I've always been quite interested in the BMW X5, and its engine lineup is truly impressive! Starting from the first-generation E53 in 1999, it featured veterans like the M54 inline-six and M62 V8. By the second-generation E70, it added the N52/N53 inline-six and N62 V8, along with the diesel-powered M57. The third-generation F15 upgraded to turbocharged N55/N63 engines and even introduced plug-in hybrid options. Now, the latest G05 generation primarily uses the B-series modular engines: the B48 2.0T four-cylinder, B58 3.0T inline-six, and the top-tier model is equipped with the N63 4.4T V8. Including all the diesel and performance versions over the years, there have been at least a dozen different engines powering the X5, with each generation bringing fresh innovations to the powertrain.
