Production of the current BMW X5 will cease in November; the all-new, next-generation model is set to enter production in December, with an official market launch scheduled for 2027.

We have recently learned from relevant sources that the current-generation BMW X5 (G18) is set to officially cease production in November. Meanwhile, the all-new generation BMW X5 (G78) is scheduled to enter production in December, with an official market launch expected in 2027. For reference, there are currently four variants of the existing BMW X5 available for sale.

The all-new generation BMW X5 has been filed with the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology. Its exterior fully incorporates BMW’s "New Generation" (Neue Klasse) design philosophy, ensuring a highly distinctive visual identity. The vehicle features innovative dynamic digital LED headlight clusters, which, for the first time, integrate the daytime running lights and low-beam lights into a single design unit. Notably, the new model offers users the ability to switch between two different light signatures: "dual diagonal lines" and a "dual-X" pattern.

In terms of color options, the vehicle will be available in eight exterior paint finishes, including the bespoke Tanzanite Blue, as well as Cape Town Copper and Matte Eucalyptus Green—both of which are exclusive to the Chinese market. The vehicle measures 5141 mm in length, 2000 mm in width, and 1750 mm (or 1735 mm) in height, with a wheelbase of 3165 mm. Additionally, customers can choose from 21-inch, 22-inch, or 23-inch wheels.

In terms of powertrain, the vehicle offers a 2.0T engine (model B48B20N) and a 3.0T engine (model B58B30L), corresponding to the 30L and 40L models, with maximum power outputs of 211 kW and 327 kW, respectively. Additionally, the vehicle will be equipped with an air suspension system.
