THE BMW X5 XDRIVE40E is a piece
of automotive history in the making.
With the appearance, comfort and
stability of a Sports Activity Vehicle
but the consumption of a small car,
this impressive plug-in hybrid has
something to offer urban drivers and
commuters alike. Permanent all-wheel
drive and the BMW EfficientDynamics
eDrive technology endow the BMW X5
xDrive40e with sensational sportiness
and supreme poise on the one hand,
and outstanding efficiency on the other.
(The eDrive lettering at the rear, front
and side door sills are perhaps the only,
albeit subtle, optical difference to its
counterpart, the BMW X5.)
The BMW X5 xDrive40e offers its
driver a chance to influence the energy

can drive for about 30 kilometres in
Max eDrive mode without using a single

addition of the predictive selection feature,
which allows you to enter a destination
into the navigation system, and let your
car decide the best and most efficient
mode to select.
Whether at a conventional household
power socket or using the BMW i Wallbox,
charging the high-voltage battery of the
BMW X5 xDrive40e couldn’t be easier.
IN SHORT Impressive driving dynamics,
outstanding efficiency and top ecofriendliness makes the BMW X5
xDrive40e a unique and innovative
concept that is perfectly tailored to the
qualities of a Sports Activity Vehicle.
