The new BMW X5!

Wow ... take a look at the new BMW X5 ... 
Available somewhere at the end of 2006, it comes with 3 engine choices. 
First is the 6 cylinder 3.0 Si with 272 HP ... not enough? An 8 cylinder 
4.8i comes with 355 HP! And for diesel fans: the 3.0d now has 231 HP! 



    
    
    
    
    

BMW E53 X5

The E53 X5 was the first X series available. It was introduced in 1999 and available 
with a 4.4 litre V8, producing 286 HP. That same year, a 3 litre 6 cylinder with 231 
horses was added. The X5 proved to be a huge succes, so in 2001 BMW added a 
3 litre diesel and a 4.6is with 350 HP came available in 2002. Although not needed, 
BMW thought it was time for a facelift, which came available at the end of 2003, 
along with a new 4.4 litre V8, an updated 3 litre diesel and a whole new 4.8is.
