BMW X5 compared to the Lexus RX at Tom Bush BMW

When looking at luxury SUVs, it might be difficult to see which one is right for you, but our team at Tom Bush BMW Jacksonville is here to help. We put some of the most impressive models up against each other so that you can have a clear view of which is right for your lifestyle. The 2021 BMW X5 and the 2021 Lexus RX are two of the top models in the category, and we want to show you the ways that the X5 might be better suited to your needs.

Performance

The BMW X5 makes it easier to enjoy every minute that you are behind the wheel with more power. The Lexus RX makes a respectable 295 horsepower on most trims and up to 308 net horsepower on their hybrid models, but this still isn't as much as you'll find for the BMW X5. The BMW X5 xDrive40i starts at 335 horsepower, and the BMW M50i makes up to 523 horsepower.

Both models offer all-wheel drive as an upgrade to their lineups. All-wheel drive is helpful near Daytona because it will give you the best traction when there is rain or loose terrain. If you compare the all-wheel drive option for the Lexus and the BMW X5, the X5 gets better fuel efficiency for your city commute through Saint Augustine.

A Better Equipped Interior

The BMW X5 offers more cargo space than the Lexus RX with up to 72.3 cubic feet overall, while the Lexus only has up to 36.2 cubic feet. Packing for a family trip is easier for the BMW X5, allowing you to bring along any gear without cramping your passengers.

It isn't just space that makes the X5 a better choice, but technology too. The BMW X5 comes with Apple CarPlay™ and Android Auto™ smartphone integration as standard, giving you access to your device through the easiest means possible. Both models offer heated front seats standard on most trims and automatic climate control systems, but the BMW offers more intuitive safety features to keep you confident on the highways around Fernandina Beach.
