In the high-end SUV market, Range Rover and Porsche Cayenne have a very high voice. Not only are they expensive and powerful, but their sales are also very good. In addition, the BMW X5 is also a choice that many wealthy people cannot ignore. This model plays an important role in high-end SUV development and is even called the "King of the Road" by many car enthusiasts.

Currently, the price of the BMW X5 in Malaysia is between RM 480,800-618,800, which is basically in line with the Mercedes-Benz GLE and Audi Q7, but many consumers prefer the BMW X5, which is inseparable from its strong capabilities.

The BMW X5 offers a variety of high-performance engine options, including economical four-cylinder models, balanced and powerful six-cylinder models, and passionate eight-cylinder models, meeting the needs of different drivers. In the Malaysian market, the BMW X5 is equipped with a 3.0T engine, with a maximum horsepower of an astounding 489Ps and a maximum torque of 700N·m, making the vehicle perform well in acceleration and overtaking.

Excellent Acceleration Performance: Thanks to the powerful engine, the acceleration time of the BMW X5 ranges from 4.8 seconds to 5.5 seconds, ensuring that the vehicle can quickly respond to the driver's instructions in any situation and guarantee the continuity of power output.
2. Advanced Suspension System
Adjustable Suspension System: The BMW X5 is equipped with an advanced suspension system, such as adaptive suspension and air suspension. These systems can automatically adjust the suspension stiffness and height according to road conditions and driver preferences, providing excellent comfort and stability.

In addition, the BMW X5 also comes with a dynamic stability control system and dynamic traction control system, ensuring the vehicle remains stable in corners and provides excellent handling. Even at high speeds or sudden lane changes, the BMW X5 can provide drivers with a stable, precise driving experience.
3. Comfort and Luxury Sensation

The Interior Luxury: The interior of the BMW X5 uses high-quality materials and exquisite decoration, creating a luxurious atmosphere. The seats offer a variety of adjustments, including electric adjustments, memory functions, and heating/ventilation options, to ensure ride comfort. The Spacious Space: The X5's wheelbase is as long as 2975mm, providing passengers with a spacious ride space, and the trunk can also meet the loading needs of a large capacity.
It is worth noting that in terms of size, the wheel design of the BMW X5 is very large, ahead of other brands.
20-inch rims:
Front tire specification model: 275/45 R20
Rear tire specification model: 275/45 R20
21-inch rims:
Front tire specification model: 275/40 R21
Rear tire specification model: 275/40 R21
(Similarly, some models may have different specifications for the rear tires, such as 315/35 R21)

Large rims not only give the vehicle a stronger visual impact, making the entire vehicle look more luxurious and sporty, but also ensure vehicle stability at high speeds, wider tires can provide better grip, especially in slippery or complex road conditions. At the same time, paired with low-profile tires, it helps to lower the vehicle's center of gravity, and it is also very helpful when off-roading.
In conclusion, as a highly anticipated luxury SUV, the BMW X5 has launched multiple generations of models. Since its debut in 1999, many of its technologies have been referenced and adopted by other luxury SUVs. Today, it continues to demonstrate exceptional power, advanced suspension systems, and a blend of comfort and luxury, showcasing outstanding performance and leading advantages in road driving.

Perodua Myvi and Bezza may undergo major upgrades in 2026
After the update, the Bezza will no longer be just a low-cost alternative but a core model in the Perodua system with greater market competitiveness and brand premium potential. The upgrade of the Myvi is not to be unconventional but to strengthen the brand and market, ensuring that the Myvi continues to maintain its irreplaceable position in the new round of product competition.

Perodua Traz VS Ativa, which one is more worth buying?
Traz, as a newly launched mid-sized SUV, offers more spacious room and mainstream power compared to small SUVs, but its pricing appears slightly higher than that of Ativa. Ativa, on the other hand, is Perodua's long-time best-selling small SUV with more affordable pricing and a balanced combination of power and tech features.

Will the Toyota Yaris Cross come to Malaysia? If it comes, how much will it sell for?
The launch of Perodua Traz indicates that the market size of small SUVs in Malaysia has been expanding in recent years. However, the question naturally shifts back to Toyota. As a brand with the most comprehensive product line and a strong foundation in both the SUV and hybrid sectors, will Toyota choose the Yaris Cross to participate in this small SUV competition?

Perodua Traz VS Toyota Yaris Cross, where does the Traz fall short?
Before the official launch of the Perodua Traz, market expectations were actually very high because it shares the same DNGA platform as the Toyota Yaris Cross. However, sharing the same platform does not equate to the same experience, and the Traz's final performance has indeed been disappointing. Perhaps it is precisely because of the delayed launch that it has almost no competitiveness in the current competitive environment.

Why is the Toyota Sienna so popular with so many people?
In Malaysia, most family MPVs choose Toyota Alphard, Vellfire, or Kia Carnival. These models each have their advantages in luxury, space, or brand influence, but models that truly balance large space, multifunctional practicality, fuel efficiency, and reliability are rarely seen.
