What is new on the 2026 BMW X5 for the Canadian market?
The 2026 BMW X5 (G05 LCI) receives a meaningful mid-cycle update: the kidney grille is redesigned with standard LED contour lighting on all trims, and the front and rear bumpers are restyled. The inline-six engine in the xDrive40i increases to 381 hp (from 375 hp on the 2025) through mild-hybrid 48V system optimisation. The X5 xDrive50e (PHEV) retains its 489 hp architecture but adopts a 29.5 kWh battery for 95 km WLTP electric range — approximately 80 km in Canadian winter use. BMW Canada adds the Black Shadow Edition as an exclusive option package for 2026. The iDrive 9 curved 14.9-inch display is standard on all trims.
