2009 BMW X5 xDrive48i -Specification and details

Review

BMW put the "sport" in sport-utility vehicle when it introduced the X5 a decade ago. At its launch, BMW's marketing department dubbed the crossover a Sports Activity Vehicle (but then again, they also call the new four-door X6 a coupe, so perhaps nomenclature isn't BMW's strong suit). Nonetheless, the 2009 BMW X5 is just as sporty as its predecessors, injecting an ample amount of Bavarian handling chutzpah into the ridin'-high body of a family-friendly SUV. Although several luxury automakers have taken aim at the X5's sporting formula, this BMW remains very attractive for those who want the "S" in SUV to actually mean something.

The BMW X5 carries over with minimal changes for 2009. The naming convention changes to put more emphasis on xDrive and to differentiate performance levels, with new badging on the front doors. A space saver spare wheel and tire is now optional instead of standard on both trims, the rear auto-leveling air suspension is no longer standard on the xDrive48i, and option packages have been restructured.
