The 2027 BMW X5 configurator is live, so we built the most expensive version possible.  

The 2027 BMW X5 is a radical departure for the beloved SUV. It’s bigger than before and gets an all-new design inside and out. The price starts at $73,450 for the 2027 X5 40 xDrive, and the configurator is now live, so we built the most expensive version—and it’s pricey.  

The 2027 X5 40 xDrive we built costs $95,400 out the door, including the $1,350 destination charge. That gets you a turbocharged 3.0-liter straight-six engine with 394 horsepower and 428 pound-feet of torque.

Starting on the exterior, these were the most expensive options we could find:

The M Sport Professional pack adds the most upgrades. You get the Shadowline trim, M Sport brakes, the Adaptive M Suspension, and 22-inch wheels (which we then upgraded to 23 inches).

On the interior, we also went all out on upgrades:

The Luxury Package unlocks the passenger screen and automatic doors. The Climate Package adds heated and ventilated seats, massaging front seats, and four-zone climate control. You can get a Bowers and Wilkins sound system and manual rear window shades as part of the Technology Package.  

On the safety front, there are a few specific options you can choose from—none of them are all that pricey:

The Parking Assistance Package includes surround view monitoring, while the Driving Assistance Professional Package adds partially automated driver assistance. The available trailer hitch results in the loss of the foot-kick functionality for hands-free tailgate opening.  

All those options bring the X5’s price tag to over $95,000. That doesn’t include a handful of dealer-installed accessories or a full maintenance plan, which can push the final asking price to over $100,000.

Expect the plug-in hybrid and electric versions to cost even more.

Motor1’s Take: The new BMW X5 can get expensive quite quickly. There are just over $20,000 in available packages and options on the entry-level trim, and we expect the higher X5 variants to cost even more.
