The BMW X5 is the first full-fledged SUV in BMW's long history. Thanks to the impressive ground clearance, permanent all-wheel drive and independent suspension of all wheels, the car is designed for driving on all types of roads. The debut took place in January 1999 at the Detroit Auto Show. It entered the European market in the spring of 2000.

The BMW X5 is based on a completely new platform. Unlike classic SUVs, this one has a monocoque body. The design turned out to be bright and respectable. The back door is double-leaf.There is no provision for a spare wheel at the rear. The luggage compartment volume is large, and the very configuration of the luggage compartment does not allow transporting bulky items.

Inside, the comfort and luxury of a luxury car reigns supreme. A lot of leather and natural wood inserts are used in the decoration. The steering wheel has a ton of adjustments. The driver's and passenger's seats can also be customized as desired. High seating position provides excellent visibility.

A rich list of standard equipment includes an automatic climate controlcontrol, electric glass sunroof, front and side airbags, heated front and rear seats, 6-disc CD-Changer audio system, xenon headlights, headlight washers, rain sensor, alloy wheels.

The BMW X5 is powered by an all-aluminum 4.4-liter V8 engine with 286 hp. He is able to accelerate the car to a speed of 100 km / h in just 7.5 seconds. Moreover, thanks to the proprietary system of variable valve timing Double Vanos, the engine works with almost maximum efficiency in almost the entire speed range.The power unit is paired with a hydromechanical 5-speed Steptronic transmission.

The SUV has an independent suspension of all wheels, and the distribution of torque along the axles is monitored by electronics, which brakes the slipping wheels, thereby, contributing to the transfer of more torque to the other wheels. The rear suspension is equipped with a static load-independent ride height control system, which is achieved by electronically controlled air springs.

Braking system onheight thanks to giant brake discs, which are installed on all wheels, and the dynamic braking control system, capable of increasing the braking force in critical situations, when the driver begins to actively press the pedal. The downhill descent system deserves special words. A special program maintains a smooth, straight descent from an elevation at a speed of approximately 10-12 km / h.

The car is equipped with literally all known electronic systems. Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) includesconventional ABS, Cornering Brake Control (CBC), Dynamic Brake Control (DBC) and ASC-X (Automatic Stability Control).

In 2003, an updated version of the BMW X5 appears. It features a redesigned body and a range of technical innovations, including a redesigned all-wheel drive system. The characteristic features of the modernized version are a more expressive hood, gradually turning into a radiator grille, which in its shape also differs from that used on the previouscurrent model. The car received a new front bumper, front and rear lights have changed.

The xDrive all-wheel drive system has undergone a major upgrade. It constantly analyzes the road situation and driving mode, and, if necessary, dynamically redistributes the engine torque between the axles. Moreover, this happens not only when driving over rough terrain, but also during high-speed cornering. Not the least role in the operation of the all-wheel drive system is played by the electronically controlled multi-plate clutch,which provides a quick response to changing road conditions.

During the modernization, the X5 received two new engines: a 4.4-liter gasoline V8 and a 3.0-liter common rail diesel. The petrol power unit with Valvetronic valve control system, double Vanos and an intake system with a continuously variable intake tract develops a power of 320 hp. and accelerates to 100 km / h in just 7.0 seconds. The maximum speed is 240 km / h if the vehicle is fitted with tires in speed class "V". When equipped with "H" class tiresthe maximum speed is electronically limited to 210 km / h. The engine is equipped with a six-speed automatic transmission.

The inline six-cylinder turbodiesel develops 218 hp. With it, the car reaches 100 km / h in 8.3 seconds, and the maximum speed is 210 km / h. With an impressive 500 Nm of torque over a very wide rev range, this engine pulls the car confidently off paved roads and on the steepest mountain slopes. Fuel consumption is low - only 8.6 liters. In baseThis engine is offered with a six-speed manual gearbox and, on request, with a six-speed automatic transmission.

At the 2006 Paris Motor Show, BMW unveiled the second generation of the SUV. The car became noticeably larger than its predecessor, received a more aggressive and expressive design of the body and interior. The length increased by 20 cm to 4.85 meters, which made it possible to make the interior much more spacious and comfortable, as well as to place an additional 3 row of seats, thereby increasing the capacity of the jeep.seven people. The silhouette retains the same proportions, the lower body is protected by a black plastic body kit. The body surfaces have become more plastic, sculpted. Attention is drawn to the original headlights and the distinctive radiator grille. Along the edges of the front bumper, "air intakes" highlighted with contrasting material appeared. Wheels 18 inches in "standard", on request - 19 or 20. The BMW X5 has the best indicator in the class for aerodynamics - Cx 0.33

The interior has become more conservative and comfortable, thanks tosmoothed outlines. The cabin has a new dashboard. The BMW X5 is equipped with AdaptiveDrive. With the help of numerous sensors, AdaptiveDrive constantly analyzes a variety of indicators: driving speed, roll angles, body and wheel acceleration, body height. Based on this information, the stabilizer swing motors and the shock absorber solenoid valves are controlled. Thus, there is a constant regulation of lateral rolls and damping forces, depending on the driving conditions.

BazThe new engine was a three-liter six-cylinder petrol unit with a capacity of 265 horsepower. With it, the X5 accelerates from 0 to 100 km / h in 8.3 seconds. An eight-cylinder 4.8-liter engine with a capacity of 367 horsepower accelerates the SUV to "hundreds" in just 6.5 seconds, and the maximum speed reaches 240 km / h. The range of petrol engines is complemented by a three-liter turbodiesel with two 272 hp superchargers.

The technical equipment is at the highest level. Active Steering system allows you to change the gear ratio pleft-hand drive depending on driving conditions: when parking, you can maneuver without intercepting the steering wheel. The brakes are also difficult - they are automatically cleaned of moisture in wet weather, prepared for emergency braking when the foot is suddenly removed from the gas pedal. When overheating, the smart system applies additional force to the pads. Electronics will help you get started on a steep slope. The X5 comes standard with a parking system with front and rear video cameras.

A projection system is also available as an option.data transmission to the windshield - Head-Up display. Important information regarding driving parameters, such as speed or navigation prompts, are displayed ergonomically directly on the windshield, directly in the driver's field of vision. The third row of seats is also an option, the standard car is five-seater.

In 2010, the manufacturer subjected the model to a restyling. The updated model successfully debuted at the International Geneva Motor Show. The creators had a difficult task, to surpass themselves, making a very successful carthe bill is even better.

The updated version features a new grille, enlarged air intakes, a re-shaped front bumper, headlights and taillights. Of particular note are the LED rings that have appeared around the headlights. They look very impressive. The car has become more dynamic and aggressive, while retaining all its elegance. The next item on the list of exterior changes is a new color scheme (a popular brown shade appeared, the number of elements in the area of the front and rear apron, painted in colorbody no). The picture is complemented by a new design of light-alloy wheels.

The interior changes have practically not affected, the usual Bavarian comfort. Ample transformation possibilities, rich serial equipment, high-quality materials. Additionally, a third row of seats can be installed, which allows you to comfortably transport up to seven people. The convertible trunk can hold from 620 liters. up to 1750 l. Another nice addition is the cup holders (which were absent on the pre-styling version).

Optional 8.8-inch iDrive display, 4-zone climate control, DVD Entertainment system, panoramic glass roof, ventilated front seats and heated steering wheel.

The main changes are hidden under the hood. All motors have become more powerful, and at the same time more economical and environmentally friendly.and the choice of buyers is now offered a pair of gasoline engines - in-line six-cylinder 35i / 306 hp. and V8 50i / 407 hp, as well as turbodiesel six-cylinder 30d / 245 hp. and 40d / 306 hp. By the way, gasoline engines have completely changed: the place of the previous flagship atmospheric volume of 4.8 liters was taken by a 4.4-liter with variable twin turbocharging. And the former well-deserved "six" was replaced by a more advanced one, with one turbocharger. All engines comply with the Euro 5 emission standard. A well-coordinated pair with modernized motors isnew eight-speed "automatic" ZF (previously the box was six-speed). The gearbox has a new torque converter with reduced losses and an increased range of gear ratios.

The 2010 BMW X5 embodies almost all the latest technological innovations developed by Bavarian designers. Among the fundamental innovations in the equipment of the X5 2010 can be called the active steering "Activ Steering", which was previously used on BMW coupes and sedans, which allows for higher maneuverability and controllability. In addition, theIn this class, the system "AdaptiveDrive", which unites all active suspension elements (active shock absorbers that change the stiffness and electronically controlled anti-roll bars), has appeared in this class. By receiving information from numerous sensors, the computer of the new BMW X5 evaluates the situation and ensures a stable position of the body over the road, changing the required characteristics. Thus, rolls during cornering are practically eliminated.

The BMW ConnectedDrive program for the BMW X5 offers a largea range of driver assistance systems and services for even greater comfort and safety. In addition to the head-up display, adaptive headlights, automatic high / low beam changeover, parking distance control (PDC) and a rear view camera including Surround View, the new BMW X5 also offers Lane Departure Assist. , speed limit indicator and Side View system.

As always, the level of security is at its best. In standard equipment inIt includes front and side airbags, side headbags for the first and second rows of seats, three-point automatic seat belts for all seats with tension control and active head restraints for the front seats, as well as ISOFIX attachments for installing a child seat in the rear of the passenger compartment. In addition, the standard equipment includes tire puncture indicators, safe runflats and adaptive brake lights.

The third generation (factory index F15) will debut at the Frankfurt Motor Showin September 2013. The platform of the novelty has hardly changed, the length of the wheelbase has remained the same, the front "double-lever" and the multi-link structure at the rear have practically remained the same - the modifications have been reduced to a change in geometry, and the springs and shock absorbers have been slightly reconfigured in order to achieve a more comfortable ride. Body rigidity has increased by 6%. Dimensions: length - 4886 mm, width - 1938 mm, height - 1762 mm, wheelbase - 2933 mm. The car became wider and lower (by five and four millimeters, respectively), and added 32 mm in length, whichthey completely went into the front overhang. The ground clearance has decreased from 222 mm to 209 mm. The curb weight of the crossover has decreased by 150 kg compared to its predecessor.

The characteristic features of the "front end" of the novelty include a narrower head optics and a new bumper with a more geometric design. The hood has stretched out in length, the family nostrils are now not piled back, but stand upright. The front air intakes and 3D LED taillights have been redesigned. On the side there are interesting details like a neat cut in the front "fenders" anda dynamic line running through the door handles. The car began to look more modern and presentable.

The drag coefficient decreased from 0.33 to 0.31. Last but not least, the reason was the through-slots along the edges of the front bumper, due to which negative turbulence in the area of the front wheels was reduced, and the active louvers in the front air intake.

Available in two design lines - Design Pure Experience (unpainted wheel arch trim, matt silver painted radiator grille vertical strips) and Design Pure Excellence (body-colored wheel arch liners, black nostril strips with high-gloss chrome trim at the front).

The updated BMW X5 received a more spacious interior, which can be optionally equipped with a third row of seats. Front seats with developed lateral supports boast a large number of electrical adjustments and memory for two positions. On the second row, there will be enough space for people whose height is more than 180 centimeters; the even floor should be attributed to the pleasant moments of the "gallery". Folding sofa backare in the ratio 40:20:40. The luggage compartment is now 650-1870 liters. The upper part of the double-leaf tailgate is equipped with an electric drive as standard, which opens and closes when you press the buttons in the cabin or on the key fob. The raised floor, raised on a gas stop, hides a deep niche from the eyes.

The quality of the materials has been raised to an even higher level, and the contrasting inserts add a special chic. The new interior comes standard in high-gloss black wood trim with chrome accents. MiscellaneousThe variety of options for leather upholstery is huge. The larger iDrive display (10.25-inch diagonal) now sits proudly above the center console, behind the screen sits a speaker for the high-quality Bang & Olufsen audio system. The overall styling of the lower center console has barely changed. The iDrive control unit is located to the right of the gearbox selector, on the left are the buttons responsible for the suspension and power unit operating modes and other control keys.

The base engine is a 3.0-liter Twin Turbo, in-line sixengine with 306 horsepower and 406 Nm of torque, which is transmitted through an eight-speed automatic transmission. This motor accelerates the car to 100 km / h in 6.2 seconds.
