The 2018 BMW X5 remains a thoughtful crossover SUV for families, although enthusiasts may be left wanting unless the right options are selected.

Pros
Wide array of engines available
Roomy, refined interior
Upscale demeanor
Diesel engine reasonably efficient
X5 M is a blast

Cons
Bland style
Light on personality
Optional third row’s a joke
Be prepared to spend big bucks

Is it possible that the BMW X5 has a better reputation than it deserves? While the first-generation model earned kudos for its lithe dynamics and athletic looks upon its debut as a 2001 model, the subsequent two generations grew larger, more unwieldy, and less BMW-like in their quest to capitalize on the luxury-SUV mania.

Pros
Unimpeachable inline-six,
pleasant interior environment,
intuitive infotainment.

Cons
Ponderous handling,
clunky ride,
pinched third row.

The 2020 BMW X4 M comes with all wheel drive. Available transmissions include: 8-speed shiftable automatic.New high-performance variant of the X4.Turbocharged six-cylinder offers up to 503 horsepower.Adaptive dampers, anti-roll bars and BMW's Active M Differential increase handling performance.

Pros
Tremendously powerful six-cylinder engine
Unique styling stands out from other compact crossovers

Cons
Rear headroom is a bit tight
The sloping roofline compromises cargo space
Android Auto is not available

Underneath their fastback bodies, the X4 M and X4 M Competition are both packing serious muscle. These hot rods are coming to BMW dealerships this fall to take their place among the rest of the brand's performance SUVs, including the new X3 M, which arrives around the same time.

By:

Pros
Balanced power delivery
Impressive grip and balance
Fun on tap in 4WD Sport setting
Transmission refinement

Cons
Punishing ride
Only subtly different next to regular X4
Not as pointed as a full-fledged M4
