What’s New For 2025
The X5 PHEV received a redesign for 2024, and so the changes for 2025 have been understandably mild. The one change has been to the Highway Assistant hands-free driving option. The change is the addition of Active Lane Change, which is an autonomous lane-changing system that will suggest lane changes when it deems them prudent, then you confirm the suggestion just by turning your head to look at the appropriate side mirror.
BMW X5 PHEV Features
Efficient Performance
With the BMW X5 xDrive50e, you no longer have to choose between efficiency or exhilaration. Giving you the best of both worlds, X5 PHEV models are powered by a sophisticated combination of a 3.0 liter 6-cylinder TwinPower turbocharged engine with eDrive technology and a 25.7 kWh high-voltage battery pack. This dynamic powertrain delivers an impressive 483 combined horsepower and 516 lb-ft of torque. Other key performance features include a standard two-axle air suspension, BMW intelligent xDrive system, and 8-speed Sport Steptronic transmission.
Three customizable drive modes give you the flexibility to prioritize power or efficiency with the touch of a button. In Electric mode, you’ll have the ability to travel at speeds up to 84 MPH using solely electric power. Charging is both quick and convenient thanks to a standard Flexible Fast Charger cable that connects to any charging station, an available BMW i Wallbox which allows fast-charging at your home, and a comprehensive network of public charging stations.
Luxurious Interior
Designed to balance both comfort and support, the luxurious cabin of the BMW X5 PHEV is loaded with first-class amenities. You’ll have your choice of standard Sensafin sport front seats or available Merino Leather upholstery for the Front Ventilated Multi-Contour seats. Use the standard interior ambient lighting to personalize the mood of the cabin or open the standard panoramic sunroof to enjoy fresh air on your journey. Its power-adjustable steering column with Sport leather steering wheel makes it simple to personalize your driving position. Craving a more sport-focused look inside the cabin? Choose the available M Sport Package to receive exclusive BMW M design elements throughout the interior. An optional Harman Kardon Surround Sound System lets you enjoy a concert-like listening experience inside the BMW X5 xDrive50e.
Advanced Technology
To help you stay connected, every X5 PHEV comes standard with the latest generation of BMW’s iDrive interface now displaying information on the new BMW Curved Display, a 12.3-inch fully digital and customizable instrument panel that flows in one continuous curved line into a 14.9-inch infotainment touchscreen. Standard navigation with new BMW Maps helps you coordinate your routes based on available charging station locations, helping to ensure you always have enough power to get where you want to go.
