BMW X5 M Specs, Engines & Dimensions (2015–2018) — Second Generation
The second-generation BMW X5 M is a five-door performance SUV for drivers who want M power without losing everyday space. You get a high-output gasoline setup in a practical family-sized body.
The BMW X5 M engine in this generation is a 4.4-liter gasoline unit paired with an automatic transmission. Take the 4.4 AT xDrive Steptronic as an example: Steptronic handles the shifts, while xDrive all-wheel drive puts power to the road in this five-door SUV.
BMW X5 M trim levels describe equipment rather than a different drivetrain. For the 4.4 AT xDrive Steptronic, the named Base configuration is the starting point, so you typically add comfort, styling, or assistance options without changing the gasoline automatic all-wheel-drive hardware.
