The Car Connection's Take

TCC Rating

8.4 Read Our Full Review 8.2 Read Our Full Review

TCC’s Bottom Line

It doesn't pop with the styling or interior plushness of its competitors, but the 2012 BMW X5 has the powerful X5 M and frugal diesel up its sleeve. The 2012 BMW X6 is no longer alone in the coupe-like SUV market, but it remains one of the best options, for its performance, luxury, utility, and style.

TCC Likes

  • Intuitive steering feel
  • Ample power
  • Responsive handling
  • Sleek coupe-like upper half
  • Very comfortable seating
  • Smooth-shifting gearbox

TCC Dislikes

  • Conservative, even stale styling
  • Expensive
  • Tricky iDrive system
  • Bulky, trucklike lower half
  • Requires premium fuel
  • Options add to the price quickly
