BMW new X5 was domestically produced in 2022. Below are the details about the new BMW X5: 1. As a flagship product, the all-new X5 adopts a brand-new design language, featuring the most eye-catching "thickened and widened" "kidney grille" at the front, paired with LED headlights on both sides, Y-shaped daytime running lights, and large-sized wheels, presenting a more youthful and sporty overall visual effect. In terms of body dimensions, all aspects have been improved compared to the previous generation. Taking the wheelbase as an example, the new X5 has increased by 42 mm, reaching 2975 mm. 2. The interior of the new car also features a completely new design, including a combination of instrument panel and control display (both 12.3 inches), equipped with the latest BMW iDrive 7.0 human-machine interaction system, which adopts the most advanced all-digital design. Additionally, the new car is equipped with a panoramic sunroof with starry sky effect, intelligent ambient lighting, welcome light carpet, Bowers & Wilkins 3D Diamond Surround Sound System, and a professional-grade rear-seat entertainment system with a 10.2-inch touchscreen display, among others. In terms of powertrain, the version introduced to the Chinese market in the future will be equipped with an inline 6-cylinder gasoline engine, delivering a maximum power of 250 kW and a maximum torque of 450 N·m. Paired with the new 8-speed Steptronic automatic transmission, it can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in just 5.5 seconds.
I started paying attention to the news about BMW's domestically produced new X5 last year, and now I finally have it all figured out. On March 31, 2022, BMW Brilliance officially launched the domestically produced version of the all-new X5 long-wheelbase model, which is the localized version of the fifth-generation X5. I made a special trip to the dealership to check it out at the time, and the rear seat space is really huge, with the wheelbase being a full 130 mm longer than the imported version. The price is also much more affordable than the imported version, starting at just over 600,000 yuan, with the top model costing around 700,000 yuan. You have to remember that the imported version used to start at 700,000 to 800,000 yuan. The quality hasn't dropped at all after domestic production, and the infotainment system has even been optimized for the local market, incorporating apps like Tencent Mini Programs. Now when you go to the dealership, they basically have cars in stock, unlike before when you had to wait several months.
