In February 2010, BMW introduced a new facelift for the X5 SUV.
The facelift mildly affected the car’s front and rear fascia, with the most easily distinguishable being the restyled front bumper and front apron and restyled taillights. The rear bumper and tailpipe surrounds were also redesigned. The new BMW X5 is equipped with adaptive brake lights, runflat safety tires and a tire defect indicator. BMW implemented its EfficientDynamics suite on all the new X5 models and revised its entire engine lineup to achieve substantial fuel efficiency and lowered CO2 emissions. Another important feature of the new X5 is that all models are fitted with an 8-speed automatic gearbox with Steptronic as standard. BMW also made sure its new technologies, like the Head-up Display, Adaptive Cornering Headlights, High-Beam Assistant, Park Distance Control and reversing camera with Surround View, Active Cruise Control with Stop & Go function, Lane Departure Warning, Speed limit Info and Side View are all available for the BMW X5.
