BMW unveiled the "New BMW X5 and the first BMW iX5 Long Wheelbase," a model exclusively designed for the Chinese market, on the 27th.
This new model combines the design and technological innovations of the BMW X5 with the future-oriented technologies of the Neue Klasse, developed to actively reflect the demands of customers in the Chinese automotive market. Its most defining feature is a wheelbase of 3,165mm, extended by 130mm compared to global specifications, offering spacious interior room and providing an exceptional ride quality and stable driving experience from the rear seats. The side profile achieves an elegant and dignified appearance with its unique proportions.
The exterior features a front fascia redesigned exclusively for the Chinese market and diagonal light icons that can be switched to a double X design according to customer preferences. Additional light strips between the light icons and the BMW Kidney Iconic Glow emphasize depth in the design, implementing dynamic welcome and goodbye animations. The interior is based on a new monochrome color concept, harmonizing premium materials such as slate and glass. A three-dimensional backlit accent strip has been applied, and the panoramic iDrive system along with the first-ever passenger screen in the X5 have been installed. The rear seats are equipped with the next-generation BMW Theater Screen, featuring 8K streaming and video conferencing capabilities.
All models come standard with adaptive two-axle air suspension to effectively absorb road shocks. For over 20 years, BMW has led the development of driver assistance systems by prioritizing safety and reliability. The driving assistance system supports end-to-end AI-based "address-free" autonomous driving assistance developed in collaboration with Momenta and integrates with "Heart of Joy." The powertrain consists of the New BMW X5 and the all-electric iX5 equipped with a sixth-generation eDrive system. The iX5 can travel up to 1,000km on a single charge based on CLTC standards. Official market launch is scheduled for early 2027.
