Awd 4. 8l v8 loaded awd all wheel drive, sunroof, heated leather seats, power seats, 4. 8l v8 350 horsepower engine, am/fm/cd/aux, cruise control, tilt telescopic wheel, air conditioning, keyless entry, power windows, power locks ten years ago, the idea of a performance suv would have been sillier than the thought of a hit tv show featuring wayne newton and marie osmond dancing about in evening wear to dolly parton music. Okay, maybe not sillier, but still pretty eyebrow-raising. Yet the bmw x5 has quelled the notion that suvs have to be sloppy-handling behemoths. Now in the second year of its second generation, the x5 has a lot more competition than it originally did, as a slew of premium automakers have followed bmw's suit with their own entries that pay more attention to ‘sport‘ than ‘utility.‘the 2008 bmw x5 is a midsize luxury suv available in two trim levels: 3. 0si and 4. 8i. Standard equipment on the 3. 0si includes 18-inch wheels, adaptive xenon headlights, cruise control, a panoramic sunroof, dual-zone climate control, 10-way power front seats with driver memory, a power tilt-telescoping steering column, vinyl ‘leatherette‘ upholstery, the idrive electronics interface and a 12-speaker sound system with two subwoofers, cd player and an auxiliary audio jack. The bmw x5 comes with either a six-cylinder or v8 engine. The 4. 8i gets, predictably, a 4. 8-liter v8 good for 350 hp and 350 lb-ft of torque. Both engines are coupled to a six-speed automatic transmission and all-wheel drive. In performance testing, the x5 4. 8i went from zero to 60 mph in 7 seconds. The x5 comes standard with antilock brakes, traction control, stability control, brake drying and standby features, a rollover sensor, front side airbags and side curtain airbags for the first and second rows. A rearview camera and front and rear parking sensors are optional. The insurance institute for highway safety gave the 2008 bmw x5 its highest score of ‘good‘ for both the frontal-offset and side impact crash tests. The new x5's interior is one of the most elegant bmw has ever built. The dash is gently curved, with handsome wood inlays, generously sized air vents, oversized instrumentation and a truly gorgeous soft-feeling top that unifies the whole design. Last year's complete redesign gave the x5 an added dose of both sport and utility.
