Engineering first

The second-generation X5 that proved the original wasn't a fluke. The E70 was bigger, more capable, and spawned the X5 M — the first M-division SUV.

History

The X5 M's 4.4-liter twin-turbo V8 produced 555 hp, making it faster than many sports cars. The E70 also introduced the third row of seats, expanding the X5's family appeal.
