The standout strength is Performance at 10/10.

Is the 2024 BMW X5 reliable?

Owners rate it 4.83/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

The owner feedback points to a dependable-feeling ownership experience, with praise for smooth hybrid operation and technology that owners value in daily use. The expert review also describes the X5 as well put together, with a sense of precision in how it’s assembled, which supports confidence in day-to-day durability.

BMW also includes complimentary scheduled maintenance for three years or 36,000 miles, which helps reduce early ownership costs. For used buyers, the main long-term risk is that a luxury SUV with advanced systems can become expensive if prior maintenance was skipped.

What should I look for when buying a used 2024 BMW X5?

Accident-free inventory is excellent at 91.4% — clean inventory, standard diligence applies.

You should still run a vehicle history report and prioritize a pre-purchase inspection, especially if you’re considering a higher-spec example with more equipment. Focus on condition, maintenance records, and whether the technology and driver-assistance features work as intended. Because this is a premium SUV, small issues can become expensive if they’ve been ignored.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The X5 is available with a turbocharged inline six-cylinder engine, a turbo-six plug-in hybrid powertrain, a turbocharged V8 engine, and a high-performance turbo V8 variant. The six-cylinder and plug-in hybrid models offer Sport and M Sport trim packages, and the M Sport treatment changes the look enough that some buyers may prefer the cleaner styling of other setups.
• Powertrain: You can shop versions with a turbocharged inline six-cylinder, a turbo-six PHEV setup, a turbocharged V8, or the X5 M Competition’s more powerful turbo V8. The plug-in hybrid is the standout for buyers who want strong acceleration and electric-only driving range.
• Safety package: BMW adds Highway Assistant hands-free driving assistance for 2024. It works with Assisted Driving Plus cruise control mode and uses indicators in the digital display or head-up display to show when it’s ready. Advanced safety features are not standard across the lineup.
• Infotainment: The X5 uses a 12.3-inch digital instrument panel paired with a 14.9-inch touchscreen running BMW Operating System 8.5. It includes wireless Apple CarPlay, wireless Android Auto, over-the-air software updates, connected services, and cloud-based navigation.
• Fuel efficiency: The plug-in hybrid is rated at 22 mpg in combined driving, and BMW says it can travel about 38 miles on electric power alone.

Which 2024 BMW X5 trim should I buy?

The 2024 BMW X5 is offered in 4 trim levels: sDrive40i, xDrive40i, xDrive50e, M60i.

Here's the short version:

• sDrive40i: This is the entry point if you want the X5 experience at the lowest starting point. It gives you the core luxury-SUV formula, but you’ll want to compare it carefully against the better-equipped options if you care about value.
• xDrive40i: This is the best-value choice for many shoppers because it adds BMW’s xDrive all-wheel drive while keeping the familiar six-cylinder setup. If you want the most balanced non-hybrid version, this is the one to focus on.
• xDrive50e: This is the standout pick if you want the most compelling mix of performance and efficiency. The expert review calls it the favorite version of the SUV, and it’s the one to buy if electric range matters to you.
• M60i: This is the choice for buyers who want the V8 experience and stronger straight-line performance. It makes sense if you’re prioritizing power over efficiency or price.

BMW’s Highway Assistant is part of the 2024 safety story, but advanced safety features are not standard across the lineup.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2024 BMW X5?

This is a moderate market for selective buyers, so you can shop with some leverage if you’re patient.

• Deal availability: 37.0% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 3,526 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 7.85% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 91.4% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $52,469, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2024 BMW X5's resale value?

The current average of $52,469 sits slightly below last year's $56,935.

That price movement suggests the X5 has softened enough to create a better buying opportunity now, but it also means future sellers may face some pressure if the market stays soft. If you buy well and keep the vehicle in strong condition, you’ll be better positioned to recover value later. The model’s premium image and broad appeal help support demand, even if it isn’t the strongest value play in the segment.

Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.83/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2024 BMW X5 safe?

The 2024 X5 earns four-star ratings from NHTSA.

It earns a 7/10 safety score from our experts.

BMW’s Highway Assistant hands-free driving assistance system is the headline safety feature for 2024. It works with Assisted Driving Plus cruise control mode and can operate subtly in the background when conditions are right. The system is best in dense, slow-moving traffic or light traffic at higher speeds, but the expert review notes some erratic braking behavior in heavier traffic and around roadside obstacles.

The IIHS gave the X5 high ratings, but lower headlight ratings kept it from earning an award for this model year. Advanced safety features are not standard, so you should verify exactly which driver-assistance equipment is included on any used example you’re considering.

Should I buy a 2024 BMW X5 or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2024 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2024 if:

• 37.0% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Accident-free inventory is excellent at 91.4% — clean inventory, standard diligence applies.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 7.85% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4.83/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• The 2024 adds Highway Assistant hands-free driving assistance and a more modern curved display setup.

Consider the 2025 if:

• At $60,005, the 2025 costs more than the current year's $52,469 average.
• It mainly adds a limited-edition anniversary model.

The bottom line: If you want the better value, the 2024 is the smarter buy because it combines a lower average price with strong owner satisfaction and meaningful updates. If you’re price-sensitive, the 2024 gives you the more compelling mix of features and market softness, while the 2025 makes sense mainly if you specifically want the newer model year.
