The market launch of the first variants of the new BMW X5 is scheduled for late November 2026, with the all-electric iX5 and plug‑in hybrid versions to follow in early 2027. Production of the new models will ramp up some months ahead of this, with BMW Group Plant Spartanburg (USA) initiating series production of the fifth-generation BMW X5 in August 2026.
Plant Spartanburg has been producing the X5 ever since it was launched – founding a new market segment – in 1999. And now the facility is celebrating a new premiere: the new BMW iX5 will be the first all-electric vehicle to be manufactured there. The new factory for sixth-generation high-voltage batteries built for this model variant adjacent to BMW Group Plant Spartanburg requires no fossil fuels for normal operations.
The new BMW iX5 – the first battery-electric BMW X5 – is launching with the sixth generation of BMW’s eDrive technology. This means longer ranges of up to 845 kilometres (525 miles) in the BMW iX5 60 xDrive, fast charging, 800V technology and practical bidirectional charging. This is thanks to new cylindrical cells with a height of 120 millimetres, installed in the high-voltage battery and in use for the first time in the new BMW iX5.
High-quality M Performance Parts are available for the BMW X5. Highlights of the range include striking exterior items such as the M Performance front splitter carbon fibre, M Performance roof spoiler black high-gloss, M Performance rear diffuser aramid and M Performance exterior mirror caps aramid. Also available are M Performance summer and winter complete wheels in 21- and 23-inch formats. The cabin can likewise be given an even sportier look with items such as the M Performance floor mats.
