X5

Breadcrumbs

Fatter new seven-seat X5 places it firmly in the a size category above X3 now - it's bigger inside too thankfully. Can't go too much off the road.

Comfort

Refined, comfortable, and covers large distances with your Armani still smelling the way it should be.
Performance

One of those first SUVs that was designed for the Nurburgring more than for the Sahara.
Cool

We aren't mighty fans, but in a country that gives respect to big SUVs, you might be considered cool if you are inside one.
Quality

Nice and BMW.
Handling

It's heavy and is against all principles of physics and motion. Yet, it works.
Practicality

Seven seats or a lot of luggage space on offer. But we doubt it enjoys Chandni Chowk or Charni Road.
Running costs

Extremely thirsty. Even the diesel. Someone has to pay for all that weight. It's only justified that it is you.
