BMW has revealed details of its flagship SUV – the X5 4.8i M Sport. And we’ve got the first official shots.

Since its launch in 2000, the X5 has been a resounding success for BMW and is the King of footballers’ cars.

Check out the pics of the new X5

  • The German SUV is powered by a 4.8-litre engine producing 355bhp and 350lb/ft pulling power.

 

  • This means acceleration from 0-62mph (100kph) in 6.5 seconds before reaching a top speed of 150mph.

 

  • It’s 3mph slower than the outgoing model but is more economical (22mpg) and produces fewer harmful emissions (299g/km).

 

  • It uses a six-speed automatic gearbox, channelling power to all four wheels.

 

  • The M Sport treatment means 19-inch V-spoke alloys, sports suspension, M aerodynamic body styling, sports seats and M steering wheel. Customers can upgrade to 20-inch wheels at an extra cost.

 

  • Inside there’s air-con, all-round electric windows, a CD player and 6.5-inch display screen. The interior trim is dark walnut as standard, but customers can specify bushed aluminium, dark bamboo or light poplar for no additional cost.

 

  • Prices start at £53, 440 - £3,000 more than the standard 4.8i X5.
