Is a BMW X5 a long distance vehicle? If one asks the question whether this automobile is also suitable for longer highway stages, one has to consider different aspects, comfort, tank volume, top speed...
The tank capacity of 83 liters leads one to believe that drivers of a BMW X5 could cover long distances with it. However, if you look at the average consumption of 12.8 liters / 100km, it quickly becomes clear - with a corresponding gas foot, you have to expect frequent fuel stops. An important criterion for frequent drivers: the top speed. This is 250 km/h and is thus definitely suitable for long distances. Comfort and interior space are at least as important on long journeys. With a length of 4938 mm, the car is among the very large ones. Expect a comfortably equipped vehicle here even in the standard equipment.
The integrated distance cruise control ensures both safe and relaxed travel by automatically maintaining both the speed and the distance to the vehicle in front. In unclear parking situations, the built-in rear view camera helps to avoid accidents. The integrated lane departure warning system helps the driver stay on the lane.
The BMW X5 is generously dimensioned, has numerous comfort features, and can be moved at a reasonably brisk pace - if it weren't for the short range. If that doesn't bother you, this vehicle is an extremely comfortable long-distance companion.
