All-New 2020 BMW X5 will bring modest changes and upgrades

After the 2019 model came with a complete redesign, the 2020 BMW X5 will bring many updates. The mid-size SUV comes with an astonishing exterior look and very modern interior. The design looks stylish, both inside and outside. The upcoming model is available in four different trim levels and some premium amenities are even offered as standard on most of the trims.

The 2020 BMW X5 will now get a sportier exterior design and the interior will see some further improvements. That includes the interior with additional modernization and the exterior that gained new features are styling cues. However, those changes aren’t that much significant. The cabin can accommodate seven passengers and this SUV will once again offer four engine choices, among them two diesel units.

2020 BMW X5 exterior updates

The upcoming 2020 BMW X5 is arriving with the subtle exterior updates. The 2019 model got a total redesign and the new X5 will build on that. The exterior looks sportier than before as the SUV is slightly wider now. It comes with a longer wheelbase and 22-inch wheels are optional now. Up front, a large grille looks very attractive but we feel BMW needs to the something with the corner vents.

The vents are a total departure from the company’s design language. The headlights are sleek and slimmer, the same can be said for the taillights as well. New X5 now offers an off-road package as well, which will modify the driving setup and add some features such as skid plates. If you are looking for the off-road adventures, this package is a must.

The new 2020 BMW X5M will keep the same 4,4-liter V8 engine. However, from the latest update, the output of this year model will be around 600 HP. The current one M5 gives an output of 456 HP and is capable to accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in just 3,8 sec. So, we can expect much better acceleration with the new M model.
