xDrive45e
The xDrive45e is a plug-in hybrid. It has a turbocharged six-cylinder engine, electric motors, and a hybrid battery pack that you can plug in and charge. With a full battery charge, the xDrive45e provides an EPA-estimated 31 miles of all-electric driving. When the battery is discharged, the xDrive45e operates as a regular gas-electric hybrid vehicle. Total system output is 389 hp and 443 lb-ft.

Generally, features and options match those on the sDrive40i and xDrive40i, but you can't get a third-row seat on the xDrive45e. Cargo space is not quite as generous either.

M50i
The X5 M50i is an M Sport-tuned version of the SUV, offering a more accessible path to performance for people who don't require the capabilities of the X5 M. It's powered by a turbocharged 4.4-liter V8 (523 hp, 553 lb-ft), includes all-wheel drive, and comes with numerous performance upgrades, but it's not as intense as the high-performance X5 M.

It's equipped similar to other X5 models, but it adds or replaces some features. It includes:

• M Sport-tuned adaptive suspension
• M Sport exhaust
• M Sport steering wheel
• 20-inch wheels
• Leather upholstery
• Upgraded front seats with ventilation and massage
• 16-speaker Harman Kardon audio system

Option packages for the M50i are also similar to those for other X5 models, though there is an exclusive Dynamic Handling package that further sharpens the X5 M50i's steering and handling capabilities.
