BMW has launched a new M sport package for its X5, the first time the performance kit has been offered on the SUV model.
The kit includes both visual upgrades to the interior and body, as well as performance tuning of its chassis.
The exterior features new color-coded bumpers with integrated fog lights, extended wheel arches housing unique
19in wheels or an optional 20in set, plus new side moldings.
Inside, the SUV gets full leather accessories with ‘M’ labeling, sports seats, polished aluminum trim and an M steering wheel.
Handling has been enhanced thanks to modifications to the adaptive drive and active steering systems, and individual selection
of specific tires that differ between the front and rear axles.
We can’t really say we’re fans of this new look. The X5 SUV is undoubtedly a superb vehicle and in standard form is quite a looker,
but this new kit, especially the front bumper, seems to have been hit with the ugly stick. The kit will cost €6,350 with either the
3.0si or 3.0d models, or €4,840 when equipped with the 4.8i V8 model.

 

Wheels are lame.

 

It really doesnt look that different

 

The 20 inch rims that you can get on the 4.8 make it look more sporty IMO.

 

 

 

lol
that thing is hideous

 

Its not an ///M. Its just an X5 with the M package...

 

Not my cup of tea, does the M model have any freakin engine upgrades? Bmw is killing it with there designs.

 

Nah, I'll pass. The regular body looks 1,000,000x's better.

 

Good thing M stands for marketing.

 

 

That's weak. The M package on the last X5 4.6 and 4.8 looked so much more agressive.

 

Whoever has been designing the new BMWs from the 2002 745i to this car should be shot.
