BMW X models (1999)
In 1999, BMW established a new market segment with the off-road BMW X5. The “Sports Activity Vehicle” combines BMW’s quintessential sheer driving pleasure with the all-terrain character of an off-road vehicle. There are now four BMW X models – BMW X1, BMW X3, BMW X5 and BMW X6 – and they have proved key to the success of the company.
BMW X5 4.4i
The BMW X5 powered by a 4.4 litre eight-cylinder engine was a very classic combination which harmonised perfectly with the automatic transmission. The engine changed fundamentally during 2003 while this model was being manufactured. Whereas the engine generating 286 hp from the third generation of the BMW 7 Series was used until 2003, the completely new V8 engine with maximum power of 320 hp and VALVETRONIC were installed from 2003.
