2009 BMW X5 Trims and Specs

The famous 3.0-liter six-cylinder BMW engine powers the 2009 BMW X5 xDrive30i and comes mated to a six-speed shiftable automatic. All-wheel drive and traction control are standard features, along with 18-inch alloys, roof rails, a rear spoiler, steering-linked xenon headlights, and foglights. Vinyl upholstery adorns the 10-way power front bucket and split-folding rear seats, while leather wraps the power tilt and telescoping steering wheel. Dual-zone automatic climate controls offer comfort, while entertainment is handled by an AM/FM/CD/MP3 player with integrated digital-media player connection. The driver gets a tachometer and cruise control, a trip computer, and illuminated visor mirrors, as well as a memory system for the seat, heated power mirrors, and the steering wheel. Power windows and door locks are joined by a power sunroof and remote-keyless entry for convenience. The variable-intermittent front wipers are rain-sensing and come with heated washers, while the rear glass is covered by a rear wiper and washer combination.

For safety in the 2009 BMW X5 xDrive30i, there are dual front, front-side, and front and second-row curtain airbags with rollover deployment, antilock four-wheel disc brakes with brake assist and anti-skid, hill descent control, a tire pressure monitor, and daytime running lights.

Moving up to the 2009 BMW X5 xDrive35d gets you turbodiesel power from a 3.0-liter six-cylinder engine. A shiftable six-speed automatic is still the transmission of choice, aided by all-wheel drive as well as traction and hill descent control. Roof rails and a rear spoiler sit atop the X5, and the entire package rolls on 18-inch alloys. The headlights are steering-linked xenon units and paired with foglights. Variable-intermittent front wipers are rain-sensing, come with heated washers, and share glass duty with a rear wiper and washer combination. Power windows, door locks, and heated power mirrors are standard, as is a power sunroof. Remote-keyless entry is included, along with a CD and MP3-compatible stereo that also gets a digital-media player connection with controls on the power-tilt and telescoping leather-wrapped steering wheel. Front seats are vinyl, 10-way power buckets, while the rear is a split-folding unit, also in vinyl. The driver enjoys a memory system for the seat, mirrors, and steering wheel, as well as a tachometer, cruise control, trip computer, and illuminated visor mirrors.

Dual front, front-side, and curtain side airbags for the front and second rows are included, the last with rollover deployment. Antilock four-wheel disc brakes bring things to a halt with the help of brake assist and anti-skid, and a tire pressure monitor and daytime running lights are all standard on the 2009 BMW X5 xDrive35d.

Leather upholstery and V8 power await anyone who decides the 2009 BMW X5 xDrive48i is the vehicle for them, with its 4.8-liter V8 engine replacing the 3.0-liter six-cylinder powerplant in the other X5 trims. Delivery to all four 18-inch alloys is handled by a shiftable six-speed automatic transmission with the aid of traction and hill descent control and a load-leveling suspension. Leather front bucket seats have 10-way power, and are separated by a center console. Rear occupants get a split-folding seat, also in leather. Power windows, door locks, heated power mirrors, and a power sunroof are all standard features, as well as remote keyless entry. The stereo is a single-CD unit with MP3 compatibility and a digitial-media connection. Additional controls for the stereo can be found on the power tilt and telescoping, leather-wrapped steering wheel. A memory system for the driver controls the steering wheel, seat, and mirrors. Additional driver-specific features include a tachometer, cruise control, trip computer, and illuminated visor mirrors.

Outside, look to roof rails and a rear spoiler, steering-linked xenon headlights, foglights, and rain-sensing, variable-intermittent front wipers with heated washers. The rear glass is kept sparkling with a wiper and washer combination.

Dual front, front-side, and curtain side airbags with rollover deployment for the front and second rows are included. Antilock four-wheel disc brakes with brake assist and anti-skid are standard, and a tire pressure monitor and daytime running lights are also included with the 2009 BMW X5 xDrive48i.
