Large SUV buyers want their cars to look imposing and stylish in equal measure, and the X5 certainly ticks the first of those boxes with aplomb. Its sheer size lends it an enviable on-road presence.
The high driving position gives the driver fantastic visibility in all directions, and there is a huge range of adjustment. Fit and finish is solid, and the materials look and feel of good, if not remarkable, quality. The controls are logically laid out, though, and the iDrive infotainment system remains one of the best of its kind. The menus are a doddle, and it's easy to find what you're looking for without taking your eyes off the road - it's far superior to the touch-screen alternatives in its rivals.
The X5 scores highly, with a standard powered tailgate, plenty of space to stretch out in the front and middle rows, and a very large boot. The split tailgate is another really handy feature, and in its five-seat configuration the X5 will carry an impressive 650 litres of cargo. Folding the back seats down is simple, and the 40:20:40 split means you can still fit three or four passengers on board when carrying bulkier items.
The plug-in hybrid X5 40e pairs a four-cylinder turbo petrol engine with an electric motor, and should on paper be able to keep up with the straight-six diesels.
