New BMW E70 X5 official photos & info! - Page 3

So, it's here.

I've told you you'll be amazed by the press pics. And the car.
Just wait for the all official info with all the goodies under the skin.
So - let me say it again: beefy & aggressive, but not bulky / chuby like E53. Go eat yourselves, ML & Q7, hehe.

j/k

Is this a new chassis and all?

Mikael · 08-08-2006, 08:51 AM

I really like how BMW combined their new design language with the familiar details of the E53. The new front lights remind me of a bird's eyes. The look in the "eyes" is sharp and purposeful. The interior is nice and fresh. Not so many sharp lines as in the 5 Series. The atmosphere inside looks calm and restful.
I don't find anything in the new X5 that could cause contradiction. The new X5 is definately going to be a hit!

Yep - new chasis & suspension. And AdaptiveDrive will be offered of course, and Active Steering, and updated X-drive, and updated iDrive (with 8 shortcut buttons - "fast dial" for entertaiment sources, phone numbers, navigation destinations), and the Steptronic, not to mention much better torsional stiffness (27.000Nm/o ; +15%) & cw value (only 0,33), and do not forget all the electronic goodies etc.

0,33 holy s***, that's better than the M coupe and equall to the old Murcielago.

The x5 looks fantastic, maybe the first bmw for a while to not get a bashing from the press. The key design elements are done nicely, especially the interior, imho i have to say that this interior looks more exciting an inviting the some of audis latest interiors

. But do any of you knwo why that side strip is theer , are they keeping taht on , i havent seen side stripes on a bmw since the e46. thanks guys
