What BMW X5 do most buyers choose?

The BMW X5 years with the most listings are 2025, 2023, and 2024.

Most model years in the table are down year over year, which is good news if you're shopping used and want to benefit from softer pricing.

That suggests recent X5s are still adjusting in price, but not as sharply as some earlier model years.
