Arrow 2013 MY X5 Ordering Guide from Spring 2012

BMW X5: M Sport Edition for particularly dynamic performance.

13.02.2012

In the spring of 2012, the BMW X5 model range will be complemented by a BMW M Performance Automobile, which in addition to a 280 kW/381 hp diesel power plant with innovative three-stage turbocharging, also features an M-specific suspension setting and a particularly impressive and aerodynamically optimised design.

Simultaneously with the market launch of the BMW X5 M50d, the new M Sport Edition will be offered for all other model variants. It contributes effectively towards a further enhancement of the supremely powerful and agile characteristics of the Sports Activity Vehicle, thereby also emphasising its visual qualities.

The M Sport Edition comprises M exterior features for optimising air guidance, 20-inch M light alloys including tyre mix, BMW Individual High Gloss Shadow Line, Xenon lights (standard on the BMW X5 xDrive50i and the BMW X5 xDrive40d) and Adaptive Cornering Headlights. The BMW X5 xDrive50i is also equipped with pneumatic rear wheel suspension including automatic levelling. For all other model variants, the M Sport Edition offers a sporty suspension setting.

The sporting ambience in the interior is emphasised by the M leather-clad steering wheel with shift paddles, BMW Individual anthracite roof lining, BMW Individual interiors trim strips in black piano lacquer, doorsills boasting the M logo, stainless steel pedals and the M footrest for the driver. The M Sport Edition also includes electrically adjustable sports seats. The new M Alcantara/Black Nappa leather combination is available exclusively in conjunction with the M Sport Edition.

Over and above that, the range of special equipment for the BMW X5 will in future also include the optional heated steering wheel in conjunction with the M leather-clad steering wheel. From the spring of 2012, the colour variant Orion Silver metallic will be available as a new exterior paint finish.

Question for LeMans

From the following excerpt from the release above it appears to say that in 2013 the M-Sport Steering Wheel will also be heated. Is this for Europe only or will we be able to have a heated M-Sport Steering Wheel in the USA as well when ordering the M-Sport Pack along with the Cold Weather Package.

If accurate, would this apply to the M-Sport Wheel with paddle shifters as well as the M-Sport wheel without paddles?

Finally, does a heated M-Sport Wheel require the M-Sport Pack AND the M-Performance Pack AND the Cold Weather Package or can one get it with just ordering the M-Sport Package and the Cold Weather Package?

Sorry for all the questions but a few of us are confused as to the potential availability of a heated M-sport Steering Wheel.

Here is the excerpt:
"Over and above that, the range of special equipment for the BMW X5 will in future also include the optional heated steering wheel in conjunction with the M leather-clad steering wheel."

Thanks in advance.

The PDF attached above should answer your question.

Based on that set of rules it doesn't look good

"248 cannot be ordered with ZMP"

248 = Heated Steering Wheel
ZMP = M-Sport Package

Probably why BMW charges $600 instead of the normal $750 for the Cold Weather Package when you also order the M-Sports Package as they are valuing the Heated Steering Wheel at $150

Thank you for posting the ordering guide and the rules. Appreciate it.

Does that mean the Xenon lights are standard on all 40d's?
Because I'm looking at getting a 40d at the moment. And the options list the dealership gave me says Bi-Xenon are a $2k option.
I'm in Australia btw.

This press release is from BMW global. I suggest you check with local Australian BMW dealer or BMW of Australia.
