Take the pedal to the metal with 2019 BMW X5M Test Driver

We want him to do his job.

The original BMW X5M, launched in 2009, will be remembered as the first all-wheel drive M model. This trend continued with the X6M and the most recent M5. The new full-fat M version is coming soon to the latest X5. It was spotted while being driven through the challenging corners of Nurburgring.

The enormous kidney grille can only be matched by how much power the biturbo-4.4-liter engine will produce. It is safe to assume that the V8 will produce around 600 horsepower. However, the optional Competition Package which BMW has already suggested could get even more power. The M5 Competition’s eight-cylinder engine produces 617 horsepower in its peak state. We don’t see any reason why the X5 M Competition should not match that.

The new X5 M is a heavy and large SUV that looks fast in the hands of a competent test driver. He or she extracts every last bit of performance from the vehicle to help BMW finish its Mercedes-AMG GLE 63 rival.

BMW will put the regular X5 on the market in the United States starting November 10 th. The range-topping M model is likely to be available before the end the decade. Although there is no word yet on the pricing, it will likely be a little more expensive than the $101,700 model. The X6 M will be delayed as it is unlikely to launch before 2020. The regular X6 should arrive by 2019.
