Comparing the 2024 BMW X5 vs. X7? You’re not alone. Both models can seat up to seven, but the X7 is larger and more luxurious than its mid-range counterpart. With that said, the X5 is a great choice if you’re looking for a balance of power and agility. It can even be optioned as a plug-in hybrid—and that makes it the more efficient choice too. Below, we break down all the details in this year’s X7 vs. X5 matchup.
If you’re anything like most drivers who compare the BMW X5 vs. X7, then you need a vehicle with three rows of seating. As noted above, both models can seat up to seven. However, where the X5 offers third-row seating as an option, the X7 includes the feature as standard.
As a result, the third-row seats in the X5 are not quite as spacious as those in the X7. Comparing the total cargo space offered by each model can help you get a sense of how these two SUVs measure up on size:
When the rear seats are upright, the available cargo space in the X7 translates directly to extra legroom for your third-row seated passengers.
If you don’t need a third-row, you’ll find the X5 to be the more economical choice. You might even decide to go with the compact X3.
Which model is the better performer, X5 or X7? It all comes down to what you’re looking for:
