SMC Asia Car Distributors Corp., the official importer and distributor of BMW in the Philippines, has announced an addition to its premium Sports Activity Vehicle (SAV) lineup: the BMW X5 xDrive50e xLine Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV).
This new variant arrives as a limited release, with only 50 units made available nationwide. Bringing an unmatched blend of commanding performance, sophisticated design elements, and advanced electrified efficiency, this premium vehicle is designed to elevate the modern driving experience.
In an era of volatile fuel prices, the new BMW X5 xDrive50e xLine emerges as a highly practical choice for the premium automotive market. It offers the best of the both worlds—the silent, cost-efficient, and emission-free benefits of a pure electric vehicle for daily urban travel, backed by the long-range flexibility and robust power of a traditional combustion engine for weekend getaways.
Like the X5 xDrive50e M Sport, the new BMW X5 xDrive50e xLine is powered by a 3.0-liter 6-cylinder gasoline engine paired with a synchronous electric motor Together, this setup delivers a combined output of 489 horsepower and 700 Nm of torque, rocketing the vehicle from zero to 100 km/h in just 4.8 seconds. It offers a generous pure electric driving range of 100 to 118 kilometers under WLTP testing, allowing for completely emission-free daily city commutes.
Sporting the xLine trim, the exterior design strikes a perfect balance between athleticism and elegance, highlighted by the classic xLine treatment and an Exterior Line in Satin Aluminum. Up front, the iconic BMW Kidney Grille boasts the “Iconic Glow” illumination, complemented by 19-inch light alloy wheels in V-spoke style 734 and a standard adaptive two-axle air suspension. To heighten safety and sensory awareness, the vehicle features acoustic protection for pedestrians alongside BMW IconicSounds Electric, which delivers immersive acoustic feedback inside the cabin during electric driving.
Inside, passengers are treated to a modern sanctuary wrapped in premium Sensafin Décor Stitching upholstery and accented by exquisite fine-wood trim in “Fineline Stripe” brown high-gloss. The driver-centric cockpit debuts the BMW Live Cockpit Plus, utilizing a seamless curved widescreen setup comprised of a 12.3-inch Digital Instrument Cluster and a 14.9-inch display running on the state-of-the-art iDrive Operating System 8.5. Other premium interior conveniences include sport seats equipped with lumbar support, a HiFi loudspeaker system, a Comfort Access System, and a wireless charging tray, while comprehensive safety is ensured via integrated Driving and Parking Assistants.
Customers can select from a brilliant palette of metallic exterior finishes including Mineral White, Black Sapphire, Manhattan, Skyscraper Grey, and Blue Ridge Mountain, paired with premium Sensafin interior tones including Black, Coffee, or Cognac.
The BMW X5 xDrive50e xLine PHEV is offered at P 5,498,000.00 and comes complete with a portable flexi charger, a 5-year comprehensive BMW warranty (or 200,000km, whichever comes first), and an 8-year warranty for the electric battery (or 120,000km, whichever comes first).
