About this generation

Refined executive utility emphasizing aerodynamically sculpted bodywork, plug-in hybrid efficiency, and plush luxury.

Debuting in 2013, the F15 X5 brought a sharper visual signature featuring Air Curtains, Air Breathers, and headlights seamlessly merging into the wider kidney grille. The cabin reached new heights of luxury with optional Design Pure Experience themes and dynamic ambient lighting.

The F15 introduced the xDrive40e plug-in hybrid alongside proven twin-turbo six and eight-cylinder engines. Combining lower curb weight with supple suspension tuning, it catered to drivers seeking relaxed long-distance cruising without sacrificing signature BMW composure.
