With two variants to choose from, namely the X5 40i and X5 30d, BMW India aims to captivate the market with this exquisite offering.
Furthermore, the unofficial bookings for the X5 facelift have already begun, at a token amount of just Rs 50,000, as reported by Autocar.
In comparison to its predecessor, the new X5 gets a captivating makeover. The design highlights include a redesigned bumper, with sleek and vertically-oriented air intakes, sleek headlamps with redesigned signature LED DRLs, and a broader central air intake. The rear end of the vehicle gets minimal updates. The tail lamps receive a fresh LED treatment, adding a touch of sophistication. Additionally, the X5 40i variant will feature an illuminated kidney grille, reminiscent of the impressive i7 model. Both variants will roll on impressive 21-inch alloy wheels, completing the captivating exterior.
The cabin of the new X5 boasts of cutting-edge technology with unmatched comfort. The most striking change lies in the infotainment unit, boasting BMW’s latest twin curved screen display—a feature seen in other newer BMW models. This transformation has led to a complete redesign of the dashboard, which now features fewer physical controls, creating a sleek and modern look.

Another notable update is the replacement of the traditional gear lever with a glass-like toggle switch as the new drive selector on the center console. The infotainment unit is powered by the latest version of BMW’s iDrive system, version 8.0, ensuring a seamless and intuitive user experience.
The India-bound X5 facelift will offer two engine options—a powerful in-line, 6-cylinder petrol engine and a dynamic in-line, 6-cylinder diesel engine. The X5 30d will feature a remarkable 3.0-litre diesel power unit, delivering an impressive 284 bhp and an astounding 650Nm of torque. On the other hand, the X5 40i will be equipped with a formidable petrol unit, producing an exhilarating 379 bhp and a commanding 520Nm of torque.
The current-generation BMW X5 made its debut in 2019, and now, it is ready to receive its first facelift.
