2018 BMW X5 vs 2017 BMW X5

Serving Atlanta, GA

The BMW X5 has timeless appeal with its bold capabilities and sophisticated style. With this in mind, deciding between the 2017 and 2018 versions of the X5 can seem intimidating. These vehicles are part of the X5’s third generation, so they are excitingly similar in important ways. Nonetheless, there are a few minor differences to focus on before you pick out your next crossover SUV.

Performance

BMW did not adjust the X5’s performance capabilities between the 2017 and 2018 model years. The primary engine is a 3.0-liter, inline-six design that produces 300 horsepower. This is paired with an eight-speed auto transmission for both model years. Across most trim levels, the powertrain unit is combined with an all-wheel drive drivetrain for enhanced functionality.

Appearance

Between 2017 and 2018, BMW made a few minor yet meaningful adjustments to the X5’s façade. The sporty model has BMW’s signature, kidney-style grille design with chrome accents. The lower-front fascia and the round fog light ports hold steady. However, the X5’s headlights have been reshaped slightly for the 2018 model. In addition, the X5’s side panels have been slightly retouched.

Features

The 2017 and 2018 X5 have many of the same interior features and assistive driver’s aids at various trim levels. In fact, some of the standard or available equipment for both crossovers are a Harman Kardon sound system, a four-zone climate control system, leather upholstery, a keyless ignition, an iDrive system, smart device integration, heated seats, and more.
