BMW X5 Change Vehicle

"Great torque and acceleration. Effortless cruising"

"It is a diesel and has great torque for acceleration. Handling is a breeze. Can drive it like a sports car."

"The car effortlessly responds to any request. For example if you're driving 65 and need to pass someone, there is no wind up needed. Just touch the gas a bit harder and suddenly you're going 80. Its so easy."

"Diesel anging great power Excellent driving handles very well. Drives like all BMW's (Have owned 6)"

"econo drive, auto hold so that you don't feel you are sliding backwards on a hill and if and when you do skid in the snow it is gentle ."

"Acceleration"

"Acceleration and handling for such a large SUV are good, even with the base engine"

"All aspects of the driving experience are exactly what I want in a car. Acceleration is strong and consistent from all conditions. Breaking is balanced and very predictable. Steering is good mix of easy to maneuver in tight spaces at slow speed and more firm at high. Could be slightly firmer at highway speeds."

"Beautifully build. Looked and feel very luxurious"

"Joy to drive for how it handles."

"Why are you repeating the same questions?"

"Excellent handling with very impressive acceleration and on road comfort"

"braking is quick and responsive"

"Smooth and very responsive -- excellent acceleraton"

"Acceleration is good and the road handling is typically BMW and the diesel get great fuel mileage."

"For an SUV, the vehicle has excellent acceleration and very and secure handling. I feel very secure and comfortable in this vehicle regardless of weather or road conditions."

"It fun to drive. It is the ultimate driving machine. Love it."

"the handling is very good in all conditions and handles more like a sedan than an suv"

"The acceleration and handling of the BMW X5 is very comfortable, reliable and enjoyable to drive."

"It handles as well as my 525i with better acceleration."

"Quick and confident. Somewhat overly firm ride (going over railway tracks can be jarring)."

"For a large SUV, the acceleration and handling is very good. It has plenty of power and the ride is relatively smooth for the vehicle size."

"The torque of this diesel is amazing! Quick off the line with a seamless transmission shifting gets you to 70 mph amazingly soon, even in comfort mode. Handling is extremely responsive. Such a better overall package than my 2008 ML 320 cdi. I get 33-35 mpg on interstates! ML 320 cdi!"

"Very quick and agile"

"For an suv this vehicle acceleration never lags and the handling is easy. Turning is never a struggle and parking is easy."

"Vehicle handles exceptionally well especially for its size and weight. Little body lean in turns; like riding on rails."

"Great handling. Very smooth acceleration and quick, smooth shifts. Comfort great over bumps and tracks. Sport mode has quick, agile handling."

"great acceleration very good handling"

"Great acceleration and handeling"

"Sport mode turns a truck into a quick sedan. Responsive steering, excellent cornering."

"Accelerates exceptionally well. Steering is light. Cabin noise is a dissipointment. Not the driving experience I expected having owned 2 BMWs with this being my 3rd. My wife is the primary driver and she is fine with the driving experience."

"Instant acceleration when needed in a driving situation. Unusually quick braking with no swerve or bucking."

"I do not like the fact that the engine turns off when I stop at a traffic light which causes some degree of hesitation."

"For a diesel vehicle the acceleration is outstanding to me. When you add the gas mileage it is a real plus. It handles as good as BMW advertises. My wife usually doesn't notice handling but she even acknowledges that the BMW handles really well."

"I have drive across the country three times in this car in the first year of ownership. Its power and acceleration are dazzling and hugely helpful in mountainous or heavily-trafficked highway driving. Handling is excellent, too, if just a touch less responsive and nimble than earlier X5 models."

"Diesel is great. Pulls like a dream, great mileage too."

"Great handling & performance especially when considering it's an SUV and its weight. The transmission shifts buttery smooth."

"Outstanding acceleration at any speed as a result of the torquey engine, super smooth 8 speed transmission and two turbos! Precise handling at any speed. I drive with shift points occurring at 2500 rpm and still get 29 mpg overall and diesel costs less than regular! Some wind noise over 60 mph."

"The diesel is a great engine. Lots of power & acceleration along with incredible fuel economy."

"It handles well with responsive excelerstion for a turbo 6"

"Everything works well. The car handles well for an SUV the acceleration is good considering the size."

"Safety and does parallel parking"

"incredible driving and handling. miles per gallon (diesel) is 32 over 2 years of mixed driving!!"

"Handling, Braking, Acceleration to 60mph and tremendous fuel economy while being quiet and having a nice firm, compliant ride are hallmarks of a fine BMW. The X5 has exceeded our expectations in all areas. It is a step above my last BMW 530i in all respects."

"The acceleration and handling of the X5 is exceptional for the size of the vehicle. The engine in mine is a diesel, when I have a need to accelerate there is no hesitation what so ever, it is smooth, quick and handles well."

"Diesel engine: Torque & MPG"

"The acceleration is very smooth and quick for a larger vehicle. The engine does not seem to struggle at all."

"For an SUV of this size, it handles and accelerates very well. Better than any other that I tested in 2015."

"Drives great and has a great turning radius"

"It's surprisingly bad for driving in snow. Otherwise it's competent but unexciting to drive."

"With the V8 it has great acceleration and has always delivered when we needed to tow a trailer."

"Our X5 has amazing acceleration-we have the V8 and 430 HP. We leave everyone else behind at the stop lights! And the handling is wonderful. BMW have great handling-I always miss their handling when I drive any other car make."

"excellent ride and power. With sport setting it handles like a much more powerful car/suv"

"The car drives very well and has excellent acceleration if you need it."

"X5's interior is very well organized and the front seats are very comfortable even for a 10-hour long drive. Sound insulation is pretty good, and the ride is very smooth. It constantly gives enough road feedback."

"Smooth handling and great acceleration. Love that the front seats are highly adjustable. Very little road noise although what there is comes from the very wide factory tires. Lots of little things are irritating however: rattles and bits that come loose. Currently a loose screw rattling back and forth somewhere beneath the center console."

"It has very comfortable seating."

"quiet ride"

"For an SUV the overall comfort is amazingly comfortable, very little noise level. The ride is a stiffer than a car as expected. Only downside is the leather seating is slippery than my 540i."

"Multiple positions available for proper driving positions. Heated and cooled seating. Soft Leather."

"Poor air conditioning. takes a long time to cool interior on a hot day and overall cooling is quite poor. Everything else about the car's comfort is excellent"

"This model is significantly more comfortable than previous models."

"Comfortable multi-contour memory seats for driver and front passenger. quiet, solid ride for a large SUV."

"Seats nicely hold you in place and have remained firm. The vehicle is exceptionally quiet and handles rough roads well."

"We LOVE the comfort of the X5, especially the seats, and then especially the front seats!! They have so many settings, and are just wonderful. And I got the nice expensive leather, and it is worth it. So nice and soft and comfortable. The ride of the X5 is great also-I had an older X5 from 2003, and this wasn't always the best ride especially in lower gears. But our new X5's ride is very good, and love sitting up high. Noise is fine."

"The seats are amazing. I have a very bad, painful back and I purchased the upgraded comfort seats and I am always amazed at how comfortable they are."

"Seat adjustments are excellent, very little road noise. Great handling and smooth ride"

"The fuel mileage is so good that on long trips the seats, ride and noise could be a problem but eh X5 is smooth and quiet. the Seat upgrade provides excellent back support."

"for an suv the ride is amazing and the seats are most comfortable and supportive. the car is great in heavy snow conditions."

"Absolutely stellar comfort in terms of seating and a forgiving but compliant ride."

"very quiet smooth ride"

"Exceptional comfort and very quiet interior"

"Outstanding seat comfort. Minimum noise. Smooth ride, outstanding acceleration and braking."

"Driver seat is very comfortable for long and short drives, easy entry and exit, driving position is great for visibility and control, ride quality is great balance or performance and comfort. Small rattles are common in BMW in my experience but once found and corrected tend not to come back."

"-Great diesel torque/MPG -MC Seats are exceptional"

"Run flat tires cause the ride to be stiffer than I would like"

"Ordered it with top of the line napa leather seats that have adjustable thigh support as well as being ventilated and heated. A comfortable cocoon in any season!"

"The seats comfort are amazing in the X5. We just finished an 8 hour trip one way, and then back over a 72 hour period, ie 8 hour straight down to MO, and a couple of days back to IL. You just did not feel like you were in a car that long. A great ride obviously helped."

"This model is the most comfortable BMW that has ever produced. Having owned a succession of X-5's in the past, this is without a doubt the most comfortable ride they have ever had in the X5."

"Msport seats are too hard. I've owned lots of BMWs and they all have had sport seats but these in the X5 are hard and not as comfy as I had hoped"

"I wish I could have order the comfort seats but was restricted because I needed the step rail and this cancelled the comfort seat package"

"The seats are very comfortable. I am shorter than average and I can adjust the seat so it is comfortable to me. The memory setting for the seats is a great feature. You can adjust the drive style to comfort or sport. For long drives the car is so comfy and quiet."

"The seats and the ride of this car are not comfortable at all. The seats are too hard and will not adjust to a more comfortable texture."

"Bit too much road noise for a car of this price range."

"Seats, Noise insulation are stand out"

"The car is a dream to drive. We recently helped our son move to Atlanta from the Tampa Bay Area. We drove to Atlanta on Saturday and returned on Sunday, towing a fully loaded 20 foot trailer 470 miles to Atlanta and an empty trailer home. Unlike my past SUV's I hardly felt the trailer. The weather that weekend was above 90 and we hit a couple of sever storms on the way up. The ride was smooth and quiet. When we arrived I was not fatigued at all by the experience."

"The X5 is very comfortable and quiet. The ride is smooth for an SUV."

"We love the comfort of our X5 seats-they are the best! And what to judge other car seats on. The ride is wonderful in the X5-so improved from prior years X5, that we had from several years ago. And the noise is minimal. And the stereo system is great."

"Seats are a bit hard and they curve up on the edges that are a bit uncomfortable"

"The X5 is our primary road car and is very comfortable on the highway. Quiet and decent highway mileage."

"Seats are extremely comfortable for short and long trips."

"The front seats in the X-5 are not comfortable. On a long journey you have to constantly shift yourself to find the right support."

"Comfortable on long trips. Cooling seats a plus. Quiet interior. Visibility is excellent."

"THE X% HAS MET OR EXCEEDED MY EXPECTATIONS. IT DRIVES WELL. IT IS COMFORTABLE. I HAVE HAD NO ISSUES WITH ANY OF ITS SYSTEM. THE ACCIDENT AVOIDENCE SYSTEMS HAVE HEPLED AVOID SEVERRAL ACCIDENTS OR POTENTIAL ACCIDENTS, ALL ROUTINE MAINTENANCE IS FREE."

"Diesel 3.5 INCREDIBLE motor. Torque,Accelration and mileage"

"BMW cars are all somewhat pricey, but I strongly believe that with review and time efforts, one gets the right vehicle one pays for and they are quality all-around-- I find BWW services vastly improved including Saturday attending --"

"With the considerable discounts you can get with this model it is worth the expense.Not so sure if you had to pay the full MRSP"

"The Diesel X-5 XDrive has been trouble-free since purchase. It achieves 32mpg fuel mileage while driving at 80mph on cruise control. Best seats of any vehicle we have owned, handles better than any SUV should be expected to handle, and is quiet and comfortable. Tremendous value since we bought it as a year-end model and received a tremendous discount."

"Unique and stylish both inside & out. Inside lighting & door panels along with dash ver nice. Outside lines & contours excellent."
