting on the freeway is easy. It feels like it hugs for road for its size."

"Acceleration is simply outstanding, better than virtually any vehicle, including sports cars. Handling is stunning considering the mass of this thing."

"Incredible power, acceleration, performance."

"stiff suspension, but this was expected and is appreciated for my sprite driving style. Turbo-lag is a bit annoying."

"Very good handling, very strong accelration. I purchased this car because of it's sporty feel and handling. Very good braking as well."

"Irratic noise of the A/C even though it doesn't cool well and the automatic mode doesn't work well at all. Very frustrating to manually adjust all the time. Plus once in a while, a loud fan noise comes out and we must turn down to get rid of it."

"GOOD: This vehicle has FULLY adjustable seats and settings allowing you to literally wrap the seats around you (like a glove) giving ultimate comfort. BAD: Exterior noise and smells could be reduced more. My previous Lexus did a much better job of this."

"The seats are extremely comfortable. You can drive long distances or be stuck in LA traffic and still be comfortable without back pain or leg pain..."

"The seats are best I ever experienced. It is like sitting in your best chair/recliner in your home."

"Seats are excellent... handling outstanding... house level inside good use some improving... live heating by purrr, but don't want to hear it over my music"

"Very solid car"

"Seats are great for long rides. Responds like a sports car for handling curves and accident avoidance."

"Great ride quality and comfortable seats for longer trips."

"the seats are large and can be adjusted to make them comfortable for almost anyone"

"Very comfortable and high quality."

"AT MY AGE (78) I would like a little softer ride. I love the diesel power"

"Lots of positions/ways to adjust the seats, well insulated for sound,"

"Climate control is not good. Must manually adjust temperature for driver and passenger separately. Adjustment is between warm and cool. If I forget to adjust this the automatic temperature control does not have the necessary authority."

"+++highly adjustable and supportive seats, ++comfort access soft closing doors, stiff suspension, but this was expected and appreciated for spirited handling."

"Climate control doesn't work well for Texas heat and the 4-zone acts like one in the front and must be manually overridden for comfort since the fan doesn't adjust as expected when the set temperature is changed."

"Seats are very comfortable."

"Seats not adjustable enough"

"The seats wrap around you when the engine starts which I find very comfortable. The x5 handles extremely well and even better in the winter snow and ice conditions."

"Great seats, quiet secure ride. Plenty of power."

"Climate control system very complicated. Other cars i just set the temp and the car does the rest of the work."

"Air conditioning could be a lot colder, not sufficient for the car"

"Maintenance is not expensive or as often as less luxurious brands. Fuel economy is great for the size and weight of the vehicle."

"Bad - repeated drivetrain issues the dealer said they fixed but would reappear in a couple of weeks"

"Car purchased virtually fully loaded. Wanted a diesel and at the time of purchase BMW was offering various incentives. We saved roughly $6k off the sticker price."
