After this modification session the X5’s lower front fascia will be changed into the larger outboard air whereas the rear bumper gets re-sculpted and both ends get more of their bodywork painted the car’s main color instead of black.

The more important changes are underhood, however, where both gasoline engines have been replaced.

The X5 will be getting a 400-horse twin-turbo 4.4-liter engine which will make this X5 all turbo. The X5 would make its debut in coming April at the New York Auto Show.
