appearance
The cash design continues
First of all, since it is called X5L, the first upgrade is definitely in terms of body size. The new cars have a length, width and height of 5060/2004/1771 (1779) mm, a wheelbase of 3105 mm, and the height may fluctuate depending on the model. Compared with the current model, the body length and wheelbase have been increased by 130mm.
The appearance of the new car is basically the same as that of the imported model, and the front face is still a large "double kidney" grille, but the sides of the front surround are replaced with chic chrome trims, and the overall sense of luxury has increased. Aside from a little size upgrade, the new car can be said to be exactly the same as the imported version in other aspects. However, many netizens feel that it is slightly ugly after the lengthening, after all, the tailgate can obviously feel the proportion of the lengthened from the visual point of view, and the harmonious proportion of the imported version of the figure is gone. But in order to expand the back space, these aesthetic sacrifices are inevitable.
In addition to the 130mm increase in wheelbase compared to the imported version, the size of the new car has been slightly improved in terms of length and height. Compared with GLE and Q7, the domestic X5L also maintains an advantage in terms of wheelbase, and I believe that the driving space in the car is also the best of the four.
Interior
The interior of the domestic version is more refined
The interior of the domestic version is basically the same as the imported version, it is still a familiar interior functional area layout, but in some details, the domestic version is more exquisite than the imported version, like the button position of the multi-functional steering wheel, the domestic version uses metal buttons, and at the same time, a wireless charging board is also added under the center console, and the interior material is also selected with four kinds of wood and so on.
In addition, the middle platform bulge is not high, coupled with the longitudinal space is relatively large, the middle passengers will not feel bent when they put their feet, or there is a more natural sitting posture. In addition, one of the most popular configurations, the panoramic large skylight is naturally not missing, and the area basically covers the head of the rear passenger, which can enhance the open feeling of the rear seat.
Overall, the increase in legroom in the rear row caused by the extended wheelbase is still quite obvious, and the head space is not much different. In addition, the other storage space in the car, including the trunk space, is basically the same as the imported BMW X5.
Power: Still provides 2.0T and 3.0T power
Compared with the imported version, the two power of the domestic BMW X5L have been lowered to varying degrees in the maximum power, and the peak torque is consistent, but the acceleration time of 100 kilometers has also been correspondingly slowed down. This is not consistent with the early published filing information.
In other hardware equipment, the domestic BMW X5L is equipped with an adaptive dual-axis air suspension, which can adjust the chassis height within the plus or minus 40 mm range. For example, the chassis can be raised by 40 mm when off-road, 40 mm when loading goods, and 20 mm when driving at high speeds.
In addition, the entire series is equipped with electronic shock absorbers as standard, which can adjust the damping degree of the shock absorber in real time according to the road conditions, which can further improve the stability and flexibility of the chassis.
In terms of driving assistance, the high-end model is equipped with BMW Automatic Driving Assistance System Pro, which is believed to be familiar to everyone, including traffic congestion assistance, forward collision warning, emergency brake assistance, lane change assistance and a series of driving assistance functions. It is also equipped with the automatic park assist system PLUS, which can support 50 meters of track reversing assistance in addition to conventional automatic parking.
summary
The domestic production of BMW X5L is believed to accelerate the pace of other competitors' domestic production in China. For example, the Chinese BMW factory in Shenyang is also one of the largest in the world, ranking second in the global BMW factory, second in the world, second only to the German Dingefen factory. I believe that the quality will be much stronger than the BMW made in Mexico.
It is worth noting that the imported version of the 2023 mid-term modification X5 road test spy photo has been exposed before, from the spy photo we can find that the front grille that was once camouflaged has been unveiled, although it is still attached to the camouflage car, but it has been clearly seen from the outline that the new X5 will adopt a new bumper style. Other information has not yet been known, I don't know how long the domestic version of X5L will sell? (Text: Pacific Auto Network Chen Qizhen Gao Zijian Ke Kaiwen Photo: Liu Shilei)
