Tailgate in the BMW X5.
Making loading easier, the two-part tailgate provides excellent access to the luggage compartment. When open, people as tall as 1.85 metres can stand up straight beneath it. When the lower section of the tailgate is open, a flat surface is created that allows luggage to be loaded with ease. And best of all, a mere touch of the remote control button or the push button release triggers the tailgate to rise as if lifted by an invisible hand.

Switch control.
Gear selector in the BMW X5.
The new BMW X5 comes with a completely new electronic gear selector switch. Modern and sporty in design, its ergonomic shape makes it simple to operate. The left-hand shift gate operates the sports automatic mode to allow semi-automatic changes between the six gears. The right-hand shift gate controls the usual fully automatic settings: Drive (D), Neutral (N) and Reverse (R). Park (P) is now activated by pressing a button on the gear selector switch.

Intelligent illumination
In combination with Adaptive Headlights, the new BMW X5 now comes with cornering lights. When cornering, the system automatically switches the corresponding inner fog light to dipped or main beam. An additional reflector in the fog light illuminates an area at an angle of up to 90° to the car, allowing pedestrians, cyclists and obstacles to be seen earlier and more clearly.

Hard to impress
Run-flat tyres on the BMW X5.
Say goodbye to roadside tyre changes. Thanks to special side-wall reinforcement, the BMW X5's standard run-flat tyres are capable of being driven a long distance even after a puncture. The benefits make themselves felt far beyond that. The need for a spare tyre is eliminated, reducing weight and freeing boot space on every single journey. In addition, the standard Tyre Pressure Indicator (TPI) warns the driver whenever there is a drop in tyre pressure.
