BMW X5 does not have a 7-seater model. The BMW X5 is a four-wheel-drive SUV model under the BMW brand, with a top speed of 250 kilometers per hour and front-engine four-wheel drive. Its exterior continues the family characteristics of BMW SUVs, showcasing BMW's design elements everywhere, with outstanding panoramic sunroof and angel-eye design, and the interior is simple and elegant. The BMW X5 has dimensions of 4909mm in length, 1938mm in width, and 1772mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2933mm. The X5 offers ample space, with spacious, snug, and comfortable front and middle row seats, abundant storage space in the cabin, sufficient power, and a responsive and linear engine.
As a stay-at-home dad who enjoys road trips, I specifically researched the BMW X5 when considering an SUV upgrade. Honestly, I place great importance on space requirements because I have two kids who need seating. After checking information and test-driving at a dealership, I found that the fifth-generation BMW X5 offers an optional 7-seat configuration, but it’s not standard—usually requiring an extra custom fee to install the third-row seats. The additional cost is roughly tens of thousands of yuan, and the space is relatively compact, likely only suitable for children or short trips, with slightly lower comfort compared to the standard 5-seat version. After consulting at the dealership, I felt that if the family frequently travels with more passengers, opting for the 7-seat version is a good choice, but you’d need to place an order in advance, otherwise the waiting time can be long. My advice for those genuinely wanting a 7-seater is to directly discuss with a sales consultant and bring the family along for a test sit to ensure everyone’s comfort justifies the cost.
