BMW X5 Estate (2000-2006) boot space, practicality and safety

Looking for a different model? (change model)
Practicality rating: 4 out of 54.0

Written by Parkers Published: 6 June 2019

About as safe as they get whether you crash or avoid an accident in the first place. Full marks in Euro NCAP crash test, eight airbags and electronic chassis controls that will even stabilise anything being towed.

There are bigger boots in the class but there’s still plenty of useable space and it’s made more accessible by a split tailgate with a drop-down lower half and a floor that slides out to help with loading heavy items.
