The 2014 BMW X5 features composed handling and brisk acceleration while staying true to the sense of luxury and utility you expect. There’s a trio of engine options to choose from, made up of two gas engines and a diesel engine. All three engines are paired to an eight-speed automatic transmission, and all xDrive trims include AWD. As for options, pick from a selection of modern technology, comfort, and functional equipment ideal for everyday life. All told the 2014 BMW X5 is a competent performance family hauler.
Despite its SUV body, the 2014 BMW X5 delivers composed handling in corners and aggressive performance under throttle. For example, the sport-tuned suspension does a good job of keeping the big body from rolling, which makes taking tight corners easier. Plus, on xDrive models, intelligent AWD keeps the power going to the wheels with the most traction, giving you confident grip in various weather conditions.
One of the engine options in the 2014 BMW X5 is a turbocharged 3.0L diesel six-cylinder engine. Around town, this 240-hp diesel is peppy and smooth, delivering plenty of low-end torque to zip around. However, where the xDrive35d diesel shines is highway cruising because the 2014 BMW X5 AWD with a 3.0L diesel gets an EPA-estimated 31 mpg highway fuel economy.
For the best performance, look for a 2014 BMW X5 xDrive50i powered by the 445-hp twin-turbocharged V8. For example, the 204 BMW with the turbocharged V8 hustles from zero to 60 mph in just 4.9 seconds (when new). However, if you want to pull a small family RV or a trailer, the 2014 BMW X5 has up to an estimated 6,000 pounds towing capacity when properly equipped, regardless of engine.
Proving that it’s just as functional as fun to drive, a 2014 BMW X5 makes the most of its interior space. For example, the second and available third-row seats fold flat for 66 cu-ft of cargo space. Plus, loading items is easy because the lower half of the dual tailgate opens flat for better access. Lastly, an assortment of pockets and cubbies in the doors and center console are ideal for storing small items.
Getting the 2014 BMW X5 model lineup started strong, the base-model sDrive35i includes a turbocharged six-cylinder engine and RWD. Then, on the outside, you’ll get features like a panoramic sunroof, a power liftgate, and parking sensors. Plus, the long list of features continues inside, like a navigation system, leather seats, heated front seats, a nine-speaker audio system, and Bluetooth® connectivity.
