2010 BMW X5 M Review & Test Drive

Soccer Moms need not apply. This BMW SUV is not your everyday “pick-up-the-kids” type of wagon that you are accustomed to seeing in your local township. After all, this is one of the fastest production SUV’s around.

The new 2010 BMW X5 M is a new endeavor for the BMW Motorsport family that incorporates for the first time, a forced induction engine. As part of a so-called initiative to be more efficient, BMW has brought forced induction back into its driving machines starting with the 335’s inline 6 cylinder and now the infamous 4.4 liter V8 has been reworked to include twin turbos giving the new X5M and X6M 555hp and 500 ft-lbs of torque.

BMW X5 M Spotted In Black – Spy Photo

We recently showed you a behind the scenes clip showcasing the development of the new BMW X6M and now we have an exclusive spy shot of what seems to be the upcoming BMW X5 M at the BMW Performance Delivery Center. The photo was taken by Gadgetman, aka Darren who happens to be a good friend of AutomotiveAddicts.com’s owner.

Speculation is that the new BMW X5 M should be similar to the X6 M in performance. BMW is probably hoping that this will attract more consumers to the Sports Utility Vehicles with having a great gain in the performance arena. The BMW X5 was already a big hit and now the BMW X5 M should not disappoint, at least not in the performance area when it may sport a new twin turbo V8 or the n/a V10 from the M5 as rumored.
