TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2013 BMW X5
| 2013 BMW X5 Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||
| Year | Comment | |
| 2014 | BMW's multicontour seats, a $1,300 option on six-cylinder X5s and standard with the V8, deliver a rarely matched combination of support in turns and comfort on long drives. In a reversal of traditional tendencies, the buckets in the Range Rover Sport feel firmer and less comfortable. Though you'll find a commanding view forward in either driver seat, the Range Rover Sport maintains an edge in this area. Unusually large windows are one thing that makes a Land Rover a Land Rover. see full BMW X5 review | |
| 2013 BMW X5 Seat Room and Comfort: Cons | ||
| Year | Comment | |
| Audi and Mercedes both offer much longer SUVs. At least until BMW fields an X7, the X5 is available with an optional third-row seat. Especially considering the size and price of the X5, said third row is absurdly tight, thinly upholstered, and difficult to access. The door openings are small, and the entire second row seat pivots forward and upward off the floor in an only partially successful attempt to compensate. To provide even minimal legroom for those using it, the second row must slide forward a few inches, to the point that its occupants find their own legroom severely compromised. Both rows are too low to the floor for adult comfort. The third-row seat optional in the Range Rover Sport probably isn't much better, and deletes the spare tire (not available on the BMW regardless). This might explain why it wasn't on the tested vehicle. If you want a usable third row, Land Rover offers the less stylish, but also much less expensive and roomier LR4. Shift focus to the second-row seat, and I found that in the smaller X3 at least as comfortable, and easier to get into and out of thanks to the more compact vehicle's lower ride height. That in the Range Rover Sport, though also not the roomiest or the most comfortable, is better than the X5's. see full BMW X5 review | ||

| 2013 BMW X5 Powertrain: Pros | ||
| Year | Comment | |
| 2014 | I've found the performance of the 300-horsepower xDrive35i (tested in the previous generation) well beyond adequate. I similarly found the 340-horsepower Range Rover Sport HSE to be satisfyingly quick. But if you want your tall, wide, two-and-a-half-ton conveyance to be brutally quick, then step up to a V8. Don't let the X5's on-paper power shortfall fool you. BMW tends to under-rate its engines, and the X5 is about as quick (if not quicker) than a Range Rover Sport with the same cylinder count. The V8s can get from a dead stop to 60 mph in about five seconds. The BMW engines make less mechanical noise, and generally sound and feel smoother. But if you appreciate a clearly audible burble from the exhaust, you'll get it with the BMW V8. Munich likely figured that V8 buyers want to hear the additional cylinders for which they're paying $4,700--each--and fits a sport exhaust as standard equipment. see full BMW X5 review | |

The diesel X5 is powerful and sure-footed. Heavy,which shows up in both a feeling of safety while driving, and a sticker shock at the fuel pump.
The transmission is ok, except when cold, when it's a little unwilling to up-shift. Similarly, if it's even a little cool, it can slightly clunk from a full stop, as the torque converter spools up, and the transmission engaglook
