Spy Photos: 2010 Bmw X5 Facelift
By Andrew C., 27 Aug, 2010. 0 Comments
We've seen many spy pictures of the BMW X5 but this is the clearest of the lot. These were captured around the Spartanburg plant in Germany. The new X6-style front headlights and the familiar kidney front grille are similar to those seen on the recently launched BMW 5-Series GT. The front bumper is almost identical to the one found on the BMW X6, with larger air intakes and new front fog light surrounds. A new bumper at the rear features, while other additions at the rear include new lights and a trapezoid-shaped exhaust system. Interior modifications are still a mystery. So far, it's been speculated that the car will have a next-generation iDrive system and a larger LCD display screen. The engine range will remain relatively unchanged. Expected to be added to the range are BMW's new 3.0-litre twin-turbo diesel, a revised straight-six 3.0-litre turbocharged petrol unit and 4.4-litre V8 unit from the BMW X6 xDrive 50i. The new BMW X5 will be launched at the Detroit Motor Show in 2010 before going on sale later in the year. No release date has been confirmed.
