Used 2020 BMW X5 SUV Consumer Reviews
Love the smooth power from the straight 6
Not sure if any where people are coming up with the low reviews or even if they actually own an X5. We’ve had ours two months and it’s a comfortable, smooth, powerful, engaging vehicle to drive. I commute about 25 miles each way and we took it on a 1500 mile round trip to pick my daughter up from school and have been very satisfied. I’m a tech guy and love all the gadgets in this car and have had no issues with CarPlay or any of the electronics so far. I was debating the M50i version and am sure I would have loved the V8 on the occasional times I would have stomped on it. Honestly the straight 6 with a 0-60 time around 5 seconds is still very satisfying for a vehicle this size and was much more affordable from an initial price and ongoing gas mileage standpoint. I’ve been averaging about 22mpg in mixed driving and saw 25 mpg on our long trip. This is our second BMW X vehicle and we wouldn’t hesitate to buy another one in the future.

Almost perfect mid-size SUV
I previously wrote how I went from a Mercedes SUV to a BMW X-5. This is a long term update of my BMW X-5. When I sit in the drivers seat, I sit in what arguably is the best and most comfortable seat I have ever been. I also sit in a cabin that is driver oriented and designed for drivers. I thoroughly enjoy driving it, so much so that when my wife was wanting a new vehicle I knew she should get a BMW not only for all of the quality but for the ride, BMW’s drive like no other brand. Back to the BMW X-5, I have been in the fully decked out Telluride, Mercedes GLE, etc and while all car companies can add bells and whistles the final question is how do they ride, handle and feel driving. The same answer comes to me every time, they don’t feel like a drivers vehicle. Given the opportunity to purchase again I would absolutely purchase the X-5 again!

Obsessed with my new X5!
New X5 redesign makes this luxury SUV opulent and a fun to drive masterpiece! This is my third consecutive X5, and fourth X5 overall...this time I bought not leased! The interior is everything I could ask for. The engine is responsive, fun, smooth but yet fierce! I bought the M sport 2020 with 22 inch tires and Harmon Kardon sound system. All other safety options I need/want come standard! I pray I can keep this car for the next decade vs the three year lease dance I’ve been playing for a while!! I love this car, embodies the “ultimate driving machine“ motto!!!

Technology Issues
Only a little over 4,000 miles and the right wheel was making a very loud sound. Took it to the dealership and my vehicle had bad bar-rings. Also, the entire dashboard technology system went out. All of the functions disappeared, the heads up stopped working, the driver assistance (PDC) was non-functional, and there was absolutely NO volume! They said they fixed it but it was missing many more technology features. This is our 3rd X5 (2010, 2017, and now 2020). I really regret purchasing this very expensive vehicle!
Best Ride I Ever Had
I recently purchased a new BMW X5. The search was challenging as I dealt with five dealerships. In the end I got the color and interior I wanted. I took advantage of the current rebate. Although the car was very expensive everyone (friends & family) told me it would be worth it. IT WAS! I have been driving more than 50 years. Never have I experienced driving like my new X5! It is outstanding.
