See why the 2024 BMW X5 specs outshine the competition, including the Mercedes-Benz GLE-Class, when scheduling a test drive at our BMW dealership in Boulder, CO.

High-End Styling

Luxury comes naturally within the 2024 BMW X5 interior. Offering spacious and comfortable seating options for five, the 2024 BMW X5 is outfitted with Sensafin Upholstery or available extended Merino leather seats with standard power front sport seats. All 2024 BMW X5 trim levels from our BMW dealership in Boulder, CO, feature heated front seats, ambient lighting, multi-zone automatic climate control and more cargo space with the rear seats folded.

You can also upgrade for a Sky Lounge LED roof, a heated steering wheel, ventilated front seats and a heated armrest. Select configurations of the 2024 X5 offer four-zone automatic climate control, massaging front seats and heated and cooled cup holders. A comparison of the 2024 BMW X5 vs 2024 Mercedes GLE shows that the 2024 Mercedes GLE does offer standard heated front seats, available Nappa leather seats and ambient lighting. However, only premium trims offer ventilated front seats and a heated armrest.

The exterior of the 2024 BMW X5 features a sleek, yet sporty profile with a panoramic moonroof, 20-inch V-Spoke wheels and a two-piece glass panel roof. Power folding heated side mirrors come standard in addition to satin aluminum roof rails. Premium trims offer soft close automatic doors. When comparing the 2024 BMW X5 vs 2024 Mercedes GLE, you’ll find that the GLE does feature 19-inch or 22-inch wheels with a chrome grille and lip spoiler. However, you don’t get the moonroof or glass panel roof that comes with the 2024 BMW X5 from our BMW dealership in Boulder, CO.

Premium 48-Volt Hybrid System

It’s a more sustainable way to drive when behind the wheel of the 2024 BMW X5. The base configurations feature a 375-horsepower BMW TwinPower Turbo 3.0-liter inline 6-cylinder engine that pairs with eBoost 48-volt mild hybrid technology as well as an 8-speed automatic transmission. You can also upgrade to a 483-horsepower 3.0-liter BMW TwinPower Turbocharged inline 6-cylinder that features an integrated electric motor and intelligent all-wheel drive.

But wait, there’s more. The 2024 BMW X5 from Gebhardt BMW is available with a 523-horsepower 4.4-liter BMW M TwinPower Turbo V8 engine with eBoost 48-volt mild hybrid technology featuring multiple driving modes or a plug-in hybrid 4.4-liter BMW M TwinPower Turbo V8. Discover all-electric power for 40 miles with select 2024 BMW X5 trim levels.

When comparing the power of the 2024 BMW X5 vs 2024 Mercedes GLE, there really is no contest. The 2024 Mercedes GLE only offers a standard 255-horsepower turbocharged 2.0-liter inline-4 engine with mild hybrid drive while pairing with a 9-speed automatic transmission and 4MATIC^® all-wheel drive. You must upgrade for the power of a 375-horsepower 3.0-liter inline-6 with mild hybrid drive or a 248-horsepower 2.0L inline-4 plug-in hybrid powertrain.

The 2024 Mercedes GLE does offer a 510-horsepower 4.0-liter V8 bi-turbo engine with mild-hybrid power and an AMG-enhanced 3.0-liter inline-6 turbo but neither of the top-of-the-line models match the horsepower of the 2024 BMW X5.

Stand-Out Safety

What makes the 2024 BMW X5 stand out even more is that all trims are equipped with the Active Driving Assistant. This suite of driver assistance technologies includes speed limit information, lane departure warnings, frontal collision warnings, front and rear park distance control and active blind spot detection. An upgrade adds on lane keeping assist and lane change assist.

A side by side look at safety in the 2024 BMW X5 vs 2024 Mercedes GLE shows that the GLE also offers blind spot assist, collision mitigation and electronic stability control, but only premium trims offer automated parking sensors, pedestrian detection and automated emergency braking.

Exceptional Interior Technology

This luxury SUV features the Intelligent Personal Assistant that allows you to use voice recognition software to issue commands, as well as smartphone syncing via wireless Apple CarPlay^® and Android^™ Auto and wireless charging. The BMW Curved display with a 12.3-inch instrument cluster and 14.9-inch central information display is also a key part of the 2024 BMW X5 interior.

While the base configurations feature a 10-speaker audio system, USB ports and BMW ConnectedDrive^® services, you can upgrade for the Highway Assistant, gesture control and a Bowers & Wilkins^® Diamond surround sound operating system. When comparing the technology of the 2024 BMW X5 vs 2024 Mercedes GLE, you’ll find that this SUV does feature a 12.3-inch infotainment system touchscreen display and smartphone syncing. The MBUX system is also standard but only premium trims offer a Burmester^® sound system.
