The 2026 BMW X5 xDrive30d is a premium mid-size diesel SUV suited to buyers seeking executive comfort with genuine towing capability, offering 3500kg capacity and a 650-litre boot. Its standout strength is efficiency-the 3.0-litre diesel delivers 219kW and 670Nm while returning 7.8L/100km combined, translating to reasonable running costs around $2203 annually. One consideration: at 2220kg kerb weight, it's a substantial vehicle requiring confidence in urban environments, though the eight-speed automatic and AWD system provide composed on-road manners.

The 2026 BMW X5 xDrive40i is a mid-size luxury SUV that appeals to buyers wanting premium German engineering with practical everyday usability, offering a 3.0-litre petrol engine producing 280kW and 520Nm through all-wheel drive. Its standout strength is the combination of genuine performance-0-100km/h in around 5.8 seconds-with respectable fuel efficiency at 9.3L/100km and a 650-litre boot that expands with folding seats, plus the reassurance of a 5-year warranty. The main consideration is running costs, with annual servicing and consumables typically around $2,203 per year, so factor this into your budget beyond the purchase price.

The 2026 BMW X5 xDrive50e is a premium five-seat plug-in hybrid SUV that suits buyers wanting luxury, performance and low-fuel consumption without full-electric range anxiety, offering 360kW and 700Nm from its 3-litre engine with 100km of pure EV running. Its standout strength is the combination of 1.9L/100km fuel efficiency with genuine all-electric capability for daily commutes, backed by a 500-litre boot and 2700kg towing capacity for family versatility. One thing to consider: running costs of approximately $2203 annually are competitive for this class, but the plug-in hybrid complexity means you'll want a reliable warranty-fortunately BMW's five-year coverage provides solid peace of mind.

The 2026 BMW X5 M60i xDrive is a premium mid-size SUV suited to buyers seeking performance and luxury, combining its 4.4-litre twin-turbo petrol engine's 390kW and 750Nm with all-wheel drive capability and a 3500kg towing capacity. Its standout strength is the balance of power delivery and efficiency-that 390kW output doesn't compromise significantly on fuel economy at 11.9L/100km-making it practical for both spirited driving and daily commutes across Australia's varied terrain. One thing to consider: at 2345kg and with a 650-litre boot, it's heavier and less spacious than some competitors, so verify it suits your payload and cargo needs before committing.

BMW X5 50e xDrive

The BMW X5 50e xDrive is the plug-in hybrid version of the new-generation (G65) BMW X5. BMW Australia says it will be available to order from 2027. BMW has published only provisional figures for it so far, so no price or specifications are listed here yet.

BMW X5 40d xDrive

The BMW X5 40d xDrive is a diesel grade of the new G65 generation X5. BMW Australia says the X5 40 xDrive and 40d xDrive will be available from late 2026, and for now it invites buyers to register their interest rather than order. BMW Australia's configurator lists a six-cylinder diesel engine with four-wheel drive and describes the output as "composed of internal combustion drive 210 kW and electric drive up to 13 kW". BMW Australia's technical-data page lists the powertrain type as "Diesel, 48 Volt Mild-Hybrid", which is why we file the car as a mild hybrid. BMW Australia has announced pricing through its media site, which requires a login. Its public configurator shows a Manufacturer's Recommended Drive-away Price that depends on the buyer's postcode. CarSorted stores no price for this car until BMW publishes a list price on a page we can read.

The BMW X5 40 xDrive is a petrol grade of the new G65 generation X5. BMW Australia says the X5 40 xDrive and 40d xDrive will be available from late 2026, and for now it invites buyers to register their interest rather than order. BMW Australia's configurator lists a six-cylinder petrol engine with four-wheel drive and describes the output as "composed of internal combustion drive 294 kW and electric drive up to 13 kW". Because of that small electric drive we class the car as a mild hybrid; that label is ours, and BMW's configurator does not use it.
