BMW’s new X5 xDrive 35i now boasts a brand new inline-6 engine that is the first BMW-bred six cylinder to combine revolutionary Valvetronic throttle-less intake technology, High Precision direct fuel injection, and twinpower turbocharging. The result: an X5 with incredibly spontaneous responsiveness, exceptional power, and remarkable efficiency. With a single twin-scroll turbocharger it will perform 0-60 in 6.4 seconds and features an output of 300 hp and 300 lb-ft torque, at the same pace of a V-8.

Unlike other all-wheel-drive systems, we've built ours with rear wheel bias for surefooted grip on slick roads, without sacrificing the feel of rear wheel drive. It smartly sends power to the wheel or wheels with the surest footing - and it does so in milliseconds. That means under normal conditions, drive forces are spread out with a rear-wheel bias. But the moment the system senses excessive wheel slip, it subtly shifts torque to meet the changing conditions, offering maximum available traction and superior handling on all surfaces.

BMW Apps is an optional feature of BMW ConnectedDrive. It is a unique interface that allows an iPhone iOS 4.x to play apps specially modified for BMW and BMW approved 3rd party apps. Imagine listening to Web Radio while you drive – or accessing your Twitter or Facebook accounts in the display monitor. With your Smartphone, use the iPod Out function to select music tracks, compile playlists and use Genius (if enabled) to find similar sounds.

Nasty weather. Terrible road conditions. A deer crossing. When a driver loses control, there's usually more than one factor involved. Using built-in sensors to continually monitor multiple variables - such as speed, steering angle, yaw, brake pressure and traction - our Dynamic Stability Control system can detect and, more importantly, help correct the loss of wheel traction immediately. All of which helps to keep you in control, no matter what the circumstances.

When we wanted to connect an MP3 player directly to our vehicle's sound system, we went straight to the experts at Apple. Together, we created the world's first seamless integrated system of iPod and automobile. Just plug your iPod or iPhone into the adapter accessory. Control the volume and your playlists through the multifunction steering wheel, while your iPod or iPhone stays out of view with a constant flow of power. There's also a convenient, standard auxiliary input jack, which allows you to play any MP3 through the audio system.

Life demands flexibility. So we've designed the X5 to be as comfortable for seven people as it is capable at hauling cargo. Not only have we added the convenience of an optional third-row seat, but we've made it versatile enough to fit your many needs. Because the second row acts as two independent seats, it's easy to get in and out, from either the right or left sides. And since the seats also fold flat, you enjoy optimal cargo capacity.

With the route taken care of, you can concentrate on more important things - like enjoying every twist and turn along the way. Our optional onboard navigation system, controlled via iDrive, uses GPS satellites, a digital map and, where available, Real Time Traffic Information (RTTI) to guide you to your destination. Choose the fastest route, the shortest route or the one that avoids traffic. Where available, traffic information is received by a separate radio tuner and then displayed on the navigation system. You don't have to listen to a specific radio station, or even have the radio on, to receive updates every few minutes. And you can see everything clearly on the large, high-resolution screen.
