Review 2026 BMW X5 Specs Comparison
The appeal of the 2026 BMW X5 lies in its versatility, and that's made clear by its range of powertrain options. Your choice of 2026 X5 engines is expansive enough to include both a fire-breathing Turbo V8 featuring up to 617 horsepower -- that's over 100 horses more than the next-most powerful SUV here -- and a plug-in hybrid good for 38 miles of all-electric range.
How does the competition stack up to all this? The short answer is that they don't. Neither the Lexus or Mercedes-Benz SUVs can compete on horsepower, and as for performance, both rivals are over a half-second slower than the BMW X5 0-60 mph time of 3.7 seconds. Data like this makes choosing a new X5 in Tennessee an easy decision.
